Sheldon Keefe makes a Shocking Decision Concerning Morgan Rielly
The Leafs have been struggling lately, they recently lost 7-2 to the Islanders, which was a pretty bad way to end their small win streak against the Senators and the Hurricanes.
Sheldon Keefe, the head coach of the Leafs, has been experimenting with lines in order to find the perfect lines for the playoffs. This experimentation clearly did not favour them against the Islanders, but Keefe has made a change for tonight's match against the Panthers.
Keefe Benches Rielly
For tonight's match against the Panthers the Leafs will be going 11-7, with Morgan Rielly not playing in this game. T.J. Brodie and Luke Schenn are playing tonight.
Hopefully Keefe can figure out the right lines soon, because, as one fan pointed out, finding the right lines is good, but allowing the players to build chemistry with the linemates is just as important. The constant shuffling is not allowing this important element of a good team.
We will have to see if the Leafs can recover from their 7-2 loss by beating the Panthers.
