Jonas Siegel of 640Toronto reports that the Leafs have named 3 alternate captains, Michael Komisarek, Tomas Kaberle and Francois Beauchemin. Ron Wilson has stated that on November 1, one of these players may be named captain of the Leafs.

TSN’s Darren Dreger is reporting that the Leafs will be sending Tyler Bozak, Jiri Tlusty and Carl Gunnarsson to the AHL Marlies, but no announcement from the team has been made. Goaltender Joey McDonald and Jonas Frogren have cleared waivers and will report to the Marlies as well.

Mats Sundin is held a press conference in Sweden this morning announcing his retirement. Congratulations to Mats on a great career, his exodus from Toronto left a bad taste in some people's mouths, but that does not diminish the fact that he was a great Leaf.
