Wouldn't surprise me if all he talks about is his role for Team USA.

I bet thats going to be most of the interview. He will probably also say that they are trying to trade SOB, but it's going to take time.

We just sent him through waivers.

We literally couldn't give him away. I don't think anything's coming.

recap for those that can't listen?

What I expect

Burke strides into the room, sits down takes a long sip of water, undoes his tie and glares at the gathered throng

Then he leans into the microphone taps it a couple of times and bellows Truculence!!!!.

Then he stands up kicks his chair into Eric Francis' face and struts out of the room.

At least in my mind that's what I want to see.

And they are willing to retain part of his salary.

Jeez does Burke smoke? Listening on my headphones I can clearly hear him wheezing.

You're right, players clearing waivers and then being traded shortly later doesn't happen multiple times a season.

Would not rule out buying O'Brien out after this season, but he hasn't even looked at that as an option yet.

-first part of building a team is hard work and getting players to buy in, thinks Hartley has done that very well.

-Doesn't believe Hartley instigated the 'incident' in Vancouver. All Bob did was start two big guys

-Praising the work Bob has gone, loves coaches that have a tough love approach

Burke re-confirms his support for Hartley as head coach and indicates that he is happy with him. He is hard on the players and creates a learning environment.
