Now new Toronto Maple Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe isn’t going to change everything over night.
While the Leafs added several new strategies (the aggressive puck swarming, the activated defenseman, the line-change circle back) the lineup still featured Frederick Gauthier and Cody Ceci, two guys I doubt we’ll continue to see a lot of.
Some changes will occur right away, and some will be more casual. Either way it will be fun, exciting and interesting to watch.
And in the meantime, buy putting to bed their six game losing streak, the Leafs put the rest of the league on notice:
They’re back, and they’re still a contender.
