Berube got the call this morning after spending several hours with Chayka and Sundin on Saturday discussing all aspects of the roster. Leafs management wanting to start with a clean slate.

General Manager John Chayka announced today that the club has parted ways with head coach Craig Berube

There’s nothing in his background to suggest this is anything more than a one-off.

@LeafsRundown Raddysh is a need. His numbers and back ground stats suggest this wasn’t a one off year

Rublev on playing Sinner next in Rome
*starts laughing*
Andrey: “How many Masters in a row has he won already?"
Prakash: "five"
Andrey: "How many, 20 something matches in a row? He's getting closer to losing. The more he wins the more he gets closer." 😂
Prakash: "You must be very excited for the challenge."
Andrey: "Uhhh I'm fine. Uhh. I'm not excited, I'm not bad. I'm fine 😂 If you ask me if I prefer to play someone else, of course I prefer to play someone else.
😂 But if I would like to challenge myself against Jannik, yes as well. I would like to challenge myself against Jannik."

Nick Kypreos: "Craig Berube [has] yet to get a vote of confidence from management that [he's] returning next season." sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/wh…

"There is very little they can say that will change his mind, it's more about what they do"
@reporterchris shared the latest on Auston Matthews' future with #LeafsForever and why actions speak louder than words when it comes to Matthews' commitment to the team.
English

@JeffVeillette Still one of the greatest playoff droppers of his generation.
English

I know it's "Matthews' turn" and I know he hasn't met expectations but "never scored a goal that actually mattered" is just patently bullshit lol
Even with his underperformance, only ten players have scored more playoff Game Winning Goals in the last decade

@joeyferg This is the only explanation that makes any sense.
English

Craig Berube is likely to return as head coach of the Maple Leafs next season. The meeting that took place this past weekend between him and Leafs GM John Chayka was an audit of this team, player by player, and Berube’s view of where they should be moving forward. If they can schedule the meeting with Matthews, that could be very telling, but the expectation from management and from the head coach is that Auston Matthews will be back and in training camp.
“It sure seems like Craig Berube is likely going to return as head coach.”
“From a management standpoint, I’d want to know what the hesitation is beyond the obvious. We can all see the areas of need.
So I think Matthews is going to want some explanation as to what John Chayka and Mats Sundin see moving forward. I can’t imagine he withholds his services, right? But does he eventually, maybe not in this meeting, but sometime in the not too distant future, say, ‘Okay, yeah, I’m not in this for the long term. I’m going to honor my contract, but I’m telling you now I’m not in this for the long term’?”

@CanadasLeafs The only way that's true is if it was preordained by Pelley/ownership.
English

If true, strike one against the new regime.

@sludgewilliams The literally had to make up fake teams for Marner to statpad against 😭.

@Leafslatest He stat padded against bad teams with us, too.

MITCH MARNER HAS HIS FIRST #STANLEYCUP PLAYOFF HAT TRICK 🎩
English

@samida10 @BizNasty2point0 He was so traumatized that he went back in time to the ASG to ask Vegas players what it's like playing there.
English

@BizNasty2point0 Remember last year when the leafs won their division then lost to the eventual cup winners & leafs fans vandalized his home and people rung him out on social media and eventually chased him out of town now he’s got a hatty and leads in points. Leafs have the worst fan base ever
English

@BizNasty2point0 Kadri will take him out on behalf of Leafs Nation.
English

@RdmHabsFan @NathanGraviteh He floated around for 4 games and made a nice dish to McDavid.
English

@NathanGraviteh It's always been a Toronto problem, Marner was clutch for Canada even at 4 Nations last year
English

@NathanGraviteh He's finally in the position he was always supposed to be: the 4th or 5th best player on a good team.
English

@JeffVeillette He should worry less about roster construction and more about not playing like a $13M second-line centre.
English

Insane to me how many people haven’t figured out that this isn’t CJ doomering and more Matthews’ camp trying to pressure the Toronto FO towards non-complacency and making moves to improve this summer

Chris Johnston: I can tell you with strong sourcing on this, is that [Auston Matthews] needs time to think about things and he's just not totally sure what's best for his future and whether that lies with the Leafs - Chris Johnston Show (5/7)
