Burkie talking about Buf coming back for Winnipeg.  That should be illegal, that a player can rest up for half a year and then rejoin the team into the season fresh for the playoffs.  Didn't Scott Niedermayer do that too?  Said he was retiring and then rejoined the Ducks half way in the season they won the Cup? In both cases they can get a more rested elite D only playing half a season, when they enter the playoffs.

Kinda nice not listening to that runaway train Cherry and his buddy in the caboose Maclean.

I appreciate the management perspective that Burke brings,.  lots about hockey is a guessing game, but it’s clearer without the emotional chilli cook off.

Actual facts and stories that make sense.

To be fair... that's not easy to accomplish tho. 

Coming out of retirement right into perfect game shape.
