I'm not feeling so hot tonight so this will be short and sweet: why do you think Brian Burke has never fired a coach? Frankly, I find this baffling - to have been working as a GM for so long in the NHL, yet never having fired a coach? What does this mean for Ron Wilson? I think Wilson's getting another pass this year - Burke clearly still doesn't have the team he wants (or else he wouldn't have considered trading Kaberle for a top 6 forward) and I think it's likely that if (when) the Leafs go on a losing streak, he's more likely to blame the roster than the coach. Discuss.
