Toronto Maple Leafs make changes to end of year media availability
The Toronto Maple Leafs will begin their end-of-year media availability tomorrow after they were eliminated by the Boston Bruins. However, NHL insider Chris Johnston just revealed the team is making some major changes to how they are doing it this year.
Johnston revealed that the players alongside head coach Sheldon Keefe will be addressing the media tomorrow morning. The rest of the team's management will not be talking to the media tomorrow.
The #leafs will hold an end-of-season availability for players and head coach Sheldon Keefe tomorrow, with management not due to speak until Thursday.
That's a significant departure from past protocol in these parts.

He continued with another post that will have Leafs fans interests peaked. He implied that some major changed could be coming to the team, adding that the organization did not specify which members of management will be addressing the media. We will just have to wait and see what happens, but this could potentially mean that someone like Brendan Shanahan may be on the way out soon.
Further to #leafs end-of-season media plans: The volume in Toronto will be turned up to 12 until Thursday.
The team didn't specify which member(s) of management will speak then. Questions remain for players and Sheldon Keefe tomorrow, but all of them are twisting in the wind.
The team already moved on from general manager Kyle Dubas last season. Could this be the year Brendan Shanahan gets the boot? What about Sheldon Keefe? Lots of questions facing the Maple Leafs this offseason.
