Steve Simmons (TSN 1050/Toronto Sun) mentioned that the Maple Leafs are looking to add Kelly McCrimmon to Brendan Shanahan's front office.
McCrimmon is the owner/GM/head coach of the Brandon Wheat Kings.
He has been named the top executive in the WHL on three occasions and is the only person in the history of the league to win it three times. Simmons said that some people believe McCrimmon is the best evaluator of talent in Western Canada. The Wheat Kings went 53-11-4-4 and finished as the #2 rated team in the Canadian Hockey League (CHL).
The Maple Leafs currently have no GM and there are rumblings that they may name Mark Hunter (Director, Player Personnel) as the GM.
