Just minutes prior to the Maple Leafs' matchup against the Winnipeg Jets, it was revealed that Chris Tanev would be out of the lineup with a lower-body injury.
The Maple Leafs ended up losing the game and there is no doubt that they could have used their defenseman.
Having said that, the concern immediately became about how much longer Tanev would have to be out of the lineup.
Craig Berube noted that Tanev was injured on Saturday against the New York Islanders, however, there was not much else to say about it.
It was yet another example of the Toronto Maple Leafs not giving much of an update on their players.
This has happened with Auston Matthews and Anthony Stolarz, who were both listed as day-to-day before being hit with much worse prognoses.
On social media, a lot of fans were completely alienated by the comments made by Berube.
As you can see down below, the fans have lost faith and do not believe a word that is being uttered by the organization.
This complete and utter lack of trust should be a huge wake up call for the organization.
It is unacceptable, and it goes to show that this team has made a ton of missteps so far this season.
