Mike Komisarek

This will make the Boston games that much better. But with Orr having his back, how will Lucic react? These two guys hate each other, with a passion. They fought 3 times last season alone. Thornton and Orr have some history as well.

Some Habs fans figured they just let their future captain go. I'm not so sure about that.

"Would like to thank the Montreal Canadiens organization and the Toronto Maple Leafs for a new start! Merci!" Komisarek, 27, said via his Twitter account.

Komisarek's phone started ringing the moment free agency kicked off at noon.

"We talked to a number of teams and we whittled it down to the market place that made the most sense," Matt Keator, Komisarek's agent, explained. "To go to an Original Six team, in a city that has so much passion, was attractive."

So, too, was the fact that Komisarek has dealt with Burke, the general manager of Team USA, as the 2010 Vancouver games approach.

Welcome to Toronto Mike!
