Maple Leafs Fire Head Coach Craig Berube - Bleacher Nation
"The Toronto Maple Leafs have a new general manager, and own the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NHL Draft. But, after missing the playoffs, the changes in Toronto don't figure to be over. And, on Wednesday morning, head coach Craig Berube was instructed to update his LinkedIn profile."
"Berube spent two seasons behind the Leafs' bench after more than five seasons as the head coach of the St. Louis Blues. He famously took over the head gig in St. Louis during the 2018-19 season and led them to a Stanley Cup championship."
"With teams - I'm staring at the Oilers - looking to potentially make a coaching change of their own this summer, Berube doesn't figure to be out of work for long if he wants to stay in the league."
"Pierre LeBrun tweeted "Berube had two more years on his deal paying him $4.5M per so the Leafs still on the hook for that unless Berube gets hired elsewhere.""
The Toronto Maple Leafs have a new general manager and own the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NHL Draft. After missing the playoffs, further changes in Toronto are expected. Craig Berube, the head coach, was instructed to update his LinkedIn profile. Berube previously coached the St. Louis Blues for more than five seasons and took over the head role in 2018-19, leading the team to a Stanley Cup championship. With other teams potentially considering coaching changes, Berube could find work elsewhere if he chooses to stay in the league. His contract details indicate Toronto remains responsible for his remaining salary unless he is hired by another team.
