    Has Fletcher found his man? Wilson on a plane to Toronto.
    Toronto Maple Leafs interim general manager Cliff Fletcher says he's found the man he wants to coach the team and has offered him the job. Fletcher would not name the candidate, but sources tell TSN that former Sharks coach Ron Wilson is on his way to Toronto to meet Leafs officials.

    When reached by phone, Wilson, who was about to board a plane, refused comment.

    Fletcher fired former Leafs' head coach Paul Maurice last month after Toronto missed the playoffs for the second straight season. The Maple Leafs are also still searching for a GM to eventually replace Fletcher and have a committee working to that end.

    The Sharks fired Wilson after the club was eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs by the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Semifinals.

    He holds San Jose club coaching records for wins (206), winning percentage (.535) and postseason games coached (52). The Sharks put together a 206-134-45 record in the regular season and a 28-24 playoff record with Wilson behind the bench.

    During his career Wilson has coached the San Jose Sharks, Washington Capitals and Anaheim Ducks, compiling a record of 518-446-127 over his 1,091 games. He coached the Capitals to the Stanley Cup Final during the 1997-98 season but Washington was swept by the Detroit Red Wings.
