Former Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson tears into 'uncoachable' core
On Tuesday, Dave Nonis appeared to repudiate Randy Carlyle's recent criticism of the Toronto Maple Leafs core at the press conference in which he explained the club's decision to fire Carlyle.
The man Carlyle replaced, though, seems to have his back.
Ron Wilson appeared on TSN Radio 1050 in Toronto on Tuesday afternoon and laid into Phil Kessel and the Maple Leafs core in spectacular fashion:
Ron Wilson: "Some core players have failed under two or three coaches ... You’d have to surmise that some of them are uncoachable now."

Wilson also called out Kessel, who he admitted you can win with, for being emotional and unreliable:
"Phil's problem is he's two weeks on two weeks off ...you can't rely on Phil ... That's the nature of the beast." -Ron Wilson on #Leafslunch

That cloud currently hovering over Toronto looks an awful lot like a mushroom, huh?
