[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Dcan't embed the tweet right now but he's out in Calgary.

There were heavy rumours last week he was joining Berube staff, looks like that is happening

Interesting. Flames agreed to this so it would have to be a promotion to be another NHL job.

I don't think it HAS to be but it's odd if it's not

Ran one of the worst powerplays I've ever seen and I've seen some doozies.

Marc Savard the one that took a very big hit Marc Savard?

Surprising.

Leafs aren't playing right now because their PP went 1/23 it can't get worse.

Decent chance he goes to Toronto.

Dangle is talking like its a done deal on his channel.

Maybe he has inside information.

Maybe he has inside information.

He knows the guy personnally (played with him at a charity IIRC) and already texted him when Berube was hired to know if he was joining him. Told him at the time he could not say anything.

I guess he can now. Sounds like a done deal given the past history between Berube and Savard.

He knows him. He said he texted him earlier

Calgary has putrid talent on their pp. That’s not on the coach.

Huberdeau is a f***ing dud
Kadri isn’t a skilled guy
No PP QB…. And no weegar is not a qb and never has been
Mangipane is a not a pp guy
Backlund is a defensive player

Pretty abysmal

True, but he went from OHL HC to NHL AC x2 very rapidly. I think it's safe to assume he wouldn't risk stability for a non nhl gig.

Kadri is a very skilled player

Huberdeau should at the minimum be a PP leach and be able to still get some apples there as he has the vision still

The other 3 cant comment on to much, but Weegar + Magniapane seems pretty good and capable of being top 10ish PP

Try watching the one Todd Reirden ran and get back to me on this.

I don't follow coaches. But if he comes to Toronto as rumoured.... I don't want his PP coaching abilities lol. Calgary regressed further on the PP this year to 23rd.

Given Toronto has issues on the PP in the latter part of seasons and in the playoffs, I don't think this would be a wise move.

Now, if Marner or JT don't waive their NMC, it will probably be the same as this year lol.

Kadri has some skills but cheap shotting guys and whining don't really help on the power play.

You should see what Rocky Thompson is doing in Philly

 

[Mobiandi]

Didn’t think it would get worse than Kirk Muller. Savard somehow crawled under a bar that was on the floor.

Leafs have better PP personnel than us but I’m happy he’s gone

 

[Pucklington]

Title is incorrect. It was mutual.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Can't be worse than what we had... 26th ranked PP after March and 4% in the playoffs with 0 adjustments.

With guys like Matthews, Marner, Tavares and Nylander lol

Leafs twigs will have the finest tape jobs in the world.
