B.C.’s Jim Hiller lands Toronto Maple Leafs head coaching job

Nearly 10 per cent of all NHL head coaches now hail from Vancouver Island.
That number jumped on Wednesday (June 17) when the Toronto Maple Leafs tapped Port Alberni’s Jim Hiller to take over their bench. Hiller was named the 41st head coach in the franchise’s history.
He joins Victoria’s Spencer Carbery of the Washington Capitals and Campbell River’s Rod Brind’Amour of the Carolina Hurricanes on the list of NHL bench bosses from the Island.
