The Toronto Maple Leafs have hired Jeremiah Crowe as the director of player personnel. Here's what the organization is getting out of this front-office addition.

The Toronto Maple Leafs' front office continues to reshape itself with another hire to GM John Chayka's staff.

The Leafs hired Jeremiah Crowe as the director of player personnel, the team announced on Wednesday.

Crowe has a strong background in scouting, working in that realm for more than the last 10 years. In the past nine years, he was a part of the Buffalo Sabres' organization, operating at different levels and hierarchies in scouting.

In the past four years, Crowe was the director of professional scouting. Before that, in 2020-21 and 2021-22, he served as the director of scouting. Prior to that, the German-born staff member worked as a pro scout, holding that role for three years and beginning in 2017-18. His pro scouting role was his first in the NHL.

Crowe was a director of player personnel before, meaning he has some experience in the position he has just been hired for in Toronto.

In 2016-17, he served as the director of personnel for the USA Hockey National Team Development Program at the junior level in the USHL. 

Between that position in 2016-17 and as the assistant director of player personnel in 2015-16, Crowe worked alongside players such as Brady Tkachuk, Quinn Hughes, Clayton Keller, Adam Fox, Jake Oettinger, and former Maple Leafs goaltender Joseph Woll.

This hire comes after the Leafs made an overhaul to their front office, letting go of several different staff members of multiple expertises, including assistant GMs Dr. Hayley Wickenheiser and Darryl Metcalf.

The club also cleared out many members of the scouting team, including Dave Morrison and Jason Taylor, who served as a senior advisor of player personnel and a pro scout, respectively. Those are a pair of specialties in which Crowe thrives.
