I’d be interested to see Keefe with a properly constructed roster. The Leafs have always been so top heavy and never seemed to focus on the D as much as they should have. Assuming Grier builds this team the right way it might not be a bad hire honestly. Either way, I think at the very least he should be interviewed, for the sake of due diligence and all.
I actually like the idea of Keefe. I have my doubt about him being the ideal coach to get a team over the hump but for a rebuilding team that looks to have a lot of offensive talent I see a lot of upside.
I also don't mind that he will bring insight on Marner and if he is a player that Grier might look at to accelerate the rebuild. IMO Marner is a couple years too old to be the ideal candidate but given his history with Patty and Jumbo I think there is a path for this too happen and Keefe's insight would be huge.
