Lou Lamoriello resigned as president of the New Jersey Devils on Thursday in order to become the general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Lamoriello is the 16th general manager in Maple Leafs history. Maple Leafs president Brendan Shanahan was drafted by the Devils in 1987, the year Lamoriello took over as their president and general manager.
Lamoriello spent 28 years with the Devils, winning the Stanley Cup three times, going to the Stanley Cup Final five times, and winning nine division titles. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2009.
