Maple Leafs' Brian Boyle: Open to returning

Boyle, who is a pending free agent, would be open to returning to the Maple Leafs, reports the Toronto Sun.

Boyle described Toronto as "a special place to play in" and would be willing to return. Boyle had 13 goals and 22 points in 54 games with Tampa, but just three assists in 21 games in Toronto, as he was used primarily in a checking role.
