Previous quotes by Burke about Lowe:
On Lowe's decision to give Penner an offer sheet without giving Burke a heads up: "I think it's an act of desperation by a general manager who is fighting to keep his job." "I thought that was gutless."
Previous quotes by Lowe about Burke:
"Where do I begin?," started Lowe. "He's a moron, first of all. Secondly, he really believes that any news for the NHL is good news. Thirdly, he loves the limelight and I don't think anyone in hockey will dispute that. Lastly, he's in a pathetic hockey market where they can't get on any page of the newspaper let alone the front page of the sports, so any of this stuff carries on."
