I mean, really? What other GM has had two softballs like this with the arguably top 2 D at the time falling in his lap?
He parlayed it in to a career defining cup win then sewered the leafs and has done pretty much nothing here in a leadership role.
Dumb luck, good run, off you go

I am no fan of Burke, but he still had to get the Pronger deal done, and had the foresight to get Rob. The Sedins draft was good work too.
