Leafs Hour: Choosing a Coach & Uncomfortable NMCs

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start with the latest on the Leafs' coaching search as Craig Berube and Todd McLellan appear to be run-away favourites for the job. Nevertheless, they discuss long-shot candidates in Joel Quenneville & Rod Brind'Amour and why the timing of the hire is crucial. Then, a chat about John Tavares' awkward contract situation, his captaincy going forward and if his play at the Worlds could help potential trade negotiations. Finally, former NHL scout Jason Bukala (32:05) gives an organizational breakdown for the Leafs including their draft capital, prospect pool and current contract conundrums.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
