## Resource

Toronto Maple Leafs fire head coach Craig Berube as organizational shift signals a new era could this be the change the team needed to make on multiple fronts? Mike DiStefano and Dave Morassutti react to the Maple Leafs' bold move, debating what this means for Auston Matthews, potential coaching candidates like Bruce Cassidy, Manny Malhotra, and David Carle, and the future direction of the franchise. They also debate whether GM John Chayka and Berube's traditional style were even a potential match, the financial implications of the firing, and how a new bench boss might unlock the team’s offensive potential.
