Brian Burke is a bum. People seem to forget when he was in charge of the Leafs. I saw him twice in real life since then called him a bum both times. I think the second time he remembered the first "bum" I threw at him. Same with Phaneuf.
Was lucky enough to play Rec hockey with Brian when he was is Vancouver. One of the greatest guys I have ever met. Tough, smart, funny and all heart. We all would just sit around, having a cold one, and listen to him tell stories. They were always epic! Your series captures the same tone. Well done!
Any old NHL story that can be shared is gold. Some probably shouldn’t be shared but it’s awesome they are. People really don’t know how much like normal dudes these guys are. They’re so down to earth compared to other pro athletes.
what about ryan shurke he played for 37 years in the fphl from the age of 16 to 53 never missed a game the fphl is below the sphl which is below the echl which is below the ahl junior b players can play in the fphl even guys who could never make junior c or any junior have played in the fphl briefly tho the fphl pays players 500$ a month . ryan shurke was black balled by the europe sphl echl ahl and nhl he couldve made the nhl he was one of the best players every in his prime in only 56 gaMES he had 322 goals 136 assists the second highest scorer in the league wasnt even in the triple digits ryna shurke couldve made the nhl ... crosby played in the fphl durning the 2013 lockout and he only had 120 points in 36 games ryan shurke is better than crosby
It's crazy how humble he is despite his achievements. Even stating, "I don't belong on the ice with Wayne Gretzky" just to let his Gretz and his son have a moment. To think we almost had him in Vancouver right around the time I was born..
atleast be fair u may not like it but tons of people do its not low quality for what its ment to be it isnt horrible it isnt great u dont like it thats all learn how judge things without being biased
Outstanding stories! I’m looking forward to hearing more stories from Burkie. My favourite story was if Burkie going to play in Springfield. Hilarious!!!!
prove it fake views buy a few million fake veiws and maybe they will make more seasons show support its not hard to google youtube views for sale than buy like 5 million
I was at that Springfield game where they said they called up Burke from Providence. Next thing he was at Maine. I had no idea what was going on in the dressing room that year.
Now he knows what it feels like to get lapped after doing it to all the other drivers for the last x8 years! We now realized that you can be a fantastic driver, but in order to be GOAT you need the best car. I have yet to see if all the victories he had over the years is because he is miles ahead of everyone else or just lucky to be sitting in a car that was just so good that not being on the podium was a shame! I don’t know about you, but I’m enjoying to see him finally having to show that he is above everyone else but winning with a car that his not the best!
I just came across this channel and might be redundant, but please alert me to any episode with Brian Burke v Toronto Sun columnist Steve Simmons. I happened to be watching the Burke exit interview from the Leafs when he said the best part of losing the job meant he never had to talk to Simmons again. That was a great line delivered to a guy who lacks scruples, in my opinion. Simmons' constant referencing to Burke's drinking habits seemed to me broke a code. No doubt many columnists have a ton of stories to tell about a general manager drinking in a bar, but they don't share them. Judge the guy by his record, not his non-criminal lifestyle.
Best Canadian television production since Trailer Park Boys. The bar isn't that high, to be fair. I mean, the Mount Rushmore of Canadian tube is pretty forgetable after TPB, The Beachcombers, Hey Burkie, and Mr. Dressup. 20 Minute Workout was pretty hawt tho.
There's video of guy Leflore smoking on the bench in the forum. He puts his head below the boards and you see smoke coming up. My doctor used to smoke in the exam room when I was young. And I was born in 77. Different times.
What an absolute amazing dude Gretzky is. Oilers you guys were lucky to have him and so was the nhl. I'm glad he won 4 cups with the oilers. Potlington was money hungry.
Kirk McClean Craig Adams Jason Herter (1 nhl game) Petr Nedved Alek Stojanov (107 games, 2 goals) And 25 Mill Obviously EDM could have picked different players but thats what Vancouver would have lost.
“No one had ever been suspended for a Stanley Cup Final since Rocket Richard”. Excuse me? The NHL suspended Ed Hospodar for the ENTIRE Stanley Cup final - 7 games - for having the gall to touch a Montreal Canadiens player - the same POS Claude Lemieux in 1987. All because the classless Habs wanted to disrespect the opponent’s net pregame, and the NHL babied them
Say what you want about him, HE was a players guy. He always and I mean always stuck up for his own. Did I agree with everything he said and did ? nope but HE always had his players back and always tried to give his teams the best chance to win. Didnt always work but at least he always tried.
"Hey Burkie" was one of the best ideas Sportsnet ever had.
Brian Burke is a bum. People seem to forget when he was in charge of the Leafs. I saw him twice in real life since then called him a bum both times. I think the second time he remembered the first "bum" I threw at him. Same with Phaneuf.
THE. For sure 😂
@@Gaetano.94 50 years no cup, you're a bum.
Im sure hes incredibly stressed what a actual bum thinks if him lmao
Love it!
This series was fantastic. I really hope they continue with it for another season.
Not me . I see him as a low rent version of Pat Quinn :)
@@ziffification good thing nobody cares what you think
@@Ohio_Isnt_Real Same goes for you on this egalitarian platform called TH-cam.
@@ziffification I don't care about what either of you think equally 😉
@@IhaveaDoghouse What did you think of burke (the providence Friars frat boy) ordering a 7$ coffee, that is not a hockey guy.
The Steve Dangle screaming image at 4:21 is solid. Truly you can hear that picture.
That dial-up sound Burkie mimicked was something else !! 👍👍
Was lucky enough to play Rec hockey with Brian when he was is Vancouver. One of the greatest guys I have ever met. Tough, smart, funny and all heart. We all would just sit around, having a cold one, and listen to him tell stories. They were always epic! Your series captures the same tone. Well done!
17:14 Burkie's modem noise, an absolute classic. I'd clip that if I could, thank you for that
It made me laugh
I miss these. Glad I can still go back to on TH-cam
Burkie your book is awesome, this is my favorite sports thing. Well done!
Brian Burke is easily one of the greatest hockey raconteur’s of all time. Love hearing his stories.
I'm running out of questions here, kid! Hahahaa love it
Kills me every time
I love this series, and am hoping for more stellar entries this coming year!
Hey Sportsnet we need more Hey Burkie!! Love the stories

These are really great stories and cartoons.
They need to bring this back like seriously, Fn hilarious

Hey Burkie, you've got a great smile 🤣🤣🥸 Keep up the great work Marek 👍🏼 Happy New Year everyone
We need more of these.
This is a terrific series.
atleast be fair u may not like it but tons of people do its not low quality for what its ment to be it isnt horrible it isnt great u dont like it thats all learn how judge things without being biased
@@jasonanderson5034 Uh, I'm afraid you've got the wrong guy. Re-read the five-word sentence.
Outstanding stories! I’m looking forward to hearing more stories from Burkie. My favourite story was if Burkie going to play in Springfield. Hilarious!!!!
48 minutes? Yes im totally ready for that!
john cena vs orange juice who is getting drunk in 4 minutes

Big fan of the Hey Burkie series! Thanks for putting them all together and great to see Burkie in person!
I’m really looking forward to season 2.
prove it fake views buy a few million fake veiws and maybe they will make more seasons show support its not hard to google youtube views for sale than buy like 5 million
Just the image of Uncle Lou having a Ref in a headlock is classic!
Players safety episode is still my all time favorite
Great stuff... Need more!!
Fantastic!!!

Thanks Burkie...great stories and our technology was way ahead of its time...LOL!!!
I love these stories. Hope you guys do more in the future🙌
unreal! this is amazing content we need more!
This is the first ever 40+ minute TH-cam video I've ever watched that didn't feel like a drag.
I was at that Springfield game where they said they called up Burke from Providence. Next thing he was at Maine. I had no idea what was going on in the dressing room that year.
Please keep this coming
+1 for the Larnell Lewis cameo!
I need that book!
Very Nice ⭐
Great content.
The man does know how to tell a story and the other guy is pretty perfect at shaping it
What an awesome series. Brian is such a nice guy 🙂
Please more Burkie episodes.

If you run into Brian Burke at least twice, he’s drafting you.
Very very cool 😎
Thumbnail made me thing this was a King of the Hill episode. Would still like to hear about those 50 men!
@36:55 What are we gonna do ? We're gonna watch ! Welcome to hockey Gary 🤣
This is simply addicting! Amazing stories!
i was just binging them last night to help me fall asleep…
42:10 They're gonna have a Season 2!!! Awesome!!!
25:11 haha "its worse than the Kennedy assassination!!" Still makes me howl
Awesome
Holly Hell this is the most productive thing Brian Burke has ever done. Must have been someone else's idea.

Was this filmed on an iPhone 4

first time seeing this. these are great. thnx for posting.
when is season 2 ?
Happy New Year to Hockey Fans worldwide!
Still waiting for the Disney+ series of "Hey Burkie!"
Kirk McClean
Craig Adams
Jason Herter (1 nhl game)
Petr Nedved
Alek Stojanov (107 games, 2 goals)
And 25 Mill
Obviously EDM could have picked different players but thats what Vancouver would have lost.
1:38 clearly cut out something I wonder what Marek said to piss him off 😂
Was Kevin Spacey the fan at 4:55 ?
18:24 prescient prediction of canadas future lol
More Burkie
I knew Burkie was gonna finish out the contract/series for these!
This is genius.
The kevin Lowe and Burke conflict was funny
Hahaha gonna let em fight
Hey Burke tell some funny Peter Zezel stories.
Where is the one with Jagr?
Fab
5:55 hey now
Unreal stories
Haha...there is no such thing as a 55 Chevy Impala. The graphic is correct as 58 was the first year of the Impala and that is what is shown.
Hey burkie!
I'd pay to watch that Kevin Lowe fight

Ask Brian Burke about Peter Zezel
If Gretz doesn’t go to LA no Dallas, Carolina, Preds, Panther, Tampa, etc. So it worked out
I don’t remember the 15 million in the Gretzky deal , pretty sure it was players and only one million for peters bank account
no it was 15m Kings owner may have stolen the money or something, but he paid 15
Say what you want about him, HE was a players guy. He always and I mean always stuck up for his own. Did I agree with everything he said and did ? nope but HE always had his players back and always tried to give his teams the best chance to win. Didnt always work but at least he always tried.
