The one concern I have is that Burke let the other teams dictate the market for his players.

Instead of waiting for Cammy to be a consolation prize and hopefully start a bidding war he should have tried to play the inflated market by using the buffer space to sell his asset.

When Buffalo/NewYork were asking for the moon (1st, top prospect, roster player) he should have tried to force the issue with teams interested and take advantage of what the market was at the time.

He approaches a team yesterday and says we will do Cammy for a first straight up and maybe something might get done since they are scared by the high prices for Vanek/Moulson and don't want to be left out.

Columbus did that this morning by getting a second, third, and Frattin for Gaborik. Instead of waiting for the dominoes to fall they undercut the perceived market at the time and still got fair value back for Gaborik (almost just as good of value as Moulson/Vanek got)
