PrintThe National Hockey League has delivered its findings regarding the reported tampering allegations between the Vancouver Canucks and Toronto Maple Leafs' organizations.
In a media release, NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly issued a statement on Wednesday confirming the following:
"That Ron Wilson, Head Coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, violated the provisions of NHL By-Law 15 relating to inappropriate public comments by speaking generally to his Club's potential interest in negotiating with Daniel and Henrik Sedin prior to such time as those players' existing contracts with Vancouver had expired. The League has imposed a fine on the Maple Leafs' organization as a result;
More of the statement from Daly at TSN. Were the Leafs TV segment and Sedins tampering issue getting mixed up by the media? Or is Gillis pursuing both issues? To clarify, this has nothing to do with the Leafs TV segment which mentioned Kevin Bieksa and Alexandre Burrows in a possible trade with Tampa. The league exonerated Burke for those comments.
Who cares. Drop the puck.

They league investigated all of it. Here’s the Globe’s article if you want to clarify things for yourself.

Well it is kinda gay the way Burke was caught on camera saying Bieksa and Burrows were being offered up in a trade.
The Sedin thing doesn’t even enter my radar though…
Better circle October 24 on the calendar, Ron Wilson is going to have his boys fired up for that one lol.
