Maybe the lines would have more chemistry if Keefe allowed them to breath a bit before f***ing around with everything.
I dunno how anyone was ok with the first 4 months of Keefe let alone the last 4 years

I'd probably want to see how this team fares in the playoffs first. I'm not overly down on them just yet because they finally won that elusive playoff round while also now having potentially changed some of the supporting cast for the better (according to the playoff stats).

It’s time to fire Keefe. His system doesn’t work and it’s time for something different.

Go Leafs Go
Jarnkrok on the first line is not working and Kamph is a 4th line/pk centre. JT line looks good and he should leave it alone imho. Knies maybe deserves a good look on the first line I think, he’s a great puck hound. Third line is pretty thin though, maybe centring Domi-Jarnkrok-Holmberg/Gregor, not a lot of options unfortunately

Fire Keefe. He resorts to Nylander-Matthews-Marner when desparate. It has never worked, but he still does it. Bertuzzi has no role, Marner plays 24 mins a night, Keefe has been out coached in every single playoffs.

Honestly I don’t get why he doesn’t just swap Mitch and Willy like do Mitch and jt have an issue or something you know it works and we need a top 4 defencemen like yesterday domi and reeves /kampf need to be sent out you could add klingberg and see if you can bring bacc 2 defencemen shuffle the decc bt
He should have been fired at least two maybe three times already. The fact he’s still around is bewildering.
If Sullivan becomes available, grab him.
If Sullivan becomes available, grab him.
Over the past 3 seasons, Nylander-Matthews-Marner has a 69.59 xGF% and a 71.43 GF%. It has absolutely worked.

The Leafs have been good enough to make it past the 1st round more than once. It’s the coach.
Keefe starts Kampf in OT to win the draw. Boston controls the draw, Kampf plays the first 1:30 of OT with Marner. Now u have to juggle all your pairs. What a mess. Keefe with horrific decisions every game.
Kampf in OT is the ultimate "afraid of losing" decision. Rookie bullshit.
And where did this logic lead them?
To Kampf being accidently triple-shifted in 3 on 3 OT.
FO% doesn't matter. It's 3 on 3, there's turnovers every play, the goalies gotta make a save anyway. You're not scoring with f***ing David Kampf as one of the 3 guys. The coach is such a f***ing moron for doing this.

Head to head against the combined efforts of Jim Montgomery coaching on top of a Bruce Cassidy foundation, you can see a pretty clear case for firing Sheldon Keefe. Sloppy, unprepared teams where nobody is ever playing to their capabilities for a sustained amount of time. Random line shuffling not meant to solve any problems but create new ones.
HEAVY DUTY
"Nobody ever suspects the butterfly."
Team has been good to avoid skids for most of the last 3 seasons. Keefe wont survive one and we might be a loss away from officially being in one.
