The Toronto Maple Leafs put up a tough fight in game seven but ended up losing in overtime, leading to intense criticism of their coach, Sheldon Keefe.
His post-game press conference hinted at expecting dismissal. Now, footage of his pre-game speech has surfaced, disappointing Maple Leafs fans who are eager to see Keefe replaced as head coach.
While the footage only showed a portion of the pre-game routine, it appeared lackluster, with Keefe simply advising his team to relax, breathe, and have fun. This drew comparisons to more passionate coaches like Craig Berube. Predictably, social media responses were harsh, with many calling Keefe's speech pathetic. It's highly unlikely he'll stay on as coach beyond this week.
