After two key executives have left in recent days and another was promoted to the role of General Manager, the Toronto Maple Leafs had a void to fill in their front office. They’ve continued to move people up the ladder today to try and fill it, as Brandon Pridham has been promoted to Assistant GM. Pridham had previously been titled Assistant to the General Manager, specializing in cap-related decisions over the last few seasons. New Maple Leafs’ GM Kyle Dubas had this to say about his new AGM:
Brandon’s promotion to Assistant General Manager is most deserving. Working closely with him for the last four seasons has allowed me to see the value that he brings to our program across many domains. Brandon is a vital part of our organization today and moving forward. He has earned this title with his selfless contributions to the Maple Leafs during his time here.
So he was promoted from “assistant to the GM” to “assistant GM”.
Originally he was assistant to the regional manager but he was removed from that position because he kept saying he was the assistant regional manager.
A little fishy that Hunter and Lou were pushed out.
