Real Kyper & Bourne

Former NHL president, general manager and head coach Doug MacLean (3:38) joins Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne to chat about the use of analytics and data in building a Stanley Cup winning team, the importance of the people around a new general manager that they would hire, bringing in former players to lead a organization, who Doug thinks could be candidates to be the next Maple Leafs' GM that have been training as an AGM or worked behind the scenes for awhile, why the Vancouver Canucks could be more of an attractive job than Toronto, and why he sees an increased trend of teams changing head coaches to fight for a playoff spot.
