Today a new report has indicated that the Toronto Maple Leafs are not done making changes to their coaching staff and more moves are expected in the coming days.

After hiring Craig Berube as their head coach the Toronto Maple Leafs did not update the status of the rest of their coaching staff. A new report from Nick Alberga has revealed that the team plans to make several assistant coaching changes.

With Craig Berube officially behind the bench in Toronto, there's word that some of the current coaching staff will not be returning.

Current assistant coaches Mike Van Run, Manny Malholtra, Guy Boucher, and Dean Chynoweth are under evaluation. Mike Van Ryn likely has the best chance to retain his position as he was a member of Craig Berube's staff when he was the head coach in St. Louis.

Happy for Craig Berube, gets reunited with Mike Van Ryn. Can assume Toronto is making a significant commitment both financially and in years. Country club days are over, hope Toronto players are ready, there's a new Chief in town. #Leafsforever

With the hiring of former Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe by the New Jersey Devils there has been some speculation that whoever is let go will have a new home in short order.

Guy Boucher, Mike Van Ryn, Manny Malhotra and Dean Chynoweth were with Sheldon Keefe on the Maple Leafs coaching staff. We'll see if that makes up some part of the #NJDevils new coaching staff.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have not announced these moves yet but once the assistant coaches are relieved of their duties and their replacements are hired we will provide the latest updates.
