If Button had had a Burke type above him bridging the gap between the two management eras we likely would've protected Giguere and maybe Kuba in the expansion draft and certainly wouldn't have bought out St. Louis. A lot of Button's biggest mistakes were in the first few months before he knew the team. Burke will prevent similar disaster from Treliving because Burke knows the current team better than Treliving.
