Brian Burke versus EA Sports NHL 2011

     I'd like to start off by saying I respect Brian Burke. He's proven in the past that he has the ability to be a good general manager and he's obviously really dedicated to hockey. That being said, he has made some boneheaded trades and signings recently that have left many people in Leafs nation scratching their heads (Lupul, Gardiner, and a pick for Beauchemin was a good deal though). Everyone with half a brain should be really pissed off over the Kessel deal, but this trade might actually be worse. In Franchise mode in 2011, this guy made the trade below. He's the Montreal Canadiens general manager. Maybe he'll have an NHL G.M. role sooner rather than later.

Which trade was worse, Phil Kessel for 2010 first round pick (2nd overall), 2010 second round pick (32nd overall), and 2011 first round pick (TBA) OR Sidney Crosby for Andrei Markov and Hal Gill
