Summary
Jim Hiller, 57, takes the reins as head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs just three months after being fired by the Los Angeles Kings — a move that signals a major reset for the franchise. Named by new GM John Chayka for his player rapport and clear coaching philosophy, Hiller brings deep ties to the Leafs organization, having previously served as an assistant coach there. With the team coming off a disastrous season and a blockbuster trade already reshaping the roster, Hiller inherits a rebuilding project with the first overall draft pick — giving him a rare chance to build a new identity for one of hockey’s most scrutinized franchises.
