Berube hockey is a myth. They won last year cuz of goaltending and their stars getting them out of trouble.
Iron-Over
I am happy this validates what we have seen. A different coach should be better but the reality is that this team cannot compete with the best teams in the league. We need a rebuild due to giving away picks for years and not developing young talent to augment the core.

Honestly, as much as I hate Berube and his style of hockey, and Brad Trilivings GMing…. Our hockey team has no fight and no care about winning games. They play like they’re in it for the paycheck and have no heart… we had this home stretch and even the last game with Darryl Sittler and his grandsons giving a speech to the team and we came out and lost to Buffalo 😒 yes the coach and GM needs to go but so do a lot of these players.. don’t care if it’s everyone but JT, Laughton and maybe Nylander or Matthew’s but we need to do something about the lack of Give a fucks this team has.

at least it makes gambling easier knowing this is where they rank

What exactly does Berube do again? They don’t defend well, and they can’t generate offense. What is his specialty?

we stink buddy

Literally every good stat completely collapsed under Berube and Treliving. Leafs were elite in some of these categories before Tre ‘fixed ‘ the D, lol.
Some of us tried to tell you all this but people just refused to believe statistical info of any kind because glasses man bad.

Posted this in a comment, but adding here for context.
Over Keefe’s last 3 seasons, he was 7th in shots, 10th in expected goals against, and 7th in high danger scoring chances against. They were 15th in goals against, but that was due to being 19th in save %.
Keefe had a much worse defense core but got alot more out of the team. He just never got the saves. By contract, Berube gave up way more in terms of quantity and quality of shots against, but he got the saves Keefe never did.
Lends validity to the phrase « Show me a good coach and I’ll show you a good goalie ». I really wish Keefe got last years goaltending during some of his later years.

If you watch one of their games these numbers come as no surprise. They cannot play any semblance of defence whether its many of their forwards or the defence. Watching them constantly turning over the puck in the neutral zone, getting hemmed in their own zone for long stretches regularly. Watching the opposition gain entry into their zone easily. Their offence is often one and done. No sustained pressure, no urgency, slow and out of position. The numbers reflect what your eyes are seeing.

It’s incredible that we’re doing as good as we are. How have we won any games?

We should be in last place , tanking for the number one pick .

This team is cooked. Fire everyone. Start with Tre and Berube, Trade everyone except Knies, Cowan, and Matthews, JT — Load up on picks and prospects and start again. This era is over.

But to hell with us doomers, right!? We should just keep running it back over and over again!

Explains why it’s so boring to watch. We have no speed to our game and we don’t shoot.
How many of buffalos goals on Tuesday were from point shots getting tipped or cresting chaos in the crease?

Berube has gotta go. There is a real mismatch between the players and coaching system.
NervousBreakdown
Why? This makes it pretty clear where the major problem lies. I like seeing stuff like this because it gives me hope that the team will can Berube and Treliving and get back to playing fun hockey.

Hey. On the positive side, they aren’t *all* 32nd. That’s glass half full kinda numbers!

All hail Berube. The most over-hyped head coach this side of Randy Carlyle

Berube says they score enough goals…did he bump his head or something
