The Toronto Maple Leafs have a few vacancies to fill and Elliotte Friedman suggests that they want to use one of those open spots on Sean Burke.
In his latest ’30 Thoughts’ post, Friedman says this:
7. Now that the season is over Sean Burke will look for a new team. Toronto will be a pursuer, although not for the GM position. (Sportsnet)
Going from assistant to the GM/goaltending coach straight to general manager is a leap I highly doubt Sean Burke is ready to make for any team so it doesn’t surprise me the GM title won’t be on the table for Burke in Toronto.
