Interesting nugget from Jay McKee on @LMTake_:
McKee confirmed he spoke with the Maple Leafs about their vacant head coaching position before ultimately accepting the head coaching job with the Hamilton Hammers.
He didn't elaborate, though.

John Gruden says he hasn't talked to the Leafs regarding their vacant head coaching position.
That said, when I asked if he feels ready to take the next step and become an NHL head coach, his answer was simple:
"100%."

Last Friday on @VSiNLive's MONEY MOVES, @meJVT revealed he bet the field to go No. 1 overall in the NHL Draft.
Respectfully, that bet is cooked. @StormBuonantony
Nothing's guaranteed, but all signs continue to point toward the Leafs selecting Gavin McKenna first overall.
.@koshtorontosun spoke with Pete DeBoer & Steve Spott about Joe Pavelski—and came away even more intrigued by the possibility of him coaching the #Leafs.
"They both said he approached the game with a coach's mentality. It was like having another coach on the bench."
As soon as reports surfaced that Edmonton was zeroing in on Mike Babcock as its next head coach, I immediately thought of @frankcorrado22.
Corrado played for Babcock in Toronto and didn't exactly have fond memories.
His message to the Oilers?
"Careful what you wish for..."
"He's not ripping out 14 pull-ups at the combine if he wasn't putting in the work all year"
Former Leaf Frankie Corrado explains why Gavin McKenna’s dedication, development, and drive have cemented him as the clear-cut No. 1 prospect in his eyes.
