Brendan Shanahan might have never wore the Maple Leafs jersey as a player, but he's now a big part of the organization renaissance. After a successful NHL career topped by Stanley Cups and individual awards, he's now running the upper floor of the Leafs in a very interesting era. 

He says himself you don't need to come from Toronto to lead the Leafs. However, to him the opportunity is extra special as he grew up idolizing the team. 

Here a short documentary on his passion for the team and how he was forged to become the president he is now. 


What a nice insight in this man's thoughts! Shanahan was the right guy for the job and his passion for the Leafs will help propel the franchise to the highest level.
