Here's what Dubas said in a recent interview:
"Tree is a great person who has done well over decades in management. There are also a lot of great people I thoroughly enjoyed working with in Toronto during my time there. I am very happy for both (the Maple Leafs and Treliving) that they will have the chance to work together and think it's a great fit for all." - Kyle Dubas on Brad Treliving

Brad Treliving also talked about Kyle Dubas recently, providing insight into their relationship.
"So when we left the Flames, it took a while to get through all that. And then when this thing came up, yeah, you talked about it, there were lots of emotions. Like, Kyle is a good friend." - Brad Treliving
Of course, when something like that happens, any relationship would have taken a hit. But by talking about it, the most important thing came through: their friendship.
