Lol I didn’t even realize that Samsonov has an even worse SV% this playoffs than his .890 in the season.

.883! (frank)ing pathetic that it’s taken Keefe this long to at least try Woll.

And it’s not even certain yet. Sammy could be starting.

Would Mitchy waive to Calgary? Big enough market for exposure, play with some talent, far less spotlight than Toronto - pad those reg season points for his next fleecing.

Someone said it last board (think drexl) - Markstrom would be available? its a start.

Not gonna pretend to be an NHL GM so I have no clue how these guys determine the value personally - but there are a few things Tre can use and a few players over three that would look great on Buds.

Markstrom
Andersson
Coleman (but maybe contract is a bit steep...again not a GM though so who knows)

I cant see them firing Keefe before his new contract even starts
what a mess

maybe they will. but I doubt it.

Wait, you ACTUALLY think they'll run Keefe back when we get bounced first round?!?!

Benoit in your top 4 doesnt seem optimal
hes a 6/7th D on good teams.

That's why he's in our top 4

Yes, just like last year

Toss Woll in once the series is over, then go back to the starter who failed again

Definition of insanity

you think he is automatically gone if they lose?

what the F was the point of adding Reaves, Lyubushkin and Edmundson
- senstroll

That's because it was never the issue. People here just wanted to think it was. Easy excuse. Now it's the goaltending or whatever might be the issue.

There's no perfect formula to winning. Just need to play the games and get a little lucky.

He's the next bullet in the chamber. He's what? 1 - 4 or 1 - 5 in game 1s in series? Even if you think he's good, it's always the coach fired.

I've predicted he was gonna get fired 2 the past two years. I can't do it again.

I would be LIVID if he's not. How many times are we going to "run it back?"

I don’t really care who coaches.

I think a new coach can give the weight out of your shoes feeling for a bit…but that ends.

Come playoff time the coach doesn’t really matter to me.

You and me (any many others) both. How he survived this long is mind boggling.

Oh, good. At least the end is in sight

He won’t even be on the plane back if they get bounced tomorrow-

i hope it happens, just looks so dumb to sign extensions and fire before that even starts

That's why he's in our top 4
- Whipper

He wasn’t even top 4 for us ….

Good dude - warrior - decent D man …. But a 6 or 7 on an actual contender -

I don't think its too common for a team to have a coach coach a season with an expiring contract.

It was either fire him last offseason or sign him and see what happens.

I am sure Tre got the go ahead from the team last summer that if he wants to fire him after this one then fire him.

I just want to see how glorious his beard is already

Full on grey having to watch these shenanigans

Sure looks dumb but wouldn't be the worst.

The problem is Matty and Nylander apparently have been ill enough to not play games. Makes it difficult to properly rate the team in the playoffs. Some individual players but not the team as a whole.

Shanny told Tree that he could fire Keefe but that Shanny liked him as the coach. Therefore, he wasn't fired.

Yeah the coaching pool last offseason was pretty garbage, I understood keeping him around.

I like Keefe.

I could care less what happens to him, winning this series or not.

We can get mad at decisions but the next coach will make decisions we disagree with too.

Every year is different.

This year brings a new set of undeniable and impossible barriers to overcome with issues to the top 3 forwards.

You pay the best players in the league to perform on the ice at any cost, and this playoff round doesn’t count as evidence against.

Go 2024-2025 leafs!

McLellan, Ruff, Granato and Hasktol all just fired before their new contract kicked in.
