Yes but the circumstances have changed haven't they. I'm not speculating that he won't only that he should consider not going to Toronto given the added baggage of a GM getting fired for him to become a Leaf. I really don't see anything good coming out of this for the Leafs or Luongo. Besides the Leafs have only always been bidding against themselves as there's never been any real proof of other teams being interested outside of hearsay. Yzerman despite being on the list of suitors wanted no part of that deal and I expect Panthers ownership also wants no part of committing that money in that market. Burke had the right idea just to wait out Gillis and got fired for it.
