Yep. And with us there on Thursday, it makes sense why he would be there.

Surely Burke was just watching a hockey game, but didn't want to sit with Boston fans. He does this several times a year. Boston is his other home.

A town named Miami was in two counties in Ohio.
No town with that name exists now, but it is in wide use in the state.

Miami of Ohio, is in the town of Oxford, OH

There is no Miami University in FL. Though there is the U of Miami in
that state.

So he isn't here tonight, even though he usually likes to talk to the
other GM.

He could be? It's a little over 90 minute flight to Boston.... He could very well have spent Tuesday with his kids, catch the Bruins game last night... Flown back this afternoon to catch the game tonight and be on the red eye back to Boston tonight.

I'm sure he's smart enough to include a business venture such as scouting so he can write off his flights to MLSE.... The team playing there Thursday made it possible to spend some time with his kids..

Nothing to see here IMO.

I think it's safe to say if there's one thing we've learned about Burke during his time here, it's that you never know what to expect.

Speculation is mostly useless with this guy.

Well, Ontario, California is named after the province. It was founded by two brothers from Eastern Ontario and they named it after their home province.
