Management took a different approach this year, one that swerved away from past precedent: They would speak on Thursday, three days after players and Keefe. (Who exactly will speak was left unclear. GM Brad Treliving is a given. Team president Brendan Shanahan not so much. He’s spoken only sporadically throughout his decade in charge.)

Which makes for three days of uncertainty about which direction the Leafs plan to take, including whether Keefe will return next season.

What we do know is that more than a year’s worth of missteps from the people in charge are partly to blame for another lost Leafs season.

So Keefe's getting the axe for upper management's failure to improve the team.

Most likely. "Hey look how much money we spent on forwards."

Probably but hopefully not. May have actually been his best year as coach. Without good coaching, I doubt this year's team is even a playoff team and they really did a lot with little. Here's hoping Trevliing can admit his mistakes and commit to fixing them.

What do y'all think of Shanahan? An ex-player team president surprises me. Did he come with front office experience?
