The Toronto Maple Leafs have not played to expectations this season and general manager Brad Treliving is not looking to point fingers at others for the team’s struggles.

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Treliving noted that it has been a disappointing start and, ultimately, the buck stops with him when it comes to owning the blame.

“Obviously, as we sit here today, we’re not where we want to be or where we envision to be. We’ve underperformed to this point. And I take full responsibility,” Treliving told reporters. “I’m in charge of the hockey department. I’ve put the people in place on the ice, off the ice. So the responsibility lies with myself. And we start today and every day trying to get ourselves back up and going and improve where we are.”
