Speculation: Now that Keefe is gone what happens to the rest of the staff?

[Anthrax442]

I’d gladly take him as the Leafs’ coach if it meant he’d resign from his current job.

We never had a coach of colour yet.

I’m pretty sure Berube wants to bring Steve Ott with him.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I’d keep Sanford as goalie coach, I think he’s done a good job with what he’s had to work with. Everyone else can kick rocks.

He hasn't done a good job at all whatever he did with Sammy clearly didn't work.

How have you judged it's the goalie coaches fault, vs. the player? Please site evidence.

How can you say he did a good job with the goaltending we were given? something CLEARLY didn't work, they can both f*** off into the sun.

A non binary transgender of colour - checks even more boxes.

Good lord please don't give them any ideas.

I think AI is going to be the next big, do they have rights and souls?

We should get ahead of the curve and start now.

Fire them all out of the clown canon. The message should be sent that nobody is safe.

Instead minimal movement will happen. Nobody rocks the boat and the business of not succeeding will be good again.

The team's press release announcing Keefe's firing included "decisions regarding the remainder of the coaching staff will follow."

That suggests to me that they haven't decided what to do. Pagnotta mentioned yesterday that part of the discussions that Berube is having with teams, is about how much control he has over the rest of the bench - Berube wants to bring in at least 1 of his own assistants.

I imagine the Leafs are holding off on deciding what to do with the rest of the staff until they have made inroads with their new head coach. Apparently, Berube's assistant is someone who has recent experience being a head coach in the NHL - so if you bring both Berube and his preferred assistant in, you can analyze what their strengths & weaknesses are relative to the rest of the staff, and presumably decide what to do from there.

Clear the them all out and give him A-Z on staff. You run the bench and I run the roster but will value your input.

Easy peasy.

So what you are saying, is we had great goaltenders, and the coach screwed it up?

So it was the coach who was responsible for Samsonov's great run in the middle of the season... was the coach great then? Or was it just because of the player? Did the player screw up in the playoffs, or was that the coaches fault?

Again, instead of another post full of hysteria, and little substance, please provide a concrete reason.... or is this just another post in a long history of reactionary posting, without substance?

MLSE aren't going to cut costs by any means, but we are entering a new era with ownership where they simply won't be throwing blank cheques at every problem now.

The consistent losing has very much changed the calculus internally.

They need to cut bait and restructure. Dont worry the parents will just raise your service fees and ask the gov for more grants to improve rural areas.

here is an idea why don't YOU actually provide Evdience to the contary? all I have to prove they were both shit was look at Samsonov's overall numbers, he was unplayable for about 4 months, he mentally crumbled, we know that because he was sent to the minors, he didn't play there but he was sent there.

how can you defend either one> they are both shit

You made a statement, that lacks any evidence... just more wild BS. Cheers.

what BS> was he not sent to the AHL because he mentally crumbled ? that happened if the goaltender that you are coaching gets sent to the minors because he's mentally weak it means 2 things.

1 Yes he does suck

2 you aren't doing your job as a coach.

both things can be and are true.

Nah - they probably don't.

The ownership setup works fine, though the murkiness that we're about to enter without Tanenbaum bridging the two telecomms is going to be really interesting to watch unfold.

Please stop

a female of colour - checks a bunch of boxes

So being a female and being of colour means you can never be hired on merit?

I don’t care if it pisses people off but this line of thinking is what pisses me off about people on this board.stop saying shit just to say it or think it’s funny. Not everyone on this board is Caucasian. Some of us are black or other ethnicities and it’s a major slap in the face to read comments like that.

FYI, Vancouver has two assistant GM’s who are female and that club has been dominant all year and one handles all the contracts on the team, I don’t see a bad contract on Vancouver and their cap structure is fantastic.

While I do agree diversity hiring/hiring just to check a box isn’t the best practice; there are people of colour or women who can do the job and be successful.

I personally think it’s Berube as the head, Todd or Bruce as the assistant coach. Both Todd and Bruce have a record running successful PP’s

lighten up, smile ... stress is a nasty thing ... this attitude that finds every statement offensive is growing old

 

[trellaine201]

I can almost guarantee the new coach of this team will request his own assistants whoever that maybe , current or new.

I don't think anybody has said there weren't of course there are.

But people DO get hired in this day and age just to tick boxes it happens
