VIDEO: After a few notable names were floated to potentially be the Toronto Maple Leafs’ next head coach, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment went with someone who used to be behind their bench. Today, the hockey club announced that they’ve hired Jim Hiller as the franchise’s 41st head coach, after he spent three seasons with the Los Angeles Kings. The Kings fired Hiller on March 1 following an 8-1 loss to Edmonton, 10 days after John Chayka was hired in Toronto.
