He wasn't the greatest coach in NHL history by any means but the way he has been treated throughout this debacle with the NHL and Balsillie is a joke. He deserved better than he got and both sides should be embarrassed about how they treated him.

Really??? Look at the second contract that Nash or Bergeron received. Those did just as much to inflate the price as anything the Penner signing did. All Burke had to do was qualify Penner and he wouldn't have lost him. Instead he chose to go the road where he hoped he could low ball Penner on a longer term deal and got bit in the ass trying it.

Present Day Burke should be assured though that if the signing doesn't work he can always get promoted like Lowe did.
