Definitely put me in the camp that would like him to get on with it already.
Scorched earth would imply trading all our vets/UFAs, wouldn't it?

Burke isn't concerned about help for now because there is absolutely nothing he can do that 'helps us now'. The team isn't one or two players away from mattering, it's minimum two or three strong drafts away from mattering. He knew this when he got here.

Let him do the job. Waiting for Vanek and Moulson is the right thing to do. Teams that lose out on those two will not quit and go home.
