Maple Leafs Turn To Jim Hiller As Berube Era Ends

Toronto has made a coaching change ahead of the draft, and that means the clock is now loud in the building. Jim Hiller steps into one of the most pressure-cooked jobs in the league, where every lineup tweak gets treated like a referendum on the whole operation. Moving on from Craig Berube signals that the Leafs want a different answer, and they want it now, not after another summer of reassuring quotes. In Toronto, the new coach never just gets a bench - he gets a verdict waiting to happen.
