Maple Leafs Rookie Ice Time Raises New Questions About Jim Hiller

Despite the Toronto Maple Leafs’ 4-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday, there is still one major question circling around Maple Leafs head coach Jim Hiller. Gavin McKenna’s ice time was cut during the third period of their victory, and he played a total of 13:01. McKenna played a strong game on Saturday as he recorded three shots on goal, while the Maple Leafs controlled 78.7% of the expected goals when McKenna was on the ice five-on-five, according to Natural Stat Trick. Jim Hiller explained the situation postgame and why this is a recurring issue with the 18-year-old.
