Brian Burke and Bryan Colangelo went move for move this summer in attempting to reshape both of the much heralded MLSE franchises in Toronto. Well, so far, the reviews on each of their moves has been quite positive. Quite honestly, it should be; as the Leafs have certainly improved on paper.
The question now is: Will [...]

The toughest cut for Toronto Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson may have been Tyler Bozak, a free agent signee from the University of Denver who had a strong camp but was a tough fit initially, in part because of salary cap concerns."Unfortunately it was the numbers," Wilson remarked of Bozak."He certainly played well enough to be here, but not enough to play above a veteran...

Per Sportsnet:
The odd men out at this point are Nikolai Kulemin and Jiri Tlusty. Both came into camp with jobs to lose and, at least for now, have lost them.

Unless you're up late like me - because you played a game of pick-up at 11pm and now you can't sleep - this ought to be the morning Leaf post welcoming you to Game #1 of the Brian Burke era. Before you get too excited, Vesa Toskala will start the season. Before you let that get you down, recall that it was Toskala who backstopped the Leafs to a 3-2 win over Detroit to open...

from Damian Cox of the Toronto Star,
Over the course of the past 10 months, Burke has reconstructed the Leaf front office, keeping some elements that were there when John Ferguson was in charge – chief amateur scout Dave Morrison, assistant GM and Marlies GM Jeff Jackson – and dumping others.
