Assistant Coach Marc Savard

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced today the addition of Marc Savard as an assistant coach, completing head coach Craig Berube’s staff for the upcoming season. Savard joins a robust coaching lineup that includes associate coach Lane Lambert, assistant coach Mike Van Ryn, goaltending coach Curtis Sanford, and video coaches Jordan Bean and Sam Kim.

Savard brings a wealth of experience and a strong coaching pedigree to the Maple Leafs. He joins the team after serving as an assistant coach with the Calgary Flames last season. Prior to his stint in Calgary, Savard spent two successful seasons as head coach of the Ontario Hockey League’s Windsor Spitfires. During his tenure with the Spitfires, he led the team to an impressive 88-35-8-5 record and guided them to the OHL Finals in 2022.

Savard began his coaching career with the St. Louis Blues in the 2019-20 season before moving to Windsor. His transition from player to coach has been marked by his ability to develop young talent and implement effective strategies, making him a valuable addition to the Maple Leafs’ coaching staff.

As a player, Savard had a distinguished NHL career, playing in 807 regular season games and 25 playoff contests. He suited up for the New York Rangers, Calgary Flames, Atlanta Thrashers, and Boston Bruins, amassing 706 points (207 goals, 499 assists). Savard’s on-ice vision and playmaking abilities earned him two NHL All-Star Game appearances in 2008 and 2009. He also captured a Stanley Cup championship with the Boston Bruins in 2011, cementing his legacy as a talented and accomplished player.

Drafted by the New York Rangers in the fourth round (91st overall) of the 1995 NHL Draft, Savard’s journey through professional hockey has been one of resilience and excellence. His deep understanding of the game and ability to connect with players will undoubtedly benefit the Maple Leafs as they prepare for the upcoming season.

The Maple Leafs’ organization and fans alike have high hopes for the impact Savard will have on the team. His experience and fresh perspective are expected to help elevate the team’s performance, particularly in developing their offensive strategies and power play effectiveness.

With the coaching staff now complete, the Toronto Maple Leafs are poised to tackle the new season with renewed vigor and a comprehensive support system designed to maximize the team’s potential. The addition of Marc Savard signifies the organization’s commitment to excellence and their ambition to make a deep playoff run.

Fans and analysts will be eagerly watching to see how Savard’s influence shapes the team’s dynamics and contributes to their quest for success in the 2024 season.
