This would've been a stunning headline 35 years ago.
In a move fitting of Brian Burke, the Maple Leafs have signed former Rangers goon Colton Orr according to TSN's Bob McKenzie. The deal is for four years at $1 million per season.
EN Says: It's a nice move for the Maple Leafs. They haven't had a true tough guy - a vital commodity on any Brian Burke team - for a season and a half. And Orr's one of the best enforcers in the league in the standpoint that he'll fight anyone. He's one of the few guys in the league who will willingly go with Big Georges Laraque in Montreal.
We will miss seeing Orr go with Penguins goon Eric Godard up to six times a season:
