[Masters] Sheldon Keefe on Jake Muzzin: “He knows how we play. He knows what the expectations are. He has great bonds with our players. He is an integral piece of our leadership group & that won’t change. We will get everything we can out of him that way.”

Keefe to me seems like the perfect combination of old school and new school coach.
Is the context of this quote that Muzz is taking on a coach-like role with the team?
I don’t want Muzzin to ever play again, but also, I really want him to play again.
Muzzin will be the Leafs’ Roy Kent and I’m all for it.
How exactly do player coaches work? Seems to me like an assistant coach level role with a more immediate relation to the players as they were on the roster so recently.
This is so awesome to read. I love Muzzin and time to time will wear my Muzzin jersey. I’m glad he’s able to have somewhat of a normal hockey life and be around the team. I’m sure he loves being involved and the guys probably love having him around.
Muzzin about to become the highest paid coach in the league.
I’d love to see Muzzin secure a long term spot in management. He’s a trooper and was a pleasure to have on the team
Muzzin giving some Jason Street vibes
