TORONTO ? Ron Wilson must have been good this year.
Two days after hinting at his desire for a new contract on Twitter, the Toronto Maple Leafs coach tweeted the team has given him an extension.
"'He came! He came!' Remember saying that as a little kid? Well he did: I got a new Red Ryder BB gun and a contract extension!" Wilson tweeted Sunday morning.
Wilson tweeted Friday that his Christmas wish was for a new contract from Leafs general manager Brian Burke.
"This Xmas could be better if Santa stuffs a certain piece of paper in my stocking. #whatcouldthatbe," Wilson posted on his official Twitter account.
The 56-year-old is in the final season of a four-year contract and currently has the Leafs sixth in the Eastern Conference with 40 points.
Toronto has not made the playoffs in three prior seasons under Wilson, who is 119-120-42 overall with the Leafs.
The team did not immediately respond to an email seeking confirmation of the new deal.
Wilson, a defenceman in his playing days who was selected by the Leafs in the 1975 draft, has a 637-546-101-88 coaching record with Anaheim, Washington, San Jose and Toronto. He is 47-48 in the playoffs.
