Not saying you're wrong, but didn't Burke basically threaten the Bruins that he was going to offer sheet Kessel had they not agreed to trade him?

Yep, seems like Burke is not necessarily opposed to offer sheets at all.

"My objection was that I got blindsided by it at a time I thought was inappropriate," Burke stated. "This entire process has involved dialogue with (Bruins GM) Peter Chiarelli. I told him about reacquiring the pick, telling him the night before I got the pick that I intended to get the pick back. There has been no blindside or back door like Kevin Lowe did."
