"Thought a lot about Brian Burke’s comments to The Toronto Star after the Luke Schenn note last..."

Thu, 21 Jun 2012 11:32:43 -0400

“Thought a lot about Brian Burke’s comments to The Toronto Star after the Luke Schenn note last week. I concede that I should have used the word “reports” instead of “rumblings” in my copy. Sometimes, in trying to avoid overuse of one word, I get too cute. I decided to write about it after seeing the Schenn-to-Edmonton note in The Montreal Gazette and The Toronto Sun. Other than that, I stand by everything written: that Burke loves the big stage; that the Oilers like Schenn and have asked about him; that other teams believe he’d be a better player out of Toronto. Burke said, “Some editorial control at Hockey Night would be nice for a change.” I recognize he is sensitive about hearing his players’ names mentioned in rumours. But, as a long-time GM, he knows that, by participating in the process, he does have some control over what is said, because I’m obligated to report his responses. But, for months now, he has refused to participate in the process, including to a question posed as recently as two weeks ago. It’s like an election: If you don’t vote, you’ve got no right to complain.”
