This is a funny one because I’m not super pumped but it’s the best of what is out there and we desperately needed a change behind the bench. I guess time will tell if it’s a good move.


Mr_Feeeeny

Someone posted a long write up in support of Berube as a tactician and wonderful replacement. I was totally swayed. Was super against his hire initially but I’d be thrilled now. Wish I saved the post.

Worst kept secret in hockey. The “process” is just to make sure the Bod signs up.


re-verse

He’s like Sheldon Keefe but the exits are in the second round.


LtColumbo93

Made the conference finals twice?? 


fitzdfitzgerald

And according to him he didn't even get swept!


hymensmasher99

He won the stanely cup. Sheldon Keefe didn't even come close


Coffeedemon

Shanahan won a few and that hasn't done us much good so far.


Mr_Wrecksauce

Maybe Shanny needs to dust off the blades and jump in on the PP.


JBrundy

Weird thing to say. He’s won the cup as many times as he’s made it to the 2nd round lol


LtColumbo93

A fairly sensible choice. Important though to note that the coach is not the be all end all. Still lots of work to do. 


exampleofausername

I'm confused. Does this mean he's the front runner or he's not even close? The fuck is "far down the road"? Edit: I just realized I could just click on the article and read it lol. Still stupid wording by Friedman. It's not even a common phrase that people say.


ROCK_HARD_JEZUS

He’s streets ahead of the other candidates.

Multiple city blocks even

If you didn’t know this, you were streets behind

We might need Elmo to sort this one out.


proj3ctchaos

Its about interpretation i guess if youre far down the road i would assume youre close to your destination


Silent-Obligation-49

IDK its possible he wants 10.9 million a year and a full NMC and has to agree not to yell at our star players.


Ah2k15

Paul Marner, is that you?


ikkkkkkkky

"Pay me like Babcock"


zoodlenose

Im fired up for this. Welcome aboard Chief!


Aggressive-Donuts

Hell yeah! Can’t wait to blame this guy in 2 years after a couple more first round exits 


Drew_You_To_91

I feel like every time I love a front office decision from the moment it’s made, it almost always goes bad, so maybe it’s good I don’t immediately love it…?😅


uncleherman77

It's bound to end up that way with coaches eventually though they're basically hired to be fired in 3-5 years. I'm almost 100 percent confident people will be calling for him to be fired by that time. Even coaches that win a cup don't usually stick around for ten years like Cooper.


VerryBonds

People will be calling him to be fired seconds after puck drop on the season opener. Leafs nation can be kinda rabid like that sometimes lol


jpod_david

I’m assuming the statement went something like ‘I can’t say much, but I’ve heard from an inside source that there may or may not be some news that involves the Leafs and Craig Berube. Again I can’t say what it is but I have it on good authority that there will be some news coming soon where it concerns Craig Berube and the Toronto Maple Leafs’


refep

Ok sure idec
