On March 2, the Leafs fired Ron Wilson and shortly thereafter named another former Anaheim Ducks Coach Randy Carlyle as the new bench boss. Carlyle, a former Norris trophy winner, is the fourth Leafs Head Coach since the 2004 lockout. That's a lot of turnover, even by NHL coaching standards.

Whether Carlyle is an improvement over Wilson remains to be seen. He had quite a bit of success in Anaheim working with Brian Burke and winning a Stanley Cup in 2006, which is something that Wilson has never done as a coach. But Toronto isn't Anaheim and the pressures are completely different. That might explain one of the reasons why the Leafs have gone through so many coaches in recent seasons. In fact, the Leafs have gone through many great and notso- great head coaches throughout their history. Here's a look at a few:

Hap Day: Clarence "Happy" Day played for the Leafs and their predecessors, the Toronto St. Patricks, from 1924 to 1937. He went on to coach Toronto from 1940 to 1950, a run that included five Stanley Cups, maybe the best period of the Leafs' history.

George "Punch" Imlach: Imlach holds the Leafs' coaching record for all-time wins at 360. He coached Toronto from '58 to '69. He won four Stanley Cups with the Leafs, including their last in 1967. He returned to Toronto to coach very briefly in 1980, losing in the first round of the playoffs.

Roger Neilson: Neilson coached the Leafs from 1977 through 1979, the first of eight NHL teams he would coach. Under Neilson, the Leafs had probably their best run in the '70s, making it to the third round of the playoffs in 1978. Neilson died of cancer in 2003.

Pat Burns: Burns coached the Leafs for three and a half seasons from 1992 to 1996. Under Burns, the Buds made the Conference finals twice, losing to Los Angeles in 1993 and Vancouver in 1994. These two years may have represented the Leafs' best chance to win a Cup since their last one in '67. He was also the Leafs' first winning coach since Roger Neilson left the team in 1979. Burns did win a Cup, coaching New Jersey in 2003. He died of cancer in 2010.

Pat Quinn: Quinn coached another somewhat successful era of the Leafs, starting with Toronto in 1998 and coaching the team through the 2005/06 season. The Leafs made it to the Conference finals twice under Quinn, in 1999 and 2002. They also posted their franchise best record of 103 points in 2004. However, much like the Leafs under Burns, Quinn wasn't able to get his team in the Cup finals and was fired in favour of Paul Maurice beginning in the 2006/07 season.
