The Flames drafting might actually get better under Burke's watch. However, I also remain terrified until I at least hear who will be hired as the GM.
I doubt he does anything there. Again he's not here to be GM, he's just keeping the seat warm till he finds one. He will likely let the future GM pick make the decisions then.
