Elliotte Friedman confirms whether or not Brad Treliving is getting fired

If you have been paying attention to the Toronto Maple Leafs lately, you know that the team is in a bit of disarray, and their results on the ice prove it.

They are on a three-game losing streak, and they are now dead last in the Eastern Conference. It's not where you want to be with the Christmas break on the horizon, and some drastic decisions are already being made.

On Monday evening, the Leafs announced the firing of assistant coach Marc Savard, who was responsible for the team's power play, which is in last place in the NHL.

Now, many are left wondering what is going to happen to head coach Craig Berube and general manager Brad Treliving, who haven't done an amazing job this season.

According to a new report from Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman, you should not be expecting any decisions any time soon. Instead, both men are here to stay.

This may come as a surprise, but it is easy to see why the Leafs organization would decide to make a decision like this. Firstly, Brad Treliving doesn't want to fire Berube when he has already shown that he can have success with this team.

Meanwhile, the Leafs' top brass won't fire Treliving in the middle of a season, as that would cause too much instability, when the Leafs need that now more than ever.

Tonight, the Leafs play the Pittsburgh Penguins, and this will serve as an opportunity for the team to get something going and go into Christmas with momentum.

For fans, there has not been a lot to cheer about, but that could change in due time.
