Mike Van Ryn and Derek Lalonde will not be returning for the 2026-27 season.
There was no talk about the great PP coach (he he) Sullivan if he will return or not. Most likely not with John Gruden, Daniel Alfredsson and Brad Werenka being added to the coaching staff.
The D mostly sucked so Van Ryn, himself a mediocre D, can go away. No issue there.
Uncle Fester seemed to get the Leafs to have one of the best PKs in the NHL despite being a trash team. One of the few bright spots the Leafs had last year was their strong PK. Would have been wise to keep that PK intact especially with the number of bottom-six grinders and FO winners they added. Probably should have kept him over adding Werenka.
Brad Werenka has almost zero experience with his time mostly spent at the University of Calgary. This would be his first job in the NHL. Pretty stupid hiring.
Good move to promote Gruden. He earned it and frankly he could be the head coach right now and it would be fine.
Alfredsson is a Senator piece of shit. Retarded hiring and you can tell it’s directly connected to Sundin.
