I think KK has done an excellent job in the business of the Calgary Flames. And if it were up to me, I would keep him in the organization, running the business.

However, at the same time, the Flames desperately need a hockey guy to run and guide hockey operations (something I don't think KK has done well).

My preference was JD but that ship has sailed. Burke is not my first choice, however, I am a lot more interested in Burke as a Pres of HO than I would be as a GM. I think Burke could really instill a solid organizational vision. And he would bring in so many strong individuals to build his team.

I also think Burke is excellent at getting value for his players in trades - very tough negotiator. If the Flames are going to start selling, I would be very excited to have Burke around for that (even if he weren't the GM, his presence wuld make a difference). I do not have much faith in Feaster in that regard.

Would love to see a President of Hockey Ops brought in. If it is Burke, I am fine with that. I could see him come in as President and interim GM and then bring in a full time GM in the summer.

And Burke would not be afraid to make the tough decisions that await this franchise.
