it was a classic Burke moment wasn't it?

They should have let the camera run just a second or two more, the look on Murray's face when Burke tells him Leafs will take Kadri was priceless.

Jesus, don't go overboard on your praise.

Quite and pretty.

Must've been hard for you.

Might be the language barrier but I didn't mean it to diminish Kadri's contribution in any way my good man.

If that's what you're implying.

Funny how back when Kadri struggled, Sens fans would use that clip to mock Burke.

Now Burke looks like a smart man holding on his pick and the player he wanted.

Yup. Time makes fools of us all. Cowen is another "size" is the prize in junior type of player. Tricks people every year hoping for the next Chara.

Nurse is OK. Didn't develop into what Oilers thought he would but he's a NHL player at least.

Don't worry - when he posts it on Habroni Nation, it will have a different tone.

Sens fans insisting the sens tricked Burke into taking kadri is some of the all time dumb moments.

His biggest issue was the NHL changed the officiating during his tenure. Might have had to do with cleaning sh!t up after the Bertuzzi kerfuffle, but no fighting, less rough stuff and clutching and grabbing were introduced during his time with the Leafs. The team was slow and tough and a dinosaur.

Maybe if he paid a little more attention to grooming and hygiene, he could date a better quality of individual.

Sometimes it's hard to discern a players NHL future when they play 40 minutes of all purpose hockey in junior.

Very nice writing Lucas and Adam.

I enjoy well written articles that are more than just listing the current news or releases from the Leafs. That is why I subscribe to Mirtle's sports service. They are expanding to cover all the NHL teams.

I sometimes read James Tanner's Leafs website too. Paraphrasing Forest Gump - you never know what you are going to get.

Wonder when MiB will suggest trading Kadri again?

Not really a fair criticism of Cowen and the Senators.

The guy was looking good - until he suffered a degenerative hip injury.

They all seem to be present and accounted for... that puts him 97th percentile at least!
