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.

Is it that difficult for Garrioch—or whomever is speculating here—do a little back-checking in his research? Burke has said a few times now that several candidates are unavailable for interview or release by their current teams to pursue the Flames job until after the draft. THAT is the reason for the delay.
