Small sample size, but at this rate the trade will go down as the biggest steal of Burke's career.
Yes, Berra started 2 games for the Avs.

Here is some color from NHL.com:

1st Game: 5-4 OT loss to Jets @ WPG
Quote:
Berra, whom the Avalanche acquired from the Calgary Flames on March 5 and subsequently signed to a three-year contract extension, made his Colorado debut. He stopped 22 shots (of 27) in his first game since March 3 when he was with Calgary.
"I was nervous," Berra said. "I didn't play my best game."
2nd Game: 5-1 loss to Sharks @ SJS
Quote:
Colorado coach Patrick Roy's decision to start No. 3 goaltender Reto Berra and rest Semyon Varlamov and Giguere quickly backfired. The Sharks grabbed a 2-0 lead on goals by Boyle and Marleau, and Roy benched Berra for Giguere 10:11 into the game. Berra allowed two goals on five shots.
