Burke stands behind Wilson

[puckhead]

Burke says Wilson is safe despite Leafs' recent poor play

I guess time will tell if Burke was thrusting at the same time.

I think Wilson is safe because he was Burke's choice and we all know the ego on Burkie...

/You mean there won't be a parade down Yonge Street in June 2011?

"Did Ron play poorly last night? No. Why don't you guys focus on the players who played poorly last night instead of questioning the coach,"

No, but he did put Kessel, Bozak, and Versteeg together and call them the first line...

I'm waiting for the Selanne to Toronto rumors to heat up.

This is what he has to work with, you say?

Hmm...I guess the blame just might be with...

He's too clutch...

That's why Burkie loves him.

Phil Kessel is a good player, but if the Leafs give up another lottery selection to the B's (and it certainly looks like they will), it's bad asset management.

So really, how many games before Ron gets canned? Honestly it only happens when it gets talked about. This case will be no different unless there is a big turnaround.

Jiggy and 'The Monster' will steal enough games for the Leafs this season to save Wilson's job. I honestly believe he is safe for this entire season.

Who will be fired first Brent Sutter or Scott Gordon?

I think Brent Sutter is safer than Darryl Sutter with Jay Feaster on board as assistant GM, thus I would go with Scott Gordon. However, if the Sabres fire Lindy Ruff, I wouldn't be surprised if the Flames make a move to bring Lindy on board.

I guess Burkie doesn't fire people midseason(God, I'd like to buy him for what he is worth and sell him for what he thinks he's worth), but if one team would put the heat on, it be the Leafs.

OT: Cowboys Fired Wade, lol

So who takes his place Jason Garrett. I mean the entire coaching staff needs to go. The Cowboys are a joke right now. The Giants are licking their chops.

Didn't Jerry just say his job was safe?!

That's how these things work. GM's/owners say coaches are safe to buy some time...

Yes, but Jerry is still the coach and GM of the Cowboys

This shall be repped in the near future!

Of course Burke has RWil's back. The losses are the players fault. If the Leafs would just play Wilson's system, they'd be undefeated.

Hahahahahahahaha, Quoted for Truth. If any of your teams have ever had Ron Wilson as a coach.....or if any of you hockey nuts read his pressers, you'd love this sooooo much!
