“We are truly thankful to Steve Staios for the valuable role he has played within the Leafs organization,” said Toronto Maple Leafs Assistant General Manager Kyle Dubas. “We are also excited for Steve as the Bulldogs set roots in his native Hamilton – he will serve that club and community incredibly well.
“We are equally excited to see the progression of Scott Pellerin into his new role in player development. He has been a great addition since coming on board and his influence will only become greater with our young players.”
A veteran of 536 NHL games, Pellerin first joined the Leafs organization in November 2014 as Assistant Manager of Player Development along with current Skill Development Consultant Darryl Belfry.
