Sheldon Keefe rips the Leafs a new one at practice on Tuesday
Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe expects more from the team during training camp and is cracking down on them to ensure they meet those expectations.
It seems Keefe doesn't just want more focus from the buds regarding practice. He demands more. As stated above, it's not common to see the Leafs' head coach respond in such a way when expecting increased effort from the team.
This video shows that no one is escaping Keefe's drills either, as goalies Ilya Samsonov and Matt Murray are getting ready at the line while others begin sprinting.
Seeing Keefe pushing the players so hard during preseason practice sets a tone for how the coach will approach team focus during the regular season.
The Leafs take on the Habs tomorrow at home in their third preseason game following the doubleheader on Saturday, resulting in one win and one loss. Wednesday's game may also be the first time fans will see Matt Murray in the net while wearing blue and white.
