Who should be the next Leafs coach?

[HockeyVirus]

Try and be realistic . I am wondering who your choice is and if you can give a reasoning why. I suspect we'll have the pick of the lot, we're a big market who can pay well and have a good team. You even get us a few rounds in you are made

Sullivan or Berube would be fine choices IMO.

This guy:

 

[hamzarocks]

Sullivan is horrible please dont go after him. Pens PP is as crap as the leafs

Berube is pretty meh. Hes just okay

I would see Woodcroft as an optiom with Bruce Boudreau as PP coach

 

[fahad203]

A.I. I am working on it

It really can't be worse than Keefe

 

[Leafy Undergrowth]

Anyone that doesn't coddle fashion-obsessed pretty boys. And can organize a PP.

 

[Wrong Wilson]

Q or Berube

 

[banks]

There's actually a few good options available right now, which is great.

I'd go for Gerard Galant. He has a tendency to get lots out of depth players, he's got lots of experience. But most importantly he's a firm coach that isn't a dinosaur.

Berube would be meh, if the core is exact same. Q would excite me a lot even if the core stays the same. There is a lot of work to do on the roster regardless.

 

[fahad203]

Gallant and Q would be my choice. Both with experience in cup finals

Q actually managed young stars.

Coach I don't want is Sullivan

 

[TMLegend]

I wanted Laviolette last year if Keefe was fired, I don't see an option out there this year I'm totally on board with if they make a change.

Zero interest in a Woodcroft or a players coach. I want a hard ass, demanding coach who is detail oriented.

I'll go with a different name. Claude Julien.

Al Iafrate? That works for me.

 

[Buds17]

Brind'Amour or Cooper. Realistically...Berube?

 

[Mr_Fun]

I'd be willing to give Berube a shot. I don't know if that's the absolute best option out there, but we definitely need a different looking coaching staff. With the way our team is built, the PP should be top 5 in the league (minimum) in the PO's; not that disorganized piece of crap from units 1 and 2.

No to Woody for me. Finding another coach who found ways to fail with a top heavy team isn't a move forward. Knoblauch came out of nowhere basically to make that club a contender. If they can find someone who has actually won something I am on board with that.

I don't know about Sullivan. He won when his stars were in their prime but with their decline and the Pens limited depth he couldn't keep it up. But if you look at his 46 win lineup from 21-22 that was not a great team. We know from experience having a couple guys shooting the lights out at the top of the roster doesn't take you too far. I would still trust him more than Woodcroft but they won't be asking for my vote

 

[57 Years No Cup]

Gallant or Q.

 

[sxvnert]

Want Q but berube will definitely be the coach of this team next year.
