Don't be surprised if Maple Leafs RW Jeff O'Neill is dealt before the end of the season. Management can't be happy with his whining to the media about the way coach Paul Maurice is using him and club officials weren't happy with O'Neill's level of conditioning when he reported to camp.

Asked several times for a guarantee that the team will remain in Pittsburgh long-term or a promise that he won't attempt to move the team to Hamilton, Jim Balsillie did not answer directly but cited the need for a new facility and pushed the team's agreement with gaming company Isle of Capri for arena funding.
