Don't recall the Maher comments.

I think the question asked to Burke was his relationship with Weisbrod and he said they didn't have one as they barely talked and he wasn't around much. Something to that effect.
I don't think any assistant GM would make a positive impression on his new boss if he didn't at least go out of his way to discuss business with him and try to get to know him. Seems like Weisbrod just did his own thing.
Given how he has a past relationship with Benning I imagine things may work out better there. I would think at the very least Canucks fans will be seeing more players drafted from US college in the future for better or worse. Not that their drafting can get much worse.
