I may be in the minority, but id prefer Gallant over Berube.

These guys couldn’t handle Babcock do you think they’re gonna be able to deal with actual real tough guys?…. 🧐🧐🥴🥴🥴🥴

If 16 would’ve had that little hissy fit on the bench, chief would’ve gone straight lawnmower starter on him right there during the game… 🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯💯

Can they trade a coach?
- Symba007

And doing some googling, apparently in 1987 the Nordiques traded Michel Bergeron to the Rangers for a 1st round draft pick and $75,000.

There are a wild amount of teams looking for a head coach.

I don't think Berube lasts long.

- Santo_44

He may not.
Or he may take his time to see how things go post playoffs.
If the leafs are his number 1 preferred spot. He'll wait a bit.
Could only be 4-7 days.
Or the leafs announce tonight.
Who knows.

Bruins started their series against Panthers last year minus both 1C and 2C. Might not be exactly comparable but it was a big hit.
- Nasty_Duck

For sure. My wife has been saying for years that the Leafs are jinxed and I’m starting to think that she’s right.

Yeah, that rings a bell.

And IIRC, it was a "screw the Leafs" deal - some other team did the exact same thing and weren't required to provide compensation.

OK, I fell really far down an internet rabbit hole, but would you pay $2,000 to golf and have lunch with Bo Jackson?

I would buy a Marner jersey, just so I can burn it in a parking lot.

No Strong willed independent minded coach is going to come here… it’s why they chose Keefe -

Shannascam already showed his cards. He’s going to back the players over the coach and when the coach says, hey we need to get rid of one these guys - Core 4 - for us to be successful.. . Well, that’s gonna be it for that coach as well -

Bruins didn't have a 1 or 2C all season this year and still did well
- Symba007


They overachieved this year - thought they would be a bubble team at best. They concentrated more on D this year, which somewhat offset the loss of players.

But last year Bergeron was their most important player and Krecji has always had a history of good playoff performances.

As I said not exactly the same as Leafs this year, but losing those 2 just before post season started hurt.

Biz reporting, Berube could be going to new jersey

Edit:
Sorry Biz reporting that Rumourboys (whoever the (frank) they are) are reporting that Berube and new jersey

Im sure there will be a lot of this nonsense going on.

I don't give a flying f@ck what the players can "handle." You're getting paid millions of dollars, you produce or your life is going to be miserable. Simple, really.

It’s almost unheard of for an executive in pro sports to get this long of a run with so little success in the postseason, all while clinging to an unorthodox roster construction that has backfired again and again.

In Toronto, accountability has come for everyone but the person running the show and the core group of five players he has endorsed and defended for years.

Wow … pitchforks are out of shannascam-
