Not your fault. Some arseholes in the media decided it was go time - I read the same things as you. They should be the ones to answer.


They're a bunch of jerks. Who does that? I feel horrible for Burns and his family, as if they need this nonsense right now. Unbelievable.

Don't blame the media, blame Cliff Fletcher:

Earlier in the day, Leafs adviser Cliff Fletcher told reporters at Leafs’ training camp that the seriously ill Burns had died.

A few hours later, he issued a written apology:

“I extend my deepest apologies to Pat Burns and his family,” Fletcher said.

“Unfortunately, I was misinformed by a friend earlier today and my public comments were completely inaccurate.

“Myself, and the entire hockey community I’m sure, will continue to wish all the best for Pat and we will keep him in our thoughts.”

The Silver Fox caused all of this (or his friend at least).

Burnsie should plant a "Cliff Fletcher passed away" rumour.
