What Sheldon Keefe lacks in experience, he more than makes up for in results.
The 37-year-old head coach of the AHL’s Toronto Marlies has produced quite an impressive track record in a very short amount of time. After a highly successful tenure with the OHL’s Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds, Keefe took over the Marlies and, in his very first season with the team, led them to an AHL-best regular season record. No other team was close.
He’s also coached a lot of young players along the way that are now enjoying success in the NHL, many of whom speak highly of their former coach.
