- Naming Phaneuf captain
- Treatment of Kadri in the media
- Failure to find a proper first line center during his tenure (sound familiar?)
- Failure to reach playoffs while with the club

I could go on. And Bryan murrary largely built the 07' ducks team. Burke added Pronger who wanted to leave Edmonton, and Neidermeyer.
He's not going back into a similar situation, he's going into another Canadian bubble market, with the highest vegas odds to finish last overall in the league.

We'll see what happens, but I was skeptical of this idea from the day rumors were going around. Would have much preferred Shannahan
