Rangers fans it's time to celebrate....finally your team won't be only one making head scratching moves that make all other hockey fans say "what the hell was that"....Brian Burke is moving east to further drag the Maple Leafs into the depths...Habs fans must be crying tears of joy over this move...Brian Burke is the most overrated GM in the NHL.....The only solid move he made was signing Scott Niedermayer, and the only reason he did that was because Scott wanted to play with his brother and fell into Burke's lap....The Cup winning team was comprised largely of players Brian Murray brought in before he left for the Sens....He let Niedermayer and Selanne sit out much of last year while they pondered their futures and signed Matteau Schnieder to replace Niedermayer sending the Ducks into salary cap hell.....They couldn't even afford to keep their best prospect Bobby Ryan on their NHL roster because of salary cap reasons they also had to get rid of blue line mainstay Sean O'Donnell, and don't forget having to send Andy MacDonald to the Blues just to afford to bring back Niedermayer last year....Congratulations Toronto you brought in a classless(see feud with Kevin Lowe) baffoon who has only proven he can take someone elses players and piggy back a Cup win......
