An excerpt from the Toronto Sun (Lance Hornby):

Coach Ron Wilson began looking at the Maple Leafs’ first line centre hole yesterday, with a big question mark where No. 13 used to be.

“When I find out for sure about Mats Sundin, then I’ll worry about life with or without him,” said Wilson, in town for summer meetings with general manager Cliff Fletcher.

“Cliff and I just roughed out some lines, but a lot can change between now and Sept. 19 (when training camp opens).”

Sundin remains non-commital about playing or retiring, with agent J.P. Barry saying in recent days that the captain’s indecision could be a hint he’s not coming back.

Refusing to get into specific candidates, Wilson said Sundin’s winger Nik Antropov would be among “lots of guys” he hopes to audition at camp for the job should Sundin not play.
