recall that Bruce Broudreau in the offseason said that the leafs under Keefe immediately jump to offense when a play breaks up in their zone. He said this worked in the season but it hurt them in the playoffs because its not a disciplined style. You can see how certain Leafs under Keefe would blow by their defensive coverage and then swing back...seemingly looking to jump to offense. Going to be interesting to see if Berube changes it. Heres an example of Marner doing it in the season.
Im already seeing a style under Berube that should be more effective in the playoffs.
Marner already reaching to stick check, while his body is moving out of the zone
play is broken and Leafs recover, Marner looks back to see if Leafs gain control
Marner keeps skating and receives breakaway pass for hat trick
