Man Skinner had a dang-it vs. Van

LOL Oilers.

I think Montgomery told Pasta that if he wants to go for it, he can go for it, what I don't understand is why Pasta wanted to fight Matthew Tkachuk, a fight he is certain top get destroyed in

Just got a notification from TSN: Keefe has been fired

Surprise surprise lol

All the leaf fans I usually chat with seem super happy about this.

Is berube a favorite?

Quenville? Too soon?

Cooper would be cool but apparently he’s got another year that people didn’t know about or it was misreported.

Not a Leafs fan. Quenneville is way too soon and that is too big of a profile market to do that.

Cooper, Sullivan, and Brind'amour are NOT going to TML. This is fantasy; Leafs just need to get over those guys.

Berube, Boudreau, Gallant, Evason, and maybe McLellan are the options

As an outsider but blues fan, besides Berube for bias reasons, that list doesn’t move the needle for me at all.

I like Berube for tor cause he always came across as a huge players coach, but also was strict with the minutes. He never like did stuff out of spite. He didn’t really have a “doghouse”, didn’t seem to over communicate, also didn’t seem to overload unnecessarily - blues played simple hockey. It also seemed like his assistants had a lot of influence, more so than when we had hitch, which ultimately let our defense be very aggressive at times, but restrained more so than not. Lines were mixed about as often as average, with hitch being more extreme. A lot of stability, and a good guy to be the first one rowing in a specific direction.

Sullivan could be interesting. Some weird timeline where Toronto and Pittsburg exchange coaches.

People aint gonna like it but if not Berube and if Brind'Amour does not make it to market I could see MLSE go you know what **** it


Quenville


Bettman would have to approve but if those two are off the market I could very well see it happen. And yes the Media and ABC but how much more patience does MLSE have

4 year window with Matthew starts 2024-2025 not a lot of time

Berube has to be the new coach IMO

Probs but NJ apparently also had heavy interest before and who knows

If they get him and Brind'Amour extends would not be surprised

As the options after those two be meh

I like Evason and McLellan isn't bad, but yeah, agreed.

I'm not a fan of Woodcroft and as a NYR fan, no team should get anywhere near Gallant.

Berube would be good for torontos media because he doesn’t put up with questions that have obvious answers. He conditions reporters to either ask good questions or risk being dead panned. He’s very concise and doesn’t get baited into saying a ton.

Evason is just a lateral or some would argue a downgrade move to Keefe

McLellan's a maybe but it feels like a slight upgrade


I think they need someone's whose done it all but unlike Babcock isnt a bully or a creep

Actually I'm a big fan of Dean Evason.

He got a lot out of a group in MIN in 22-23 that lacked:
-a true number 1 center
-a top 6 winger capable of scoring 20
-a top 4 LD

He still guided them to an impressive 103 points

If what's being said about Paul Coffey on twitter's correct for what he did yesterday

Should be fired

Like there has to be a camera that would have caught what he did in the Canucks arena

If there was a derogatory gesture then there should be consequences.

I don't know what a "racist hand gesture" is however? Seriously. Guess I'm naive about that

Im just gonna leave it to the NHL guys as there be cams and for sure there be one or 2 angles that would have caught it and if confirmed he should be immediately dismissed

BREAKING: Filip Chytil has took part in the warm-up. We'll see if he plays

What was the coaching carousel rumor?

Keefe to PIT
Sullivan to NJD
Green to OTT
Jacques Martin to TOR

Anyone know why Kochetkov is starting and not Freddy?

Probs hurt himself again or they not trusting Freddie due to being down 0-2

As man Freddie is such an odd goalie he can be great and then all of a sudden cant stop a beachball

Yea I dont see Jacques coming

MLSE is probs waiting to see what happens with Brind'Amour as with the news Leafs are also assessing their assistants you can kind of see the writing on the wall

May see the entire CAR coaching staff here and be paid very handsomely

As would be just pocket change for MLSE lul

There was a tweet from Kevin Weekes the other day saying there were talks in the works that signal Babcock's $7m/year record may get broken....

And thats why if CAR messes this up and Brind'Amour and his staff became available this FA we all could see MLSE and Brad go hello making that tweet come true

Here's the money and security you all have been waiting for come on in


Now is he TOR only choice no but Berube wont get that kind of deal nor any of the other guys out there. Even if the NHL reinstated Quenville doubt he gets a deal past Babcock either

Should be interesting
