Kyle Dubas' announcement that he had no plans to make a significant trade during this year's deadline came as a surprise to many. The Leafs' General Manager faces a challenging dilemma – he is currently without a contract for the next season, and if the team experiences another early playoff exit, Dubas may be on his way out of "The Six". However, if he decides to make a big move and trade valuable assets, only to lose in the first round, the situation could get even worse.
Button believes that Dubas owes it to the team to make a trade, as it shows faith in the group's potential. The outcome of Dubas' decision remains to be seen, and if it doesn't work out, he will become a free agent next season.
