The Maple Leafs are actively looking to hire a new general manager. They previously reached out to Julien BriseBois but were rejected.

According to NHL analyst Elliotte Friedman, “I think they’re working on a Mats Sundin-John Chayka combination.” This suggests that both figures could play pivotal roles in the team’s future.

Key statistics from the recent season:

• Matias Maccelli scored 14 goals and 39 points this season.
• The Maple Leafs hold the No. 5 pick in the 2026 NHL Draft.
• Semyon Der-Arguchintsev aims to return to the Maple Leafs after his stint in the KHL.

The organization is at a precarious inflection point and needs competent leadership ready to hit the ground running. The exact role Mats Sundin will take has not been confirmed yet.

Additionally, the outcome of the NHL Draft lottery could change the Maple Leafs’ draft position. This uncertainty adds another layer of complexity as they plan their next moves.
