Leafs take on Huricanes tonight
January 31st, 2008
Tonight the Maple Leafs will take on the Carolina Hurricanes. There have been no shortage of rumors in Toronto this week and as it gets closer to the trade deadline they will probably not stop coming in.
Ben Ondrus has been called up by the Maple Leafs. It is rumored that Chad Kilger will not play tonight in the game against Carolina, he apparently has had some personal issues come up.
Mats Sundin and Cliff Fletcher have announced that they will no longer be discussing any trade rumors regarding the captain with the media. Sundin, who is an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season has been under tremendous pressure from fans to waive his no trade clause and be traded to fetch prospects and picks.
No one is certain of the captains fate except for maybe himself. Fletcher has acknowledged that Sundin controls his fate and he is in the driving seat.
One option that several media members are now discussing is re-signing Sundin and trading the players around him. Some names which have come up are Nik Antropov, Matt Stajan, Tomas Kaberle, Darcy Tucker and Jason Blake.
