[Alter] Dubas on reacting to fans in Tampa. Said he was defending what was being said about Morgan Rielly: Sometimes I’m an emotional person. That’s me. Some people may not care for it. That’s me. I have to realize that.

The passion
Dubas has nothing to apologize for. Period.
Kyle didn’t and shouldn’t apologize for being emotional. You can tell how much he cares about this team. Compared to some of the body language and robot-like interviews we see from the players, it’s refreshing to see.
Sounds like some of the idiots who talked shit about Mo in the GTD here.
I’m kind of pissed the reporter phrased that as something negative.
I’m never going to get mad at any one in the organization for showing passion and getting riled up. As long as they don’t cross the line and hit a fan or something of the sort.
I may be biased, but Dubas and Rielly seem like two of the best human beings in hockey. If the league had more of them we’d be in a better spot. Nothing to apologize for.
King shit. Extend the man.
Man fuck everyone except the Leafs. Who gives a shit.
He should have just apologized for it and moved on. No wonder the players lack accountability, it is an organization wide problem.
Don’t want to be dramatic, but I wonder if maybe it was something LGBTQ related given how anti trans/gay the entire state or Florida is.
Give this man an extension. He shows more heart than the damn players
That’s BS I think…..they were calling Dubas Harry Potter….which is darn hilarious. He’s slightly older though.
He also said, on two seperate occasions in the same interview, that he was defending the fans as well as Rielly. Good on him. He’s a breath of fresh air. Young and vibrant and setting the tone for how he wants his team to play. Don’t change one bit Kyle.
