burke likes the forwards in the draft, but clearly would pick ekblad if he was available

Doesnt sound like Burke isnt interested in Draisatl, he mentioned him before Ritchie and Dal Colle as a guy with "size and grit"

Specifically mentioned Reinhart, Bennett, Draisaitl, and Ritchie when talking about the forward groups available at 4 or 5.

More praise for Hartley. Probably should get votes for coach of the year according to Burke.

Burke is right about how we didn't get a call on Byron getting repeatedly punched to the face. There should have been at least a 4 on 4 for 2 minutes, and then they'd have a powerplay for 3 minutes.

Is happy Hartley was arguing for a call, he was just being a coach.

I LOVE Burke. Fricking awesome. I agree with him on almost everything and he seems like the perfect guy to run this rebuild. Very blunt, confident and knows what he is talking about

Yeah, specifically mentioned Draisaitl as someone with size and skill. Mentioning Reinhart, Bennett and him. So who knows.
