Maybe he'll fit in well in the windy city now. He is, after all, a big bag of wind himself. Don't expect Eric Lindros to be joining the Toronto Maple Leafs this season. Maybe next season, but not this season. That was the word yesterday from a source directly involved in the discussions, and, trust me, he is in a position to draw an intelligent conclusion.
Flyers are stubborn.
They're not eager to cooperate with Eric or the Leafs at this point. Don't buy the propaganda emanating from the Raptors or the shamelessly biased media assigned to cover the team. The Raptors, with the exceptions of Vince Carter and Antonio Davis, are a collection of below-average, overpaid athletes. They're no better under Len Wilkens than they were under Butch Carter. By now, Lui Passaglia was supposed to have joined the B.C. Lions as a club executive.
