On May 20, 2015, the Leafs announced the hiring of the highly sought-after Mike Babcock, a Stanley Cup champion and 2-time Olympic Gold medalist with Team Canada, as the team's new head coach. Babcock agreed to a reported 8-year, $50 million contract, becoming the highest paid coach in the history of the NHL. On the ice, the Leafs, led by Shanahan (along with acting GM's Kyle Dubas and Mark Hunter) drafted Toronto-area native Mitch Marner 4th overall in the 2015 draft and traded forward Phil Kessel, the Leafs' scoring leader for each of his 6 seasons on the team, to the Pittsburgh Penguins for a package which included a first-round pick and prospect Kasperi Kapanen. On July 24, 2015, the Leafs hired longtime New Jersey Devils GM Lou Lamoriello to serve in the same capacity with the Leafs.
