Hahahahaha.

When Matthews doesn’t score, Marner does nothing again…fire the coach I guess.

Should've been fired immediately after the handshake line comment

They need a coach who knows how to establish a winning culture, not some sadistic authoritarian but a real leader

 

[Crazy Monkey]

Now do Marner

 

[Chainshot]

Now do Shanny.

 

[Jacob]

We'll give you Mike Sullivan for a 2nd round pick.

 

[DownIsTheNewUp]

I liked Keefe alright, said some silly things every now and then but I think he was a decent coach. Always easiest to change a coach but you have to think more is coming for this team.

 

[Warden of the North]

Craig Berube incoming

 

[lawrence]

Should be shanny at this point.

 

[Amadeus]

Changes need to happen. Keefe had his chances and couldn't make the adjustment quick enough. More changes are needed beginning with Marner.

[Love]

Now fire Shanahan too

 

[Guardian17]

Not surprising.

 

[leafsfan5]

He’s a decent coach who should do well on another team

It’s time for a new face in Toronto, though

 

[Dr Pepper]

Long time coming, he was outclassed and outcoached every single year once the playoffs started.

That said, he'll probably still end up behind the bench of another team come October.

Can change coach as much as you want

Aint gunna win with the core 4... need to break that mess up

 

[Warden of the North]

Anyways, Keefe is a good coach I think (he makes infuriating decisions sometimes, but every coach does). I think if he went to a smaller market he'd do well. He didn't handle the media very well and talked himself into corners/problems more then talk himself out of problems.

 

[llamateizer]

easier to fire a coach than a team.
expected move

Well at most theres only one year left as JTs contract is up.

But I think Marner is out this summer anyways.

 

[Seb]

Oh man and they just missed the boat on Travis Green!

Keefe has also had his warts while coaching the Leafs. Special teams is the big one. He's handcuffed regarding the offence when he has had such a poor defence regarding their offensive capabilities, and the stars have not pulled their weight. But he should've figured out something for the power play. Even teams that suck ass can usually do that if they try hard enough.

He's a good coach, and should receive another coaching job at some point. And he will probably have a pretty good career as an NHL coach.

 

[Beau Knows]

They should have moved on from him last summer, gave the core one last shot with a new coach. Then if they failed again, it's time for the players to move.

Now you're in a place where you've fired the coach, but can you really run it back with the same core again? I think they still need to shake it up. Move Marner, and see if somehow you can unload Tavares.

 

[Esq]

Literally WTF is Keefe supposed to have done differently? Who I am kidding, this is prob on the level of a mercy killing for him.
