Does this mean Treliving is making coaching decisions? If so he needs to be fired immediately

Perhaps the money is talking this season.
Berube loves throwing people under the bus. His players, his bosses… How he’s still around is mind boggling.
Clean house immediately. Get rid of them both.
As always, all signs point towards a troubled organization. Same problem under Shanahan. If you don’t have structure and accountability within management, why would you expect it with the players?
Organization is just an absolute clown show, there isn’t a single person in it that I trust to get the next steps right.
The basement is calling for a nice long time again
Wat?
Why would Berube be the one to decide if he should play a game during the conditioning stint?
It literally isn’t his call though.
Roster management is literally the GMs job, the coach then decides what to do with the players he’s given.
Sending players up and down, and conditioning stints are the definition of “not the coaches job”.
He means its not up to him whether Stolarz is down in the A getting starts or not. That is just facts. Thats a GM decision.
Not giving an answer as to why *he* chose to start Stolarz in the NHL specifically last night when that was the spirit of the question though, is frustrating.
What? That’s bizarre. Was he asked for clarification at all?
Edit: sorry scanned the tweet and misread, thought they were talking about the decision to start him in last nights game.
He doesn’t coach the minor team? Besides Treliving the the training/medical staff and marlies coach could have a say? It totally makes sense berube wouldn’t be involved it’s only his concern when stolarz is activated on his roster and ready to play
Since when does the NHL coach decide about injury rehab starts for the AHL team?
Doesn’t the GM choose the team, and the coach decides how to play them? What’s the issue?
Gms job to call up or send down guys, coach, coaches the players on the roster. Nothing to see here
That’s his decision. We should remember that the Leafs own the AHL team. Whatever the AHL team does, it should benefit the Leafs first. I recall the AHL team used the exact Leafs’ defence scheme a few years ago, so the D could step in immediately when called up.
Uhhh no it means that Bérubé isn’t the coach of the Marlies…
They want to get Stolarz playing, and playing well, to showcase him for a deadline deal.
Tell me you completely misunderstood what was said without telling me you completely misunderstood what was said.
Biggest game of the year and he chose to play a goalie who hadn’t seen NHL action in months.
It means you need to work on reading comprehension.
Everyone’s right that this is a GM decision. Unless Treliving told Bérubé to start him that’s what that meant. I doubt it, though.
Still, Bérubé didn’t have to start him last night and there could’ve and should’ve been some discussion between the two about the plan to get Stolarz back into NHL games.
This response seems to indicate that there isn’t a lot of communication between GM and coach. Maybe that’s reading too much into it. But that’s still a pretty abrupt statement from Berube here. Something more like “We see that he’s ready to go and I decided he should get the start last night.” Instead, he gives this pass-the-buck comment.
They need to both be fired. Some of trelivings moves turned out ok, but just the current overall approach and system is not working
This entire organization is a mess. Clean house.
GM, trainer, team doc, physio, all those people would likely have a say.
I agree get rid of Tre, and Berube too, but player movement between the minors and the nhl is handled by the GM. And for a conditioning stint it would be the medical staffs call as well, so even more not Berube’s decision.
