Joe Pavelski isn’t the only interesting name although he sure is interesting for sure (@FriedgeHNIC first to report). Leafs GM John Chayka has spoken to more than 20 coaching candidates. Hearing there’s a few more interesting names in there. The search process is in its second phase now.
An unexpected name surfaces in Toronto’s coaching search — Joe Pavelski. According to multiple sources, the Future Hall-of-Famer is on the Maple Leafs’ radar.
@FriedgeHNIC has more. https://t.co/Ql9NMDbG4C
I think a point most people aren’t realizing is a lot of Toronto fans were upset with Marner because we KNEW he could be this player when it mattered most and he always fell short.
This game has included:
* Two VGK goals taken off the board by coach's challenges
* Mitch Marner natural hat trick, fastest in SCF history
* Stopped Marner penalty shot that would have made it 5-0 in 3rd period
* Three Carolina goals in 39 seconds, fastest in SCF history
