It seems that Leafs' GM Brian Burke has not needed sleep this weekend.
Burke announced on Sunday morning that the team had made two blockbuster moves that will see all-star defenseman Dion Phaneuf and all-star goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere in Maple Leaf jerseys. Burke shipped forwards Jamal Mayers, Matt Stajan, and Nick Hagman with defenseman Ian White to the Flames for Phaneuf, forward Fredrik Sjostrom and prospect Keith Aulie. The second trade involved Giguere heading to Toronto from Anaheim for forward Jason Blake and goaltender Vesa Toskala.

sts in 63 games. He has seen a lot of time killing penalties and on the top line at times for Brian Burke’s club, who is in the outside of the playoffs looking in.
Ponder’s Call: Moore will add speed and defensive play to an already tight defensive team. It doesn’t hurt to have that reassurance for your third line though. Good deal for both teams.

sit tonight’s game against the New Jersey Devils. Dominic Moore will be shopped, but GM Brian Burke will not find any deals that please him. Antropov will be dealt to a Western Conference team, possibly the Edmonton Oilers or the Minnesota Wild, who are both still battling for their playoff lives.
