"I look at how a group of really skilled players has gotten better at checking, defending, and doing those things you need to win," Treliving shared his insights about Keefe's group.

Keefe's Future Remains Uncertain
Since then, however, Treliving has not made any further comments on whether he plans to re-sign Keefe or find a replacement. This has stirred some resentment considering the commendable job Keefe has done since his appointment as the head coach.
Many analysts and insiders are of the opinion that Keefe will, and should, return. However it appears as though Treliving might be exploring other options before deciding Keefe's future with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
