Came across this little nugget. It's just speculation by Garrioch, but food for thought nonetheless:

The Ottawa Sun's Bruce Garrioch names Washington's George McPhee and Vancouver's Mike Gillis -- two obvious choices -- as GMs who could lose their jobs soon. Garrioch figures McPhee could land in Calgary under president of hockey operations Brian Burke. This would explain why Burke has seemingly slowed his GM search.

George McPhee, Washington: His contract is up and there’s a good chance he’ll be thanked by the organization. He won’t be out of work long because Brian Burke may have a warm seat waiting for McPhee in Calgary. McPhee has been the VP and GM of the Caps for 16 years. They are always respectable but don’t have any banners hanging in their rafters either and this year they could miss the playoffs.
