Toronto Maple Leafs president Brendan Shanahan publicly admitted last Friday there was urgency for his team to find its next GM after walking away from Kyle Dubas last week. Not surprisingly, a week later, it appears the Leafs are hard at work assessing potential candidates for the job.

According to Daily Faceoff insider Frank Seravalli, the Leafs’ list of GM interviewees is expected to, at minimum, include Jason Botterill, Marc Bergevin, Brad Treliving and Peter Chiarelli.

The list of names reflects Shanahan’s assertion last week that experience would be an attractive trait in Toronto’s next GM hire.
