I’ve never met a nicer guy than Brian the guy is a class act. When he was living in Vancouver he gave me and my buddy a pair of his season tickets to the giants game . He just wanted us to have a good time.
Hey man, always great content! Just one audio suggestion, consider using a hi pass filter on the microphones, you can probably cut everything below 100-150hz, theres tons of low end there that isnt needed and really muffles the sound if listening with a subwoofer. 👍 You may have already addressed as this is an old vid haha.
Leafs tried to cheat and overpaid long term for Tavares as a free agent.. crushed their depth and ability to build up the D or goaltending
Burke needs to put the bottle down
Ask Burke why he had such a hard on for Kessel, with Bozak as his top center when Kadri was sitting around waiting to start
Burke needs to retire.
Burke is a blowhard with no class, a bigmouth, he had his medicine served to him ice cold and it made him a bitter monster, he intentionally used young Nails situation to attack Lowe due to his vendetta, Burke has no class, and he was a rotten role model to.Oilers management gave the green light to Eakins to pick 1 player to TORCH COMPLETELY to get the locker room under control t make an example of, Katz just gave permission, Eakins should go help Burke clean out his closet to make sure there are no more monsters hiding in there.
Drafting Riels is the only thing I will give Burkie credit for during his time in Toronto. Everything else just blew-up in his face and pissed the fans off something awful. 🙅♂️
nail yakupov is a good example of the scouting bias picking a player, and then that player gets cemented as the number 1. despite warning signs. and lets say one scout challenges the consensus, he will be jumped and mocked.
An old arrogant BSing American shitting on a young teenage Russian athlete, sounds like Burke alright. Spittin' Chiclets should be ashamed of themselves for not coming to the young player's defense.
I almost fought Mike Tyson. He was on TV and I was watching. Lucky for him.
What’s with the tie?
Burke is an asshole
Was Yakupov a GM draft choice for the oilers, or was that a GM call?
Have another drink brian
Overrated
Brad May was a plug. Shows you how arrogant Burke is. Hindsight is always 20/20
The guy sitting next to Burke needs to learn how to hold his microphone.
5:56 sounds like my old man
I miss when Brian Burke was gm here in Vancouver the guy was full of great quotes everyday he used to give the reporters shit when you they would write something he didn’t like.
So they call it a laptop but you're not actually supposed to put it on your lap.
Same reason you shouldn't carry a phone in your pocket.
5:05 – Burkie – "It's all scripted now; the agents tell 'em, who's your hero ("my Dad")."
7:23 Also Burke – "So my hero is my dad."
What’s the deal with his tie always undone? Asking legitimately
Brandon is easier than moosejaw… Winnipeg doesn't have WHL either lol it is not hard to fly to Regina and see the kid play.
Very interesting !
Burke: “Everyone is on a script and lies and says their dad is their hero”
2 minutes later
Burke: “My dad is my hero”
It is obvious that since Bettman was hired to make sure hockey thrives in the USA in 94 he will ensure that only American teams will win the Cup. Not a "conspiracy" or a theory it is a fact. He has never allowed two Canadian teams to meet in the finals even though in 31 years there certainly were teams that were "good enough" to meet in the finals. He does this with the officiating in the playoffs – all the no calls against the American team and the petty calls against the Canadian team. Regardless of who goes to the finals he makes sure the American team will always win. Pure corruption.
Hockey talking heads are such stooges, Morgan Reilly sucks too lmao.
Isnt Burkes son mentally ill?
Brian burke is older tha1. I think his brain is rotten. Talking shit for nothing
Great interview.
Nail sucked
He has to have a high Blood Pressure issues!!!
I've gone through Moose Jaw in the winter. It was cold and snowy but that's to be expected. I stayed at a nice old hotel on what seemed like the main drag; nice dinner, fine room, hockey on TV… who could ask for anything more?
