From Tim Wharnsby at the Globe & Mail,
Nonis was expected to have dinner last night with Toronto lawyer Gordon Kirke, who is part of the Leafs’ search committee. Nonis is to then meet today with Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment president Richard Peddie.
The Leafs aren’t the only team interested Nonis, as he continues to be wooed by the Atlanta Thrashers and an unidentified third NHL team that still has a general manager in place.
The third team is believed to be the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis president John Davidson could not be reached for comment last night.
Update 9:23pm ET: More from Wharnsby, later in the day,
The meeting between the Toronto Maple Leafs and prospective general manager candidate David Nonis was described more as a session of getting acquainted rather than a formal interview.

Thanks Wharnsie, knew this about a week ago!
I love how Nonis is the new flavour of the month. The media is just dying for something to print (as this piece gloriously exemplifies) during a period in which the Leafs brass still have their head in the sand.
Is Nonis the answer? Non.
