Poor Chris, another season in the crapper with uncertainty looming.  Leafs just fired Burke before shorten season starts....ouch!!

Rumours are that Burke kept changing offer for Luongo which made Leaf's hierarchy nervous that deal would not get done to get a valid starting goalie. If that's true then Canucks can ask for the world now from the Leafs!

Guess the Laughs have adopted the Canucks blue print. Hire Burke, Burke hires Nonis, Burke's fired, Laughs appoint Dave Nonis as the next saviour. The next move will be Nonis reacquiring Roberto Luongo

I'd hate to be responsible for that train wreck.

The Leaves have 3 advisors in Cliff Fletcher, Brian Burke and yourself. They need players with talent not advisors.  ;)

Can't wait to blame all those Canucks Fans(backseat GMs) that wanted Lou out and Schneids in! If Cory tanks than you guys have no one to blame but yourselves, Lou was a better than average goalie but yet again he wasn't good enough for Vancouver.
