Toronto Maple leafs what a Mickey Mouse Operation!! Firing a GM days before training camp what a joke!! It's as bad as Montreal trading Cammereli during the second period last year!!. New owners are a Real class act Hah! Toronto won't win another stanley cup with idiots at corporate level making stupid decisions like that. Leaf organization makes 4 steps forward then get new owners & move 5 stepbackwards. Hey New owners Bell & Rogers ancient Rome was not built overnight. It takes time & effort to build a winning team. Mistakes will be made but pieces were being built so don't mess things up just when your almost there. Never mind boycotting Leaf games because of the lockout, boyott leaf games because incompetent owners do not know what they are doing!! Leaf fans are the losers!!
Brain Burke is a winner & he was going to bring back Toronto to glory - cause he was dedicated & passionate for the Leaf Fans. now you just setback the clock as if Toronto fans have not suffered enough.Idiot owners did not think of the fallout of the firing - how lower management, coaches & players are going to react .Yah Yah they are professionals -but they are also human with feelings . I'm sure they are rattled by this corporate decision.Burke was best man for the job no matter how long it was going to take. He was no push over- loyal & passionate to a fault. Try to find another GM with his qualities. Brian Burke was Too strong minded for these new corporate idiots at Bell & Rogers!! Yah they want a yes man but Burke runs his own show.
Some of you will disagree with my comments but anybody with any common sense will agree you don't fire a GM days away from training camp. Another lost season. Shame on you Bell & Rogers. These corporate idiots have let Leafs fans down just when things were starting to look good. I wish Mr. Norris the best in this awfull situation replacing your mentor for the second time. What a terrible position to put a guy through-Now I know why Leas have not won stanely cup since 1967 . It's a Mickey Mouse operation just look how they've hired & fired managers & coaches since 1969. It's a joke!!
It's hard to follow a team when they make stupid decsions like they did today. Agree or disagree with Burke's record. You just don't fire a GM days befor training camp & rattle the organization at its core.Enough already I said my piece .
