Leafs assistant Spencer Carbery looks like the NHL's hottest coaching candidate

If you're Toronto Maple Leafs assistant coach Spencer Carbery, you have to feel good about your chances of becoming an NHL head coach for the 2023-24 season.

The 41-year-old has seen his name pop up in all kinds of rumours since the Maple Leafs were eliminated by the Florida Panthers in the second round of the playoffs.

Carbery has interviewed with the New York Rangers, reportedly met with the Washington Capitals, and spoken with the Anaheim Ducks. He's also one of the candidates to take over in Toronto if Sheldon Keefe is shown the door.
