I didn't know it will take hockey topic to disagree with you on so many levels (and I am not a Leaf fan, not at all) ...
I am not a fan of Burke (I don't like people who seem to be upset 24/7 ....), but I respect the guy. He knows what he's doing and most people would agree (based on his GM resume). The interview you are talking about was very subpar work of the radio host. How would you react if someone would have asked you the same question? ... what an idiot, Moore that is. Just looking to make headlines, right? And he did so, for a brief moment.

Q: One last question for you, Brian Burke, changing coaches is always an option, but a lot of people on a panel I was hosting this weekend said it was time for the general manager to be changed.
Burke: “Well, I haven’t heard that. And I don’t know what panel you were hosting. That’s up to ownership. I wish you’d told me before you asked me to do this interview that that was going to be your last question, a nice little cheap shot before you get off the air.”

You really think that this the one question proves that he's the wrong man for the job??? And then you mention ownership again???? Why?
BTW, who would be your choice for the GM? I am just curious.
