Joe Pavelski, hockey legend and golf enthusiast, is seriously considering the Toronto Maple Leafs head coach job — joking he might need to trade his clubs for a clipboard. He’s had real talks with the Leafs, loving the intrigue of the process, and still feels connected to the game through coaching his son’s team and staying active in local hockey. He’s also rooting for former Sharks teammate Tomas Hertl, offering a quick pep talk when needed.

The game’s still his life, even if he’s swapping arenas for the links. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
