Dreger: Chiarelli not likely interested in Leafs' GM job
/Darren Dreger was on Toronto’s TSN 1050 on Tuesday morning.
On if Peter Chiarelli would have interest in the vacant Toronto Maple Leafs GM position (after establishing that the Leafs should have interest in Chiarelli):
“I don’t speak for Pete Chiarelli. Do I think Pete Chiarelli would have interest in the job as defined with the Toronto Maple Leafs? No, I don’t. I don’t. I think that this is a guy that’s used to doing things his way. Not to say that he runs such a ship where it’s his voice and no one else’s matters. That’s not it at all. But I don’t think that Peter Chiarelli has a ton of interest in the dynamic and the structure of how things are in Toronto.
“But maybe that changes. He’s got three years left on his deal as well. So Peter Chiarelli might take some time to breathe, spend some time with his family, just let the dust settle and see what comes his way in the future.”
