‘Good Simply Isn’t Good Enough’: MLSE Boss Speaks Following Exit of Maple Leafs’ President. Here’s What He Said

  • On May 23, 2025, MLSE CEO Keith Pelley announced that Brendan Shanahan's contract as Toronto Maple Leafs president would not be renewed following another playoff loss.
  • The decision came after the Leafs lost a winner-take-all Game 7 to the Florida Panthers with a 6-1 defeat, marking a second consecutive poor home showing.
  • Shanahan, a Hockey Hall of Famer and native of Toronto, led the Leafs for 11 seasons, rebuilding the roster around stars like Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner but achieved only two playoff series wins.
  • Pelley emphasized that making playoffs is not enough, stating, "Good simply isn't good enough" and affirming the Leafs must be on a path to winning the Stanley Cup for their frustrated fan base.
  • Pelley said Shanahan will not be replaced immediately, expressing full confidence in GM Brad Treliving and coach Craig Berube while planning a methodical approach to reach championship goals.
