AND NOW THE WAITING GAME

You know that Brian Burke is just sitting in an underground criminal headquarters at a gigantic table surrounded by other evil doers – perhaps even Satan himself – waiting, raging, plotting his revenge.

He isn’t going to let the verbal ass smashing that Kevin Lowe gave him – that Robin Brownlee was first to report we might add – go unanswered.

Lowe unquestionably has the upper hand now in this Battle royale, calling out Anaheim as a crappy hockey city, calling Burke a wannabe, and generally showing him who’s the boss. And we will give you a hint: it ain’t Tony Danza.

What will Burke do? Call a press conference for one, we bet it won’t take a “media junkie” long to voice his response. Certainly not the year it took K-Lowe to finally snap.

Maybe the Oil could arrange the two to fight during the intermission of the first Oilers-Ducks game on Pay Per View. It would certainly beat the hell out of the awesome features that they run.
