The club will announce it Tuesday. 4 year deal I believe so he's there for awhile.

[glenn]

oh yeah, 5.6 million over 4 years. He's also best friends with Burke and they were also college roomates which suggests the Ducks GM isn't far behind. This sounds pretty sweet for the leafs. A wealth of experience there for sure.

damn glenn - you beat me to it. I guess the fact that I had dinner got in the way.
yeah, happy. the thought that Burke will follow - I will dream sweet dreams tonight.

this, I have to add, is one of the toughest jobs in the NHL - behind the bench in Toronto.

[glenn]

oh yeah, no doubt. I had to steal this post from ya. All quiet on the habs front plus it's pretty exciting news for Toronto especially the Burke possibility. He may be the only hockey mind i respect more than Gainey. What he lacks in personality, he makes up for with great decisions.

[blueandwhite]

I agree- plus he really seems to want to be here - which is huge. sometimes we get the reluctant person in and that's bad for morale.
