On TSN, Brian Burke refused to comment on a deal that saw goaltender, Olaf 
Kolzig, defencemen Jamie Heward and Andy Rogers AND a fourth-round draft pick traded from the Tampa Bay Lightning to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for a prospect Richard Petiot.
Clearly, this is a salary cap deal that will need to be reviewed by the NHL since the 26-year-old Petiot is not worth all of those players. He has three goals, 14 assists in 45 games with Toronto Marlies of the AHL so far this season.
Kolzig is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer but will be off the roster for the remainder of the season due to an arm injury. In the eight games that he did play, he had a 2-4-1 record with an .898 save percentage.
Heward is also on the injured reserve list with a concussion. He has two assists in 13 games this season and is sidelined indefinitely.
Rogers has been in the AHL all season.
