Burkie, it has been broughten

This is what you call a beat-down:

After a year of enduring the wrath of Brian Burke, Edmonton Oilers general manager Kevin Lowe finally fired back at the Anaheim Ducks’ executive on Friday.

In a candid interview with Edmonton’s Team 1260, Lowe - who stayed relatively quiet each time Burke went after him over the last 12 months - finally let it all out.

“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.”

Unprofessional? Maybe. 10 kinds of awesome? Definitely.

Read the whole thing.

    I used to be utterly ambivalent about the Ducks, Krankor, but thanks to you and your ultra-subliminal messages, I am developing a mild hate for them.

    Thank you.

    Yes, my subtlety has been known to sway the uncommitted. If I can convert even one disinterested party into hating the Anaheim Mighty Scented Douches, then it will all have been worth it.
