Leafs to begin Burke talks
There will be no special meetings of the Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment board, but Richard Peddie will seek - and certainly get - permission early this week to open negotiations with Brian Burke for the job of running the Toronto Maple Leafs. Peddie, the MLSE president, will canvas the board of directors by telephone or e-mail as soon as Monday for the necessary clearance. Burke is officially a free agent, as the proper paperwork after his resignation as the general manager of the Anaheim Ducks was filed with the NHL.

That came as a real shocker. Why doesn't Anahiem and Toronto just trade GM's.
