Brendan Shanahan will not be returning as president of the Maple Leafs, ending the Hall of Fame player-turned-executive’s tenure after 11 years, nine playoff appearances, and no trips beyond the second round of the playoffs.

The Maple Leafs have officially parted ways with team president Brendan Shanahan, further opening the door for the respected hockey executive to potentially land a similar role on Long Island in the Islanders’ front office.

The Leafs are in no hurry to replace Shanahan at the top of their front office, sources said, and will not change Treliving's GM role.
