Also worth pointing out that the Bruins were backed into a corner and could have been forced to take a weaker package, but Burke with all his bluster wouldn't play the offer sheet card. Offersheet compensation would have been a 1st, 2nd, and a 3rd I believe? Instead he gave them a 1st, 2nd, and a 1st.
Though to be fair I always thought his playing nice with Boston helped them get a sweet deal for Kaberle to make up for it a bit. Well that's what I always thought, but I just had the thought of how well did that 'awesome Kaberle trade' that Leaf fans liked to wave around at the time work out in the long run... I don't mean this post to be bashing the Leafs but ouch
