Sheldon Keefe destroys the Leafs after game seven loss to the Bruins
After the Leafs dropped yet another game 7 last night to the Boston Bruins in overtime, Sheldon Keefe wasn't shy in his post-game press conference.
The Toronto Maple Leafs suffered another failure to get the job done in game 7, unable to find the back of the net more than once and losing in overtime to the Boston Bruins. This was a major disappointment for Leaf fans and players, as they battled back from a 3-1 deficit in the series.
After the game, Sheldon Keefe took the podium in his post-game press conference and answered some difficult questions about his core players and the Leafs in general. He noted that when teams play big games against the Leafs, they let the Leafs beat themselves.

Fans and analysts did not take lightly the comments, using them as a point that Sheldon Keefe is not the coach that the Leafs need right now.
I can name 10 people, at least, both on and off the ice that should not be with the Toronto Maple Leafs next season.
Sheldon Keefe is near the top of the list. These postgame comments last night, on their own, are a fireable offense
There are definitely going to be some big changes happening to the Leafs this offseason, the question will become who will remain in the dressing room come October.
