08:27 AM ET 07.02 | On the upside for Leafs fans, management didn't open the free agent signing period by overpaying dearly for a player. No, Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brian Burke was pretty quiet on the opening day of free agency on Sunday -- making only one small addition in checking centre Jay McClement -- and given the market, he was fine with that. ... [Even] with plenty of players unsigned and available in free agency, Burke said he expects he'll continue to find improvements via trade. "We're not done," Burke said, before outlining his team's needs. "We need to get bigger. We're still looking to solve or upgrade the goaltending situation. We're still looking to add a centre or upgrade at centre if we can. ... This is a starting point."

Sign Semin or Jagr. Put Komisarek in the minors. Trade everything of value for Getzlaf.

Burkie doesn't like those front loaded contracts. He'd rather waste money buying out the can't miss players he signed previously. Cough, cough....Colby Armstrong.
Canuck eh?
