Lowe: Now look, I know we have some history and we're not exactly best of friends. But hear me out. You're about to embark on a rebuilding process for an Alberta-based team. And there is literally nobody on the planet who has more experience with that than I do.
Burke: That is true.
Lowe: I mean, I've been doing it for 13 straight years.
Burke: You did make the finals that one time.
Lowe (indignantly): We all make mistakes.
Burke: OK, fine, I'll humor you. What's your plan for rebuilding the Flames?
Lowe: Well, it's a simple three-year plan. And to make sure everyone keeps their eye on that goal, I'd bring along my patented Oilers Rebuild Countdown Clock™.
(He wheels out a digital scoreclock that reads "3y:00m:00d:00h:00m:00s". He hits a button, and it begins to count down.)
Burke: Impressive.
Lowe: Yeah. I find it keeps everyone really focused. Builds a real sense of urgency within the organization. No excuses, you know?
Burke: Uh, it just reset itself back to three years.
Lowe: Yeah, it's programmed to do that every few minutes.
Burke: Get out.
