7) Who is the NHL scoring leader? (No, its not Sidney Crosby. Its Jakub Voracek of the Philadelphia Flyers. Philly has never had an NHL scoring champion.)8) Speaking of the Flyers, their fans welcomed back Scott Hartnell with signs and loud applause when he returned last week as a member of the Columbus Blue Jackets. Why did the Flyers trade Hartnell, anyway? (Dont know.)9) If hes the NHL Star of the Week, we should be very familiar with him, no matter who he is, right? Okay, Jori Lehtera. (To say the St. Louis Blues have waited for him is to say they could have forgotten about him. Hes a 26-year-old from Helsinki, Finland who was drafted in 2008 and has been in the KHL for the past four years. His stats say he has never scored 20 goals in a season since he was 15. Hes on a pace for about 35 in his first NHL season.)10) Are there two Adam Silvers? (Well, more than two, obviously, but I looked it up because I couldnt believe that NBA commissioner Adam Silver was the one who came out in favour of legalized betting on pro sports. Amazingly, Twitter found me an Adam Silver who says he loves to bet on sports. He lives in Melbourne. Not sure if thats Australia or Florida, but Id bet on Florida.)11) I know nobody pays attention to batting average anymore, but shouldnt the guy with the richest contract in baseball history (Giancarlo Stanton, Miami Marlins, $325 million) have had at least one .300 season? (Well, shouldnt he?)12) At the end of the CFLs regular season, did Toronto Argos owner David Braley prefer to be known as the owner of the British Columbia Lions, and at the end of the CFL East semi-final in Montreal, did Braley prefer to be known as the owner of the Argos? (Yes and yes...youd think.)13) Should a goalie win the Hart Trophy? (Not unless his name is Dominik Hasek, or his game is as great as Haseks was in 1997 and 1998 for the Buffalo Sabres.)14) Can you do more for the team/franchise that picked you number one overall in the NHL draft than Mike Modano did for Minnesota/Dallas? (No. Modano holds franchise records for seasons and games played, goals, assists and points scored and he won the Stanley Cup. The only other number-one draft pick to do that was Mario Lemieux.)15) Once you learned that Pat Burns used to be a cop, didnt you want to find other hockey coaches who used to be cops? (His former profession always served coach Burns well, I thought.)16) Is it true that hockey referees are doing a good job if, when the game ends, you cant remember who they were? (Sure, I get it, but its easy to remember Bill McCreary for all the good games he called.)17) Whats the best game of this NHL season? (Ask me following Tuesdays Pittsburgh at Montreal game.)18) How do you play 10 NFL games without allowing a rushing touchdown? (Ask the Kansas City Chiefs.)19) After beating Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck the past two weeks, what more must Tom Brady do to sew up NFL MVP honours? (Beat Aaron Rodgers on November 30, I guess.)20) If Connor McDavid shouldnt fight, how many other hockey players shouldnt fight? And how do you decide who they are? (Dont know.)

Theres the upcoming draft in Philadelphia, a coaching staff to round out and a roster requiring some alterations and likely upheaval following another late season collapse. First up is the draft. The Leafs hold the eighth overall pick in a class thats more or less unpredictable – especially at the top. Nonis, attending the GM meetings in midtown Manhattan on Wednesday, reiterated what was first reported in the Toronto Sun, that his club would be open to moving up from their current perch or staying put if the price was too high. "Youve got a pretty good chance of getting a good player at eight or four," he said. "For us to move up the price tag would have to reflect that fact." Panthers general manager Dale Tallon is reported to have been actively shopping the first overall pick in a 2014 collection that lacks any clear-cut top prospect; defenceman Aaron Ekblad, as well as centres Sam Bennett, Leon Drasaitl, and Sam Reinhart are among the names in contention. Nonis went with a hulking, defensively-aware centre in Frederik Gauthier a year ago – his first draft as the Leafs boss – but is almost certain to add skill with the eighth pick this time around. "I wouldnt say its a priority that were going to go for the most skilled player," Nonis explained, "but I think the players that are going to be available in the top eight by and large are skill players so because of that fact theres a good chance thats what you end up with." Lacking in high-end deptth organizationally down the middle, the Leafs are likely to miss out on the top-end centres (Bennett, Draisaitl, Reinhart) if they stick with their current pick, but could lean in the direction of Sault St.dddddddddddd Marie pivot Jared McCann or a promising bunch of big, high-scoring wingers – Michael Dal Colle, Nick Ritchie, Brendan Perlini, Jake Virtanen – not to mention speedy, skilled types in Nikolaj Ehlers and Willie Nylander. "I think all those guys have ability," Nonis said. "Its not one [of those drafts] where youre going to get a hard-nosed plugger or shutdown defenceman; I think even the guys who are more rugged theres some pretty good players there." The search for a coaching staff to surround incumbent Randy Carlyle continues additionally. Opting to keep Carlyle as the lead bench boss in early May, the Leafs fired assistants Dave Farrish, Scott Gordon and Greg Cronin. Nonis declined to say how many candidates had been interviewed for jobs on the staff nor how many would interviewed in the future. "Id like to have it done sooner rather than later, but theres still quite a few people to go through and were not going to rush it," he said. As far an impending pack of free agents that includes Mason Raymond, Nik Kulemin, Dave Bolland and Jay McClement, Nonis hadnt ruled any out from a return to the club next season; the Leafs have had preliminary discussions with the Bolland camp. Nonis wouldnt rule out a return for former Leaf Leo Komarov, who plans to return to the NHL, though only at the right price-point. ' ' '
