An athletic trainer's job is more than just rushing out on to the ice when a guy gets hurt. A part of his job was also designing and monitoring the work-out regimens for players to ensure they don't get hurt in the first place. The implication was that the training staff (that Mark Burnstein was the head of) was not good at this and it played a huge role in the number of muscle-pull and tear related injuries the Canucks would see.
