Berube was hired by the Leafs back in May and it seems as thoigh fans of the blue and white are not only excited and ready for the change, but the players seem to be in the same boat, Ryan Reaves especially. He had a plethora of optimism when talking about the Leafs new head coach during a sit down with NHL.com's Dave McCarthy on Sirius XM's Sunday Brunch.
The Leafs under Sheldon Keefe seemed to be lacking the "playoff hockey" type of play style at times and often looked like they had lost their confidence last season. Berube brings a strong coaching style that instills a team first mentality and a high intensity play style, something that the Leafs have lacked many times before and specifically in the post-season.
There are still a couple of months to kill before training camp begins and we don't know what the team will look like yet, entirely. However, there is a certain element of excitement surrounding this new coaching hire in Toronto and folks are eager to see what he can accomplish in his first year of his 4-year deal in Toronto.
