Default Burke interviewed in Toronto Star

hopefully this wasn't posted already

like the opening where they wonder if the Leafs have a better future than the Flames

“What’s made the difference for us is the impact our coach, Bob Hartley, and our captain, Mark Giordano, have made,” said Burke. “Giordano is lights out as a captain and a leader and Hartley has changed the culture. We tend to outwork the opposition.

“Bob won’t get any coach-of-the-year votes. But he should. Because of our coach and our captain we’ve played better than anyone expected, including me.”

Burke offered no thoughts on the Leafs — himself a veteran of the Twitter wars, he was only vaguely familiar with the social media troubles of the Reimer family — but argued his team’s strong play in recent weeks isn’t the same kind of meaningless blip that the Leafs delivered at the end of his first season.



“We’ve been doing it for two months,” he said. “It’s not a new phenomenon.”
