It might be wishful thinking, but Woodcroft was an assistant coach with SJS for seven seasons, which just so happens to coincide with Pavelski's tenure with the Sharks.

That's 515 games together, so you would have to assume the two have a good working relationship...

OFFICIAL: The Toronto Marlies will tangle with the Chicago Wolves in the Calder Cup Final

That's right..Carolina's AHL team is also off to the Final

[Leafs Updates @LeafsUpdates21]

If a move for a 2C makes sense do it but it's not a must-fix this offseason for me. JT has proven to produce just fine for that role and the trio of him, Cowan and Willy looked good down the stretch.

Prioritize a strong 2-way 3rd line with a C that can slide up (Hayton).

[Leafs Updates @LeafsUpdates21]

I’m quite surprised he’s still in the running but we don’t know everything I guess

[Leafs Updates @LeafsUpdates21]

Roy is too similar to Berube, no?

[Willyston Riellander @nylanderthews]

LeBrun on OverDrive says that Joe Pavelski is one of the five candidates remaining for the Leafs' head coaching position.

Patrick Roy is still in this process, and LeBrun thinks Jay Woodcroft is as well, although he doesn't have that confirmed 100%.

[Willyston Riellander @nylanderthews]

Kypreos on Real Kyper & Bourne says he was told on Friday that Laviolette was going to be the next coach of the Leafs. Laviolette was even spotted in town. LA did some fast talking on the weekend to pry him away from the Leafs.

[Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC]

Peter Laviolette will be the next head coach of the Los Angeles Kings

Edmonton and Toronto were also interested

[Willyston Riellander @nylanderthews]

Elliotte Friedman on The FAN Hockey Show says based on what he's been told, he's sure Pavelski is going to be one of the finalists for Leafs head coach

Friedman adds he hasn't gotten a yes or no on John Gruden yet, and was also wondering if Mark Giordano was in on this too

[Leafs Updates @LeafsUpdates21]

Minnesota is my guess (also what I hope happens). Need a C the most and therefore probably most aggressive.

[NHL News @PuckReportNHL]

🚨 Dylan Larkin reportedly submits 3 team list of place he wants to go in trade from Red Wings:
• Florida Panthers
• Minnesota Wild
• Vegas Golden Knights

Overtime in Pennsylvania, 1-1.

[Kevin Papetti @KPapetti]

Easton Cowan goes to the net and puts in a rebound to tie the game

[Leafs Truth @leafs_truth]

There is an alternate timeline where Marner is about to win the Conn Smythe after beating Matthew Knies on the Habs, and Boston is getting ready to pick a franchise defenseman with the 6th pick overall.

Things could have been way way worse for Leafs fans....

[Nick Alberga @thegoldenmuzzy]

Part of me wants Vegas to win the Cup solely to hear Mitch Marner finally elaborate on his "dark times" comment.

@Jackie_Redmond isn't having it. She's tired of the Leafs fan bashing and the constant gaslighting of Toronto.

Why does everything in hockey always come back to the Leafs? 🤷‍♂️🍿
