You wouldn't think an axe that took this long to fall would've had the power to remove the head...

That took longer than expected.

What a sorry franchise.

That was pretty quick but deserved. Terribly run franchise. They need to pull an Oiler and tank, because they have virtually nothing going for them.

What do you think has been happening in Columbus the past 15 years outside of 2008?

Ever since he Howson publicly threw Rick Nash under the bus last trade deadline he should have been gone. Terrible GM and a terrible franchise.

Didn't they get 3 first rounders and some promising players from the Rangers? If they get a half decent GM in there they could beat the Flames back to being relevant in the league with those pieces.

I'd love the opportunity to work with JD and the management team he'll assemble.

I really doubt it, even though that is where i speculated Burke would go directly following his termination.

You guys got a point there. Add to my previous statement they should beef up scouting, because the current group seems to annually draft slackers.
