Burke stays in Anaheim

The Anaheim Ducks announced today that Executive Vice President/General Manager Brian Burke will remain with the team through at least the 2008-09 season, which is the last under his current four-year contract. Negotiations between the club and Burke on a contract extension will continue.

"I work for the best owners in sports," said Burke. "After meeting with Mike (Chief Executive Officer Michael Schulman) this morning, we've decided to end all unnecessary media speculation and commit to working together for at least one more year while continuing to discuss my long-term future with the Ducks."
So much for that. Toronto's search continues with the next candidate (presuming his team's out of the playoffs).

Burke will be speaking to the media in about an hour.
