"Peter DeBoer, who was the subject of much speculation to potentially replace Craig Berube as the Maple Leafs' coach, sent a note through a friend to Berube saying, 'Forget all this noise. I'm not involved here, and it's not happening.' Found out about it today, sent a note to DeBoer about it and all he said was 'I've been on the other side of that. I didn't like the fact that I was on this side of it this time."
""Well, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals of what happens with this," Treliving said when asked about his vote of confidence extending to Berube if the Leafs continue to lose. "We've got a good coach. We've got to continue to make our team better. We've got areas that we've got to get better in. It's not lost on us where the team's at. We live it every day. But I think we've got a real good coach.""
Peter DeBoer sent a note through a friend to Craig Berube telling him to 'forget all this noise' and that he was not involved in replacing Berube. DeBoer said he had been on the other side of such speculation and did not like being the target this time. Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving provided a second vote of confidence for Berube on December 23 and had previously supported him on November 18. Treliving stressed that the team has a good coach and that roster and organizational improvements are still needed. The Leafs won consecutive games after assistant Marc Savard was fired. Both DeBoer and Berube have experienced intense speculation about their futures.
