My favourite Sheldon post of all time (audio should be on). I didn't agree with some of the stuff he did but I genuinely liked him and will miss him behind the Leafs bench. All the best, you silver fox.

Sheldon Keefe, for all of his bench mismanagement, baffling lineup decisions, and occasional lack of vertebral integrity, is probably going to take these tough lessons and turn them into a very successful sophomore coaching campaign with whichever team hires him next.
People, don’t forget how miserable this team was before they fired Babcock. Keefe helped these guys find joy in playing *hockey* again.
There is reason to be optimistic, but make no mistake — I’m not thrilled. I’m not exactly dancing on his funeral pyre today. Good luck, Keefe. Thanks for your service to the crest.
did you know that when a player scores a hat trick, the NHL gives them $1000 to donate to their charity of choice

to all the new buntsy fans via pens, this is my fave scarborough mike interview from exactly a yr ago (march 18, 2023.. whoa); touring his frenetic energy childhood of playing every sport possible, obtaining financial assistance to play AAA, being selected by dubas twice (thrice now), and 4 seasons in the AHL (which led to him becoming a Calder finalist at 26yo (21-22 season) and every senior citizen joke twitter could throw at him)
after that nomination there was a flurry of bunts-featured media in his second/last season w the leafs (22-23), finally a real appreciation for him, getting to do the fashion shoots kinda interviews his lineys auston and mitchy got to do.
truly if kyle had not been fired, he would've re-signed bunts immediately. so ofc here we are in pittsburgh now :)) i don't think mikey regrets having to leave the leafs. he's finally getting his bag as well as respect for his play
