JD reacts to MLSE President and CEO Keith Pelley's press conference following the firing of Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving. JD and Justin Bourne, co-host of Real Kyper and Bourne, explain what they tookaway from Pelley's comments about being "data-driven" and a planning a retool versus a rebuild. JD and Justin then debate if the Leafs should continue building around Auston Matthews. JD wonders if there's too many "if's" and what the argument is for the Leafs to be back in playoff contention next season.
