EXACTLY what I was thinking!

So ya you lost a big guy in your front office.. Geez grow some balls and just find another one. You're supposed to be a great GM Burke. How about you shut up, man up and hire someone else. This isn’t the end of the world!

Maybe they think Anaheim owes Toronto for giving them Burke.

Probably why the Ducks donate some of their talent every year to the Leafs.

Now i feel bad.

Maybe we should give him Gomez

Sucks because I don't think Burke is that bad of a GM I think he's average, but it's stuff like that that makes people dislike him. He talks too much and is too arrogant. He also makes false expectations. He demeanour is the exact opposite of Gauthier. Two extremes.

"I've been pushing for that for a while," Burke said. "I believe that if one organization has been good at identifying people and training them they should be compensated with draft picks."

Does having the cash to hire a whole bunch of ex-GM's equate to being "good at identifying people" in Burke's mind?

nvm.
