He seems like a nice guy but we've gotta hold him accountable... a 2 game losing streak is unacceptable and if it happens get those "Fire Keefe" chants going.

Keefe likes to change his lines often so I don't think his answer would be meaningful tbh. He's a very active coach, will bring different guys in and change around the bottom / top 6 weekly. Either you love that or hate that haha.
Last season he played Nylander at center in pre-season / first several games, at LW, and at RW. He played Marner on RD several games when there were injuries. He had Tavares / Nylander running the third line individually at times and other times had them mixed up in the top 6. He played Tavares at LW as well, played Domi everywhere from 3rd line C to top line winger, etc.
Side? Keefe said Timo is our new goalie!
As long as he keeps players in their natural positions, line shuffling is fine.

Toronto hardened him. He’ll be talking to Novo like a friend during pressers by the fall with how much easier of a time he’ll have here.

I do love when he plays just to see what stupid shit he’s going to do.

You are in luck… we have a few part time positions available! Good news is it comes with great benefits and the ability to move to full time.

He referenced interviewing people who he knew weren't gonna get the job to get different ideas and probably to have a future reference point for when those guys became ready.
Side? Keefe said Timo is our new goalie!
Meh, he'd probably still be better than Jon Gillies.

Imagine not hiring the guy you're desperate to turn Alex holtz into. Crazy!
How much do coaches get paid at the most?
Pandolfo would have been a great hire but I would have been shocked if he was willing to leave BU. He’s got a great gig, salary and benefits, no travel and none of the bullshit of the NHL. The only way to have lured him would have been to offer so much money and term that he simply couldn’t refuse. Enough to set him up more or less for life. 8 million or more guaranteed, that sort of thing. Not worth it. I don’t think many pro coaches get that sort of compensation. But I don’t know.
If you really want to be a NJ fan go back to the thread you started on the main board and clean it up. Nj discussion on the main board goes off the rails really quickly. I trust based on your knowledge of the Leafs they are your favorite team? You should know better than to actually court opinion on the main boards about anything. It's like asking a bunch of Cannibals what wine to pair with a human liver and fava beans.

Well to be fair Fitz’s idea of communication is direct and transparent, not media savvy and polished

How good a speaker Fitz is with the media is a bit of an odd answer, for me.
He’s not a polished nor smooth speaker but, imo, he is generally clear, open, and sincere seeming.
I imagine in more personal settings, one on ones or group meetings, the latter aspects of his speaking create a better connection and buy-in than the former aspects hold back.
