There is another opening behind the bench after Sheldon Keefe was let go Thursday. Here are the top names available, and risers for the future.

Going back to Sept. 2023, there were 13 coaching changes made in the NHL. Stretch it back to Jan. 2023, and 19 of the league's 32 teams have changed coaches.handled a sexual assault allegation in 2010 against video coach Brad Aldrich that implicated Quenneville and other then-Blackhawks leaders for their inaction in the case. One NHL source tells me they wouldn't be surprised to see him return next season if a team petitioned the NHL to allow it.

The team is optimistic it'll get done."I feel really good that we'll figure it out quickly. Yeah, I'm not concerned," Brind'Amour said last week, before his team faced theKeefe joined the list on Thursday morning, as the Maple Leafs"relieved him of his coaching duties" after five seasons. Toronto lost in Game 7 against Boston in the first round. They made the playoffs in every season of Keefe's tenure but have won only one playoff round.

Woodcroft might be the most interesting candidate here. He's 47 years old and won two playoff rounds in his first two seasons with the Oilers. But with expectations sky high this season, he was fired after just 13 games, a decision the players lamented even if it ultimately fell on their play for having happened. His speed-oriented offensive system and experience coaching elite talent would seem like a fit for a team like New Jersey.

Shaw has worked with John Tortorella in Columbus and Philadelphia. He actually coached the Flyers for two games this season after Tortorella was suspended for refusing to leave the bench, which is a thing that actually happened this season. Shaw was an interim coach for the New York Islanders for 40 games in 2005-06.at 33 to replace Joel Quenneville, arriving at a time when the team was falling apart on and off the ice.

Sturm's name is coming up a lot in conversations about the coaching pool. He played 938 games as a forward in the NHL. He was an assistant coach for the Kings before becoming a head coach for their AHL affiliate in Ontario. Sturm could be a candidate to become head coach for Los Angeles or San Jose, where he spent eight years of his career.

Taylor, 53, has put in his time in the minor leagues, including five seasons as a successful head coach with the Milwaukee Admirals.These familiar names all have NHL head-coaching experience and are current assistant or associate coaches. Perhaps the most interesting name here is Boucher, who was previously head coach for the Lightning and Senators .

Carle led the U.S. to world junior gold in 2024 and has been named the team's coach for the 2025 tournament. He has led Denver to NCAA national championships in 2022 and 2024. The 34-year-old Alaska native has everything an NHL team would want in a young head coach ... except it's basically gospel around hockey circles that he's not leaving Denver, at least yet.
