Blues fan here - there's a misunderstanding here of who Berube is, and what kind of coaching he does. Yes, he demands positional and character responsibility from his players - accountability - but a Nylander is not going to have problems. Berube is not a defense-forst coach or anything. Feels like Toronto media is treating this hire like hes a Jacques LeMaire or something. He loves his offense to be creative, and his defense to jump up and contribute offensively. What he doesn't particularly like are low effort players, or puck hogs. But he won a Cup with a happy Tarasenko. Hes not lost on the attack at all.

What was wrong with Paul Maurice 😮

[@JLNjedi]

Hard to pay over 10 million for those players when they are not worth it. Coach don’t matter when you can’t produce in the playoffs. Enjoy losing again. By the time the Leafs figure it out Montreal and Ottawa will be done their rebuilds and knocking them out. Reminds me of Oakland Raiders, hey Leaf fans I hear Arizona is looking for a team in a few years 😮😂

[@steverobinson1353]

And hes fired already lmao, poor guy gonna get screwed over.

[@RoamHockey]

100% spot on, I am just grateful the Leafs did not get Quenneville..not worried at all as an opposing fan that they got Berube lol

[@wbj2000]

Hard as nails head coach .. kitty soft core four... sounds like a great combination.

I had to stop watching… Laughable analysis if you even want to call it that. Dumb sports-related cliches after cliche.
