Now a few months later, the former Stanley Cup champion and Hockey Hall of Fame inductee has found a new NHL gig.<\/p>\n<p>According to TSN&#8217;s Darren Dreger, Shanahan has taken a position with the league&#8217;s Hockey Operations Department. The details are currently unknown, but more information will be released shortly when Dreger makes his appearance on TSN&#8217;s Insider Trading.<\/p>\n<p>The prominent NHL insider also mentions that Shanahan will still be courted by several teams should they make a change mid-season. The former Leafs executive is still very highly regarded and should be on several teams&#8217; shortlists moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>If an opportunity presents, whereby a team decides it&#8217;s going to make a significant change at the top of it&#8217;s hockey department, I would suggest Brendan Shanahan will be a leading candidate for a job like that as well.<\/p>\n<p>Shanahan joined the Maple Leafs in April of 2014 when they officially named him as the team&#8217;s president and alternate governor, who would oversee all operations for the club.<\/p>\n<p>Shanahan was the driving force behind the &#8216;Core-4&#8217; staying together in Toronto for as long as they did. However, after 9 straight post-season berths that ended in heartbreak, usually in the first round, the organization decided it was time for a change<\/p>\n<p>It shouldn&#8217;t be too long until another team makes an in-season change and focuses their attention on Shanahan. Until then, he will look to do good with the league in his new gig.<\/p>\n<p>Previously on Maple Leafs Daily<\/p>\n<p>POLL<\/p>\n<p>7 HOURS AGO\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0|\u00a0\u00a0\u00a063 ANSWERS<\/p>\n<p>Former Maple Leafs President Brendan Shanahan Lands New NHL Job<\/p>\n<p>Will Brendan Shanahan join an NHL team this year?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tMAPLELEAFSDAILY.COM<br \/>COPYRIGHT @2025 &#8211; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mapleleafsdaily.com\/terms\" class=\"lediv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TERMS<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mapleleafsdaily.com\/politic\" class=\"lediv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">POLICIES<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Former Maple Leafs President Brendan Shanahan Lands New NHL Job Photo credit: Dan Hamilton&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":263374,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5106],"tags":[2906,5,2042,456,20,5172,4,66,31,5171],"class_list":{"0":"post-263373","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-toronto-maple-leafs","8":"tag-brendan-shanahan","9":"tag-hockey","10":"tag-hockey-operations","11":"tag-leafs-news-and-rumours","12":"tag-maple-leafs","13":"tag-mapleleafs","14":"tag-nhl","15":"tag-toronto","16":"tag-toronto-maple-leafs","17":"tag-torontomapleleafs"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/115427644819848156","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263373","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=263373"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263373\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/263374"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=263373"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=263373"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=263373"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
