Don't think there is anything more to this than the fact Berube wants him and he will have the exact same role in Toronto, higher profile because, Toronto. If Berube didn't come calling he'd still be here.

I didn't think he did anything all that special with the PP this year, and when they did produce, it was mostly just Kuzmenko being creative. There was no clear strategy early in the year when the team did have some legitimate offensive weapons. Lindholm was tragically underutilized.

I've got no problems with seeing him go. Thought he was trash all year.

Sayonara, sucker. The power play was depressingly bad under his tutelage.

I think he will do wonders in Toronto, Savard is a very smart coach according to everybody around him. It didn't work out here, I wish him all the best.

Well looks like Ruslan Zainullin's time to step in has finally come.

Greg Gilbert coached as recently in 2021 in the OHL! Call him up!

It’s probably the main reason we didn’t make the playoffs.

That can't be it, multiple posters have assured me the roster is bottom five in the league.

If Conroy completely forgets to do his job over the summer, and the team comes back with exactly the same roster they had after the trade deadline, they probably will be bottom five.

Chances of that? Slim sent a picture postcard from Tahiti.

Sucks to see him go. I had high hopes for him. Best of luck wherever you go next.

Guess we’ll find out if the pp issues were personnel or coaching related.

Good.

Our powerplay was horrible, he coached it and obviously couldn't adapt.

Bye Felicia.

I don't think the Flames wanted him back either
this was actually mutual for maybe the first time in history

People are probably being too harsh.
It could have been more a personel issue than coaching, the success with Kuzmenko actually validates that.

We'll see how it plays out, but our PP will probably still suck aside from Kuzmenko and Toronto's will probably be great with Savard.

Everything points to Cail MacLean getting a promotion.
