""Sunny Mehta taking the Jersey job removes a serious candidate from Toronto's list. Most of the interviews this week were done by Zoom," Friedman wrote earlier this week."
""Among those I believe have spoken to the Maple Leafs, in alphabetical order: Ryan Bowness (Islanders), John Chayka, Mike Gillis, Ryan Hardy, Ryan Martin (Rangers), Brandon Pridham, Chris Pronger.""
""That's seven, including the current co-GMs, and I suspect the number is around 10. So this is not a complete picture.""
""Others I've wondered about: Gregory Campbell (Panthers), Evan Gold (Bruins), Brad Pascall (Flames). A lot of rumours about Ross Mahoney (Capitals) and would like to see him get his shot, but no evidence he's involved.""
The Toronto Maple Leafs are preparing for a busy summer following their absence from the NHL playoffs. A clearer list of potential general manager candidates has emerged, especially after Sunny Mehta was hired by the New Jersey Devils. Elliotte Friedman provided insights into the candidates, including Ryan Bowness, John Chayka, and Mike Gillis, among others. The team has conducted interviews, primarily via Zoom, and the total number of candidates is estimated to be around ten, indicating a thorough search process.
