Craig Berube and Toronto Maple Leafs have finally hired the final member of the team's coaching staff

After much debate and multiple interviews, the Toronto Maple Leafs have officially made the decision to hire Marc Savard. This decision comes after the Maple Leafs relieved Guy Boucher of his coaching duties last week.

The Maple Leafs have made the decision to completely revamp their entire coaching staff in an attempt to finally get it through their playoff struggles. This hiring is a great move as Savard will manage the team's power play a similar role to which he had last season with the Calgary Flames.

The Leafs made the announcement on their X account this afternoon.
