Episode Details

The Toronto Maple Leafs are delaying their general manager search to prioritize hiring a president of hockey operations first. This top-down approach could significantly reshape their front office. Theyve enlisted Neil Glasberg and PBI Sports, a firm specializing in high-level hires, to lead the search. Fans and pundits are buzzing about internal candidate Shane Doan, currently a special advisor, as a strong contender for the GM role due to his executive experience on the international stage. The Leafs are open to a first-time GM, as long as theyre paired with a veteran president. Doan fits this bill, having run Team Canada at the 2022 Beijing Olympics and assisted on their gold-medal win at the 2021 World Championships. More candidate names are expected as the offseason progresses.
