Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer · NHL Executive Legend Brian Burke (2/27/26) · 28 Feb 2026 podcast

Oh, first off, I checked again with the NHL just while we have a chance to talk about that, Bob.

I checked again with the NHL.

They're only awarding one Stanley Cup this year.

I checked.

Can you verify that for us?

I can verify.

I check with Bill Daly.

And I look at all these trades that are going to be made and have been made already with the kind of pre-trade deadline before the Olympics.

And a number of mistakes that are made.

I've said this until I'm blue in the face.

The number of errors is legendary, and it will be growing.

Now, I think there's three categories of trades that players there, that GMs try to make.

One is to get in the playoffs.

Those are generally cheaper.

And it makes some sense.

There's a great windfall if you can make the playoffs.

Two is to win a round or be a little bit better, enough to win a round, get a little bit better, pay the right price.

Three is go for it all.

And that's where the math never works.

And that's where the biggest mistakes are made.
