Boston is their Cup Final. They'd probably feel really great if they were to come back and win. Roles reversed, I know I would. Boston has been their Daddy for years now.
Unless he puts up some Gretzky type of performance to comeback and win the series, he's very likely done. Facing a LOT of heat from the entire city. Fans, media, teammates, absolutely everybody, yeah he has a NMC I know, but when he's getting ripped to shreds like this, I think there's a pretty decent chance he'll be willing to waive. If not let him walk.
I agree, but I personally don't think dumping Keefe will be the solution to all the Leafs issues. Getting rid of Dubas was a step in the right direction, but ultimately it's Shanahan and his whole philosophy which I think is what needs to change. All these overpriced contracts were handed out during his tenure, so ultimately he is on the hook for the consequences (as he should be). Until Shanahan goes, any changes will really be window dressing. The problem is whether the organization has gotten to the point where they acknowledge "The Shanaplan" has not been a recipe for success.
Nylander was talking to Matthews there not Marner.
Another example of him/her not checking up on (easily verifiable) facts before posting false statements...
