Craig Berube on the coaching staff’s contributions to the Leafs hitting 40 wins: “We brought in the predictability of how to play the game on the checking side, and these guys know how to score goals — unlike me”

Did you feel like Monday’s win was an example of the team getting back to north-south principles?

Berube: Definitely. If you look at the first period and the predictability and directness of going north-south, putting pucks at the net, recovering them, not hesitating, moving them quickly, shooting it again, and recovering them, we were on our toes. We won a lot of loose-puck recoveries. There were a lot of shot attempts. We didn’t go back with the puck; we got it going north. We have to do the same tonight.
