SAD NEWS: Toronto maple leafs announced that William Nylander is Leaving immediately after Facing…..
The Toronto Maple Leafs have come up with fresh speculations about their coaching staff. According to a tweet from TSN Radio’s First Up show, NHL insider Darren Dreger has suggested that Lane Lambert, formerly with the New York Islanders, could join Craig Berube’s staff.
This potential addition comes as the Maple Leafs look to rebuild and strengthen their coaching team following recent changes.
On May 17, the Maple Leafs appointed Craig Berube as their new head coach, replacing Sheldon Keefe, who was dismissed on May 9. Berube has previously served as a coach for the Philadelphia Flyers and the St. Louis Blues.
His time with the Blues was impressive, as he led them to a Stanley Cup win in 2019 after joining in mid-season.
Despite his success, Berube was removed from his duties by the Blues in December 2023.
He had been working as an analyst for Turner Sports prior to his current hiring by the Leafs
In his career, Berube has a respectable record of 281-190-72 in 543 regular-season games and a 27-31 record in 58 Stanley Cup Playoff games.
He was a big factor in the Blues’ dramatic turnaround win in 2019.
Toronto Maple Leafs are coming off a disappointing season where they were eliminated by the Boston Bruins in the Eastern Conference First Round in seven games.
Despite solid regular-season performance, finishing third in the Atlantic Division with 102 points, their playoff struggles continued.
