Changing the coach isn’t going to make a difference. Keefe may not be perfect… he may in fact be far from it. But he is not the problem. You can’t have half your cap in 4 forwards… with those forwards consistently underperforming when the stakes are highest. And all those four have no move clauses. Pelley, Shanny and Tre doing the Friday presser. Which means Keefe out but Shanny and core four stays in tact. Book it - next spring, Leafs will lose in the first round again - with the same core four. Only one explanation why Shanny isn’t fired: MLSE doesn’t care about contending for a Cup. That’s why this has been allowed to go on as long as it has.

I didn’t mean to suggest that the coach would do those things in the post season, by that time you absolutely expect your best players to find another gear. I haven’t seen Keefe do this in any regular season therefore It doesn’t appear to me as an outsider that the Leafs have a culture of accountability. So saying that this is only on the players and not the coach I don’t agree with. There have been many examples of teams that do nothing to the roster, change coaches and they are a completely different team in terms of performance and results.

Yep, but it's too late now. Holl can't stay healthy and Samsonov a head case. Get a goalie. That's where they made their mistake putting all that money on forwards and trying to cheap it out in goal. Can't be done.

He came up with a good business plan that the owners accepted. His hockey plan has been a marked failure. Presidents are responsible for the business plans and ensuring the money keeps coming in. Shanahan is also responsible for the hockey plan which is different from the business plan.

In my opinion , Brendan Shanahan should be the first to go for giving way to much lead way for a very young and inexperienced GM Kyle Dubas to screw so many things up with contracts etc , secondly, the power play coach who really let the team down when we needed a PP, we need a bonafide goalie but also , real defensemen that can protect, lastly, our 3rd and 4th line are absolutely time wasters, I guess with so much money on 5 players including Morgan, hard to put a decent 3 and 4th line out there. I love Marner, but it is becoming more obvious that he was spoiled through JR’s due to his natural talent, but is not playoff caliber , he cares more about what hat and suit to wear to the games, I also love Morgan Riley, but he did not show up for the playoffs, so maybe his best days are behind him. Anyways, just another disappointing back seat coach.

If Leafs management is smart, they will give this man a chance to run it back with this squad. He deserves it at this point. We never had a full team against Boston and got unlucky with the PP.

Ok.. just some food for thought. I understand the way this team has been put together has clearly not been effective.. and paying 4-5 people the bulk of your salary cap long term in this day and age.. not the recipe for success. That said.. I think this team needs to get beyond the point where its carrying the weight of almost 60 years of unsuccessful history on its shoulders. The media just absolutely obliterates theses players and coaches. I don't know about you.. but I don't necessarily do my best work with people breathing down my neck. Is it their job..especially during crunch time to come up with the big performances? Simple answer is yes.. but the landscape in Toronto is absolutely ridiculous. Could you imagine being an up and coming.. member of a company.. full of promise and potential.. and dropped in the middle of a company that hasn't had success in almost 60 years, with people constantly reminding you of all of these short comings and after 6 or 7 of those ALMOST SIXTY YEARS people are turning on you pissed because you couldn't turn it all around? I get it.. they want to be paid handsomely for that promise and potential, and it lacks followthrough and execution, but the walls always seem like they are closing in with Toronto like that trash compactor scene from Star Wars. I'm not sure they are ever going to have success that way, and the fact they have enticed so many big name players to sign for periods of time regardless of how brief is surprising.

Tell me anyone that thought that the leafs were supposed to win that series. The facts are that Toronto exceeded the expectations by showing grit and took it to game 7 overtime.

The Leafs claim to have surrounded themselves with the experts in hockey business. If they came up short for 8 years then all the experts are not the experts that they think. It is time to look at things differently from top to bottom. if the same staff has not accomplished the end result, it is time to make changes that may not be popular. Staff in charge of Assessments of players need to be re-examined as they have not come through. You must recognize that some people can only take you to a certain level and then they need to be replaced like Marner who is good during a regular season but not effective during the playoffs.
