MLSE announces Tom Anselmi has been appointed president and COO, filling Richard Peddie's shoes. So they stayed with the internal candidate.

Larry Tanenbaum, Chairman of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) announced Tuesday that Tom Anselmi has been appointed President and Chief Operating Officer of MLSE, effective immediately.

"Tom’s proven strength in operations has made him a respected leader here at MLSE and across the sports and entertainment industry," said Tanenbaum.

"His passion for our teams and our fans makes Tom the perfect choice as President and COO of this great organization."

In his new role, Anselmi oversees all MLSE operations, and reports in the interim to the MLSE Board through the Chair.

"I'm honoured to be appointed President and COO of one of the premier sports and entertainment organizations in the world," said Anselmi. "The opportunities for MLSE are limitless, and it all starts with a focus on building winning teams, strengthening our relationship with fans, and enhancing our positive impact in the community."

He was the choice I expected all along.

Well, at least this will probably give us our wish of Anselmi no longer being involved in overseeing TFC directly.
