The ROR fiasco, in and of itself, was more then enough for ANY GM in this league to be fired on the spot, let alone one that had a very poor track record both with his current team and with his last team.

I am not going to say he didn't have a few (small) wins: the Smid trade, the Cammi trade, both wins IMO, even if not home runs. The Monahan pick was nice, though it was a pretty tough pick to screw up. The Erixon trade seems to have worked out OK, even though it is still kind of early to judge that one. But all in all, the good did not outweigh the bad and clearly Burke agrees with that assessment.
