Ok, so it sounds like Burke did accompany Treliving?

Crap on a cucumber . . . That's baaaaad news IMO. I don't think we'll be seeing Johnny in a Flames jersey for some time. . .

It was the part about Burke making comments to a stranger that is in question.

It's almost like as if Burke has never lied in public to fans before.

Do you seriously need me to spell out a conversation that you are having right now for you? Ok, here goes...

I said:

4) even if they were talking about the negotiations in public, why would Burke be telling Treliving what Gross was demanding? (Treliving was in the negotiations, not Burke)
and you said:

So I said:

When asked about Gaudreau, Burke said "the kid wants $50M over 7yrs".!

If you have reading comprehension, does not imply Burke was "telling Treliving what Gross was demanding"
Please stop now

Yes totally disrespectful to the player and his agent that the Director of Hockey Operations chooses to attend the meetings in person.

Because I don't like the way he's treated / talked about players in the past, and I don't see any reason for him to be there if this is supposed to be Treliving's team. Burke's a known loose cannon and isn't great at not offending people. He's like the Donald Trump of the NHL.

If he felt the need to be there, I think that's bad news.

Absolutely hilarious watching the new Three Amigos: Gaudreauvertime, underclassman and Alpine Fisher

Really throwing everything they can at this now - I would suggest we're very near the end
