So let me get this straight. He cries and whines like a baby because Kevin Lowe signs penner to a monster deal, a huge raise from 400,000 a year to 5 plus million a year. He throws the biggest fit ever , even wants to fight lowe... will never speak to him again, and futhermore won't even speak to him regarding trade proposals that could better his team,, ( that's really mature)
So now, he signs Getzlaf to a monster contracting, basically imitating what lowe did?? Weren't getzlaf's and penners stats last year really similar? aren't they both young, unproven guys?? oh, I forgot, getzlaf got off to a good start this year, off to the hall of fame he goes , right?
Before you tell me how much better getzlaf is, remember something , and remember this good. It doesn't matter how penner started out this year in edmonton, it doesn't even matter how he finishes in edmonton. The only thing that would have mattered had idiot burke signed him is how he would have done in anaheim... and all indications after last year showed he would have done just as well.... why not..
Also , don't forget that if getzlaf would have been playing for edmonton this year with their talent he wouldn't be doing as well as he is either.
Burke is terrible for the nhl.. end of story

In two years, there will be no comparison between these two players. I'm not defending the way Burke acted, it was pretty ridiculous. But if you're trying to say that Burke's move was as weak as Lowe's, you're crazy. Burke reacted bad... yes, but he also made the right move here. It already seems pretty clear now, but it will be way more obvious in the future.

listen moron... if your such a big fan you can't see straight then that's your problem. First of all, he won nothing, the players did. Second of all, one year means nothing. Plenty of teams including carolina, the Rangers, calgary, phili, and others did very well then struggled for a time after and never got to the finals again,, some even missing the playoffs.....
sludawg, you shouldn't be allowed on these boards. You are a stupid person that knows nothing... you must be american eh?? lol ,, ok, sorry then, you just started watching hockey. Do you even know what an offside is dude??
don't even respond to this ,, don't embarass yourself

Hey, itsjustme - I might know a thing or two about the hockey, the Ducks, and Burke. I did the pre and post game radio shows for the Ducks for the two Stanley Cup Finals they have played in the last five years! The only moron is you! The Ducks have the very best record in hockey since the 2002 season - no one is better. Granted Burke wasn't there the whole time. But one title, a seven game loss for a title, two conference finals, the strike season, and one average year - has them as the very best team, with the very best record - look it up! The Ducks are not a one season wonder. I assume you live in the east and since our games are played late - past your bedtime- you figure the games don't count. Before getting vile or acting like a true idiot - you might review what I said - before going off- you could not have been more off base. I not only know more about hockey than you ever will - I know many of the people you flippantly pop off about - without ANY knowledge! Please stop embarassing yourself!!

I agree that Burke is a whiner and idiot, but most importantly he is a thug at heart.
Look what he did in Vancouver with Marc Crawford as his henchman.
Look what he's doing now. Hey Ducks, can you guys run any more goalies? Keep doing that and Giggy is going to get run (too bad, because he's about the only player on your team of chippy thugs that I like).
Ironic that Burke was hired by the NHL to be Vice-President in charge of discipline under the weasel Bettman.
Maybe he learned it all from his former coach Pat Quinn.
Yes, he is very bad for the NHL, but mostly for being a THUG.
I know hockey is a rough sport, but there is a line that Burke's teams always seem to cross. In a game that is based on mutual respect, I don't think Burke has any for the game. If you SoCal'ers knew anything about the game, you would understand what I'm saying. I would be very upset if he were the GM of my team, regardless of how many Cups we'd won. His tactics and style cheapen everything.
