04:34 PM ET 02.21 | The Anaheim Ducks have hired former general manager Brian Burke as a part-time professional scout, according to an announcement by general manager Bryan Murray on Thursday morning. Burke had previously been the vice president and general manager of the team from 2005-08. During that time they won their only Stanley Cup championship in franchise history. Bruke stepped down from the position in 2008, in order to take over as the Toronto Maple Leafs general manager. He held that role until 2013 when he was fired.

Are they Ducks going to let him speak freely to the media? Or, are they going to duct tape his beak?
Please ... let him speak!

You'd think the "Anaheim Ducks Team Site" would know that their GM was Bob Murray not Bryan.
Of course they could always claim it's the Burkie Effect already kicking in.
Canuck eh?

I picture Burke sitting in the seats singing "Everybody Hurts" by REM or "I'll Never Get Over You Getting Over Me" by Expose...

Heyyyyy good for him! Maybe he can advise them on how to completely mortgage their future for magic beans, sign $8 million/season worth of 2 defencemen who aren't even good enough to be dressed regularly (or at all) for their team's games, lie to your fanbase repeatedly (nevermind, no fanbase to alienate down in Anaheim), keep an unqualified, unliked coach around for way past his expiry date, and above all, be viewed as the toxic venomous serpent that you are once the smart ownership finally shows up and get your fat drunk ass fired days before the season starts!
He's all yours again, Cali.

I feel sorry for Bruce. He doesn't need help from the Irked one.

From President & General Manager to part-time scout, oh my, how the self-proclaimed mighty have fallen. But more importantly, agreed, REM is better, much better!
