They need to get a guy who has a history of winning and knows what it takes to run a successful franchise. Horachek and Eakins are not those coaches.
Some ideas maybe no one else is talking about

League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.
Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.
We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.
Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid
How's that history of winning working out lately? Quinn, Burns, Maurice, Wilson, Carlyle, they all have a history of winning and (one assumes) know what it takes to run a successful franchise, so I don't really follow this logic. That was the entire point of the article - to stop thinking this way because it doesn't work.
But it makes a lot more sense to choose between coaches whose respective records are 36-63-14 (Eakins) and 33-62-7 (Horachek), right?
So the Leafs should do the complete opposite of what would make sense and that makes sense to you?
You argue the opposite of common sense with every single one of your posts.
