Who wants to be his puppet?

Amazing how other teams fire the GM and actually have a plan in place.
I can't see any GM with experience wanting to come in and not have full GM power. I realize that maybe it might be jumping to conclusions, but I don't see how Burke could just sit on his hands and not assume some GM tasks.... it's in his blood.

I could see a rookie GM coming in though and liking the situation from a professional growth point of view. Having the experience of Burke over your shoulder would be a good safety net and I am sure Burke would be a good mentor.

Maybe the Flames should go with the Burke/Conroy tag-team, with Conroy assuming more direct GM powers.
