Leafs Bet Big Now: Bold Overhaul Ahead After Berube Firing

With an aging core, limited draft assets, and a weak free-agent class, he must land a No.1 defenseman, a top-six forward, and a solid center while rebuilding depth—likely bringing in an experienced coach such as Bruce Cassidy or Jay Woodcroft—yet this overhaul will be far from easy without high picks or a deep prospect pool.
