An unnamed hockey team has approached the Maple Leafs about the availability of former president and general manager Brian Burke, who remains with the team as an advisor, according to Toronto Sun report.

Burke was fired in early January, but remains under contract as a special advisor to the board. Permission was granted and that team met with Burke, a source told the paper. He has also been working with USA Hockey as a scout.
