Nieuwendyk is consistently the only rumor that appears about the Flames GM choice. This perplexes me for several reasons:

1. He was fired from a GM job he held for a short time in Dallas where he made a series of poor moves.
2. The circumstances around him leaving the team have sullied his reputation with Flames fans. We don't forget. I don't think he's particularly enamored with the Flames ownership himself.
3. The guy doesn't even want to come here and Burke is apparently deadset, for whatever reason, on Joe Nieuwendyk.

So in conclusion could these rumors **** off and could Burke stop chasing a GM that is comparable to Sherman and Feaster with his body of work.
