Despite having a year left on his coach’s contract, and having every chance to bring in his own guy, Toronto Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving signed Sheldon Keefe to a contract extension.
Don’t get me wrong, Sheldon Keefe has been a fantastic head coach within the Toronto Maple Leafs organization, starting with the Toronto Marlies eight years ago, but this move continues to showcase why Kyle Dubas should still be the man in-charge.
Heading into the last season of a contract can be uncomfortable, but that feeling can also add pressure, which is great in professional sports.
