Drafted the Sedins and Kesler in Vancouver, won a ring in Anaheim, drafted Kadri (who I begrudgingly admit is a player), silver in the last Olympics.

Said "it's not impossible" to sign all 3.

I took it as they are actively shopping those guys, especially Miller. Usually he gives reassurance that they will do any and everything to keep these guys, he sounded different

Trade Myers for Bogosian was first.

Then trade youth to get more veteran scoring talent.

Then This core group is good enough to get it done, they have proved it.

Then Stafford has never gotten a chance, put him on the first line.

Then, the fans dont know how to build a winning team, with the trade the big 3 talk.

Like I said.

They really sound pathetic today. Total joke

I can understand why people don't like him.


I just happen to believe that if he was GM here, things would be vastly different.

Was one of the knocks on him in Tornto that he did not have enough players from Canada on that team. He was American born and he like players from the US.

I think that was mostly a Don Cherry thing (US/Canada).

Burke definitely has a North American bias. That is fact. But I don't think he differentiates between Canada or US.

Burke - Nooooooooooooooooo way , The answer is Dudley , He has helped rebuild numerous franchises , Was doing a good job in Atlanta as GM when he lost his job due movement of Franchise and ownership change .
Enough already . Bump Darcy upstairs and make him VP of hockey operations . He can oversee the new complex being built downtown .

Enough already.

Toronto media and fans ran with that Cherry comment though.

I think if asked most GMS would say they prefer NA players over Euros.
