READ: Toronto Maple Leafs fire one of their coaches!
Many wondered what kind of changes would be coming for the Toronto Maple Leafs this offseason after yet another early playoff exit, and until this point not much has been done.
According to NHL Insider Chris Johnston, the Maple Leafs have fired goaltending coach Steve Briere. The team will apparently be analyzing each department and searching for a new goaltending coach for next season.
While I do not believe the goaltending coach is mainly behind the Leafs poor goaltending, these are some pretty horrible stats:
Steve Briere was with the Leafs for seven seasons, and here's how their SV% ranked:
2015-16: .904 (25th)
2016-17: .912 (13th)
2017-18: .917 (5th)
