The N.H.L. fined the Toronto Maple Leafs an undisclosed amount after ruling that Coach Ron Wilson was guilty of tampering when he expressed interest in Vancouver forwards Henrik and Daniel Sedin before they had reached free agency. In announcing the penalty, Bill Daly, the deputy commissioner, said that Wilson had made reference to the Sedin twins in an interview while they were still under contract. They each re-signed with Vancouver.
