New Toronto Maple Leafs GM Brian Burke went off on Dany Heatley after finding out that Dany requested a trade out of Ottawa by going to the media first...
"He's a good player but I have certain guidelines on how players ask for trades."
...
"When you have players come ask you for a trade, I tell the players 'don't finish that sentence,' because once you ask, I'm going to move you," Burke stated. "If a player wants out, you're darn right I'm going to move you. I'm not kissing anyone's ass to play in my town, so to hell with you, don't finish the sentence. My second rule is if I hear about this, you're not going anywhere."
"For a player to pop off and say he wants out or leak it (to the media), in my mind you are now no longer interested in your team. If you've done that you've handicapped them, you've handcuffed your GM."
Choice words, Burkie
