Video: Maple Leafs Head Coach Calls Out Reporter Mid-Question

Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe was sick and tired of some of the Toronto media jumping on forward Nick Ritchie after the team's latest loss to the San Jose Sharks.

Keefe was asked about the laziness of Ritchie after Friday's game and his reaction is what makes him a great coach. He deflects off of the player and opens the reporters eyes up to the fact it was the entire top-line who struggled.

The team lost to the Sharks and it's almost as if the world is caving in for the Maple Leafs. Here's Keefe giving it right back to the media in this awesome exchange:
