Multiple reports are coming in today that Maple Leafs assistant coach Dave Hakstol will be the name on Seattle GM Ron Francis’s lips today at 1 p.m. eastern time, when the Kraken are set to name their first head coach.
One name that has surfaced as a possibility for the head coach job with expansion Seattle is that of Dave Hakstol, the former Flyers HC who was assistant coach with the Maple Leafs this past season....@TSNHockey @TheAthletic
