Leafs Draft Central: Brian Burke, Dave Nonis, Dallas Eakins Interviews

“There’s a chance we make a positional pick here but I don’t think so.”

Sounds like Burke will be sticking with the best-athlete available-philosophy and, as reported earlier, the Leafs GM says there’s a “good chance” it’s a defenceman based on his reading of the first four picks. Of course, the reading could be different than what plays out or a trade could impact the order.

Both Burke and Dave Nonis were quite clear about just how little is going on with trade activity at the moment.

After the jump is Dave Nonis’ interview from yesterday and today’s Leafs Nation Google+ live chat with Dallas Eakins. Be sure to look out for MLHS’ own Mislav Jantoljak, who asks Dallas a few questions.

Nonis:

Eakins:

    Some signals out there that we might be getting Luongo. Rather have Luongo than Nash. But for who?
    Kadri, McKegg, Reimer & Franson/Komisarek (depending on salary cap issues) for Luo and 3rd rd pick? Too much or too little?
    Draft Forsberg at #5 – if we stay there?

    Okay, time for BBQ and some rums and cokes to get ready for hopefully an eventful night! But not holding my breath!

    I was never a Kadri brasher, it was just really surprising to hear Eakins confirm some of the rumors Kadri bashers have hinted at over the years. I’m waiting for the ‘Eakins ruined Kadri’ crap to begin.
