Brendan Shanahan, who signed a six-year extension to remain as president of the Maple Leafs, says signing Mitch Marner to an extension is the priority for a team that believes its window to winning is wide open. The Toronto Maple Leafs have extended the contract of team president Brendan Shanahan. I think it the window is small if you make bad decisions,” said Shanahan. After the 2014-15 season, Shanahan fired GM Dave Nonis as well as dozens of front-office and scouting personnel in a bid to change how the Leafs operated. “We look forward to continued success for the Maple Leafs under Brendan’s leadership over the next six years.” Shanahan grew up in Toronto, but never played for the Leafs.
