The Toronto Maple Leafs fired Marc Savard but it probably isn't enough to save their season and get into playoff contention.

It seemed like only a matter of time before the Toronto Maple Leafs made a coaching change. They have lost three straight and it hasn't even been relatively close as they have been out-scored 14-4 during this stretch.

The Maple Leafs now have only 35 points and are currently second-to-last in the Eastern Conference and only one point ahead of the Columbus Blue Jackets.
