  1. Thank you for listening to my feedback. Keep the clips longer, after the interview when these guys break down some of the interview. It's radio gold. Post interview chatter, please. Always include it! You guys realize this interview and 80% of the show was off air on CHEK today?

  2. Brian nailed it on the head; only the best teams in the league should be capped out. If you're capped out but you still can't make the playoffs, you clearly have some management problems.

  3. Now you know why canucks will trade no one at the deadline.i have said all along Bo goes to Boston july 1

  4. He should still be the GM and President of Hockey Operations in Vancouver. He turned the team around in 5 years when he came to Vancouver in 1998. If he had goalie in 2003 we would have won the cup!

  5. Pertaining to being "capped out"
    Are we not able to retain 50% on Bo, Delia, Kuzmenko, and Schenn?
    Am I missing something?

  6. I love Burke's take on the Vancouver media …. there's the (sensible, responsible, more factual) "mainstream" media, and then there's the "fringe" media that floods social media with negative, dubious, "invented" and ridiculous stories (clickbait turds). I just wish the responsible media would call out the BS stories and their authors for what they are …. crap & BS! Most of the BS artists regularly illustrate their lack of hockey knowledge and historical perspective regarding the NHL & the Canucks!

  7. I miss Burke's segment with Dan Russel on Sports Talk. You don't always agree with Burkie, but he is passionate, and holds no punches. What Burke said about teams that are not contending should not be maxing out their cap is so true – remember at the start of the season how the Canucks were talking rather triumphantly for spending the absolute maximum the cap allowed? I felt even at that time that the attitude was problematic – why should a team that, at best, was contending for a wild card, be maxing out their cap? If anything, this showed the incompetency, not competency, of management…
