Dubas: «When it's a good player (Karlsson) you really want, that's why you stare up at the ceiling instead of sleeping.»
I'm never looking for approval,» Dubas said � adding he did talk to Letang, as

Dubas is proving that the Toronto Maple Leafs were right to move away from him when they did. While it was nice that he looped the stars of the Penguins in, not having to look for approval or have a second set of ears on his plans can be a dangerous thing.
While on the surface, not needing approval seems like a good thing, if track record proves anything, Dubas doesn't care about draft capital and will continue to do wherever it takes to ice the team he wants.
