I agree...looks like they'll drop out of top 10 and maybe further... Dallas may draft the goalie. Do the Blues want to trade? |

Isles fan since 1972

Rags pass on both Gormley and Fowler, which Fowler goes to the Ducks. How fitting! |
| If you see someone down on the ground, you lend them a hand. Unless they're a Rangers fan, then you kick them in the face. | |

So for two straight years the offers for Kaber weren't good enough. Is it possible that Burke is overvaluing his player? |

Absolutely...I'm just being sarcastic. Burke is a conceded jerk (that rhymed) and would tell you that Vesa Toskala is the next Ken Dryden and you're lucky he's trading him to you for a 6th round pick. |

he's a broken record and beyond annoying now. you were so right about him being an ahole the last 2 years when his name came up on this board. I've lost any respect i had left for him. |

and you know how much I hate to be an "I told you so..." This is why I didn't have a problem with Snow RETURNING verbal shot at him last year when Burke was mouthing off about Tavares and Garth. Burke loves the sound of his own voice. Plain and simple. And if you want evidence that he gets a free pass from the Canadian press, here you are... no one has asked the question... "Brian, considering you have now dangled Kaber for two drafts, is it possible that the fact that no one has made a deal is evidence that your view of him does not match what other GMs around the league think of him?" When has anyone asked him that question? And people wonder if there is a Toronto ML bias in the Canadian hockey media.

I4C, I had all the respect in the world for him after what he did in tearing down and building up that Ducks team that eventually won the cup. He was credited with helping youth hockey grow in California and now there's many prospects coming out of that state. I know he made some poor moves after that Cup season and was eventually let go. But the "EGO" thing with him is beyond belief lately. Is it a ploy? Or is he trying to be the NHL GM version of lady Gaga with the "gotta keep myself in the news" antics. I've read and heard many an interview with him from the Ontario news feeds and the guy, with all his hockey smarts seems to be his own worst enemy at times. I may rank on Garth Snow but at least he has the gumption to keep most info close to the cuff. Burke made some good moves in getting Phaneuf and some others. But this media stuff using Kaberle to phish for trades is beyond old. We goof on Eklund and his moronic trade rumors. Burke is the Eklund of GM's right now. I have to attend a college grad party today...hopefully my buddies and I can sneak away, inside and watch the US world cup game and rounds 2-7 of the draft while everyone else is outside. Can't wait to hear 3 more Burke interviews. :lol: |

For anyone interested, this website had up to date draft order of each round including trades and how teams added picks http://www.prosportstransactions.com/hocke...Trades/2011.htm Unfortunately, NJ gets to decide which year they will lose their first round pick due to the Kovy signing. I can guarantee you they will not lose this year's first round pick. |
