As a very young, ignorant child, I thought the Sedin's were just allowed to be drafted together because they were brothers.
Me too lol
Mayan Text "POPO VUH"
i just laughed so hard at this - league should consider it
i definitely thought that twins at least were allowed to do this lol because one team in the league i grew up watching had twins two different times
Little League Brother rule!
"I'm running out of questions here kid" 🤣🤣🤣
(kraken attacks Burkie's fishing boat)
This was awesome. Would love to see more of these
there is a decent back log of them if you havent seen them. We are all hoping for many more
Too bad there’s only been two twin brothers drafted back to back ever you act like there’s 1 million of these different stories LOL
@@onthegrow8403 Not talking about the Sedin's. I'm talking about animated hockey stories.
@@predspete2625 Neither was I who says there’s more stories like this to come LOL you act like it’s going to be a regular thing
@@onthegrow8403 Why so much attitude? I complimented a video and said I'd love to see more... didn't think that would start an argument. This community is becoming toxic.
Burkie didn't know just how great a gift he was giving to the City of Vancouver and British Columbia.
bullcrap
I did not expect the soundtrack to get so damn FUNKY.
Love this series. And this story never gets old. Imagine if we never got to witness the Sedins playing together as a tandem. This whole thing that Burke pulled off is magic.
For the brothers themselves...& also us fans...it was a dream come true.
Maybe then 1 of them would have actually won a cup
Yeah Brian Burke deserves mad respect for pulling this off.
Imagine the wce, the sedins, and luongod, and rick tocchet as coach. No way they losing!
Keep this a series
This is fantastic. Burkie is a gem
Apparently not, if his decision resulted in decades of toiling in mediocrity for his own team.
Was hardly the drafting of the sedins that caused mediocrity in Vancouver. They played above their contracts during the entire time since the salary cap was imposed. Nobody they could have drafted instead that would have remotely been even anywhere near as good
Burie was always a blowhard who accomplished nothing. This guy had an excuse for everything! Getting the sedums wash his big achievement.
@@jelwy7 pro player, coach, stanley cup gm, varous executive roles, now broadcasting. "Accomlished nothing" not sure what your standards of accomplishment are, maybe you should write a book on your own accomplishments as they must be stellar
@@MichaelC-no8dx what has he ever won? This dude is the picture of arrogance. Defending the Todd Bedtuzzi assault was disgusting.
I love how you can see the other twin within the shot of their individual player cards. Definitely cannot imagine a world where the twins didn’t play together, not even just in Vancouver, but in any team. Burke’s maneouvers on this draft should be at the level of common knowledge in any sports history I’d say
Completely agree. For that move only he should be lauded. Imagine a world where they didn't play together. He did A LOT for hockey on that day.
"Running out of questions here, kid." What a great line. lol
The Sedin Twin draft was Burke's greatest moment ever and I don't care what anyone says about Brian Burke but guy is a gem!
I met Brian Burke early on when he joined the canucks. I didn't know who he was, saw the logo on his shirt and asked him about Larionov and Krutov. Gave me a 2 minute response and was very polite and engaging. He is a solid dude.
I could watch Hey Burkie's and Trade Tree's all day long...
The crowning achievement of Burke's career and one of the best draft day trades (or series of trades) in NHL history.
Imagine having the Niedermayers and luongod!
Genius maneuvering. Jim Benning could never.
I honestly don’t get critics like you. Burke just said this was the worst draft heading into it so people wanted to move picks which made it easier. In today’s game draft picks are essential to build the core of the team. Every GM has a hit an miss I’ll admit he’s not the best at signing players that handcuffed us and his trades are meh but at the time we hired benning we had nobody in our farm system to build a core around and benning was known for his scouting now we have players like petey, Hughes, podkolzin, I think juolevi could be a solid player he’s had injury issues and a solid goaltender and a future goaltender compared to what we had back then to what we have now benning deserves some credit for his draft picks. Virtanen now didn’t pan out but at the time of the drafted all the fans wanted a home grown kid and that was virtanen now that he didn’t pan out pitchforks are out for benning to be fired I’m tired of fans jumping off right away when something doesn’t pan out
@@pravleenminhas3594 100%. Most "Fans" don't realize that their constant braying about "win now" with the Sedins saddled us with the eriksson contract. We should have been rebuilding. They also soured our relationship with Linden, because that's what he wanted but got shouted down by management that were under pressure from fans.
@@Electricalphil exactly the the fans and ownership group are the worst because we can never go through a solid rebuild and hockey is the toughest to rebuild a team and you don’t know how player will do when drafting a kid that is 18 and assessing his ability to play in the future by looking at his skill set now. Look at Edmonton they have been going through a rebuild and they were gifted multiple #1 overall picks and only a couple of those panned out in our franchise history we didn’t have a single #1 overall yet I believe our future is brighter than Edmonton in the next couple of years. If the Canucks ever draft a kid and just one person doesn’t work out some canucks fan throw a fit like “we should have never drafted this guy what were they thinking”. We treated players like luongo, naslund, ohlund, Kesler like crap in their later years but whenever they make a guest appearance fans go nuts and that’s what pisses me off about “these fans”
@@Electricalphil Give me a break bud. Yes blame the fans, because they made the final decision on who the Canucks signed contracts with. He should've came out and admitted when needed retooling. Would've been hard to swallow, but if he was a good GM he wouldn't pander to the fans and do his job. It's not just Loui's contract it's also Myers, Roussel, Beagle, and Holtby & Virtanen instead Toffoli were all recent bad signing/decisions, it's not just one that's handcuffed us. He's a good scout, no doubt but that does not make him a good GM. He needs to be good at all aspects of the job not just one
@@jejsemin33 I believe virtanen was coming off a good year that year and virtanen is younger where Toffolli is older and didn’t know how much of an impact he would make. The assumption was that virtanen turned it around and toffoli was in the later years of his career obviously hindsight is 20/20 but do you honestly think benning would come out and say we need a rebuild he would’ve been fired had he said that because the owner is a tool and he’s stubborn I’m certain that he was in benning’s ear to sign these players so they could still compete clearly that’s not the case. Of course a GM is supposed to be good at all facets of the position but look at what benning started with and look at what we have now. We have a solid group that we can build around
I never thought about the logistics of how the same team was able to draft both identical twins. The Morris twins in basketball were also drafted one pick apart, but by different teams, and weren't on the same team until a trade 2 years later.
Same with Markieff and Marcus Morris in the 2011 NBA draft. Picks 13 & 14 overall.
@@justinanderson3241 that's literally what they just said lol
As a hawks fan I love this series lol.
As a pens fan same burkie is a legend and his stories just keep getting better and better
@@SD_BRFC1997 As a Wings fan you both can suck it!!
lol But no really this is a great series.
@@moappleseider1699 it’s one thing most nhl fans can agree on wether you like him or not burkie has some awesome stories
@@SD_BRFC1997 Absolutely. We need this to blow up so they keep making them.
Marc Andre fleury is a Blackhawk
You might recognise their home team/town Modo Örnsköldsvik from players like Peter Forsberg, Markus Näslund, and Victor Hedman
Season end!! Noooo. Can't wait for the next season of this
I hope Jeff and Burkie continue this amazing series. My kids love them, learning hockey history in the coolest way.
after careful consideration, I love this Hey Burkie stuff. Man is a gem.
Love how at 2:22 you can see the BROS band warming up, and then their song starts playing a bit later. Little details like this make an already excellent video even better!
I love this burkie videos, can literally watch them over and over.
Really love these, was afraid they'd stop after Burke got on with a team
The attention to detail in the animating is impressive!
I used to listen to Burkie's weekly radio appearance on Dan Russell's Sportstalk show in Vancouver in the 80's. I love listening to his stories.
This was awesome! You guys gotta do Burkie interviewing Yakupov during the draft hahah
Not only are these incredible stories and well animated, but I’ve also discovered some great new bands from the songs you guys put in. More of these please.
Priceless!
This was a great watch, Keep these going!
for the love of everything holy, keep making these!
I could listen to this story so many times
Dang! This might be the best episode of Hey Burkie! Great to hear of the legendary draft moment straight from the source!
This is some of the best content put out by Sportsnet. Please do more episodes next season!
Man I love these shorts with Birkie! keep them coming!
Also can you guys release a 15-30 min compilation of these! they are so good!
I really could watch these for HOURS!!! I'm just left wanting more. Well guess I'll rewatch all the other ones 😅.
LOVE THESE!
Love these.
Never stop making these!
Beautiful story! Top Notch!
loved these videos, hope for more!
First thing I've seen in a long time with Sportsnet attached to it that I've liked.
This is awesome. Make this a recurring series
Greatest deal 'n steal in draft night sports history.
Love these Burkie insights
Very well done production. 👍
Awesome piece~
I loved this. More please!
Perhaps the best draft the canucks have ever had
Had to watch this after reading Burke’s Law. Fantastic stuff
This was awesome. Learned some new stuff today!
These are great.. well done Burkie!
Great series. More Burkie stories please.
I'm a big fan of Trade Trees, but these Burkie videos are making a strong second place showing. Great video, excellent funk, too. More please.
The series content's good, and honestly, I quite enjoy the art style.
That was a really nice video !!!!
Thank you ❤️
Love the animation style
these are great!
Loved you book Burkie!
I love that EJ, Chuck and Kenny are with Ted Turner in the table :D
Great video.
Love this video!
I love these
Burke twisting the knife into Neil Smith and every Rangers fan a bit more when speaking of Pavel Brendl.
So Atlanta traded a Sedin for the guy who’d end up the most famous missed empty net highlight of all time lol
F in the chat for the Atlanta Thrashers logo
Love it!
Please don’t ever stop making these.
My fav is the beginning of the show when everyone says hi Burkie
Legendary
More please.
This could be the best hockey series on youtube
Amazing video crazy how the twins were drafted in Boston and lost to the bruins in the finals… game 7…
I know Burke’s with the Penguins now, but I would love another season of #heyburkie!!
Did you see who's on the 1999 Swedish World Championship team? One of the best names in hockey . . . Per Djoos!
So good these are still going on despite Burke now with the Penguins.
Man I miss these videos :(
awesome
I like the fact that Burke regrets that he said Daniel & Henrik Sedin.
But really, after all that work getting the picks, Burke can say whatever the hell he wants.
Here 23 years to the day.
That was pretty good
I like this series
Yeah great picks. All those Stanley Cup banners in the arena really back them up
Hey Burkie is SportNets best youtube bit!
Yo this song at the end is a banger
This is the best thing on CZcams
Love Burke
Not much of a reader but I really enjoyed reading his book
Well let me rephrase that i really enjoyed listening to his book
Have him do one about being on time from his book
3:47 "No expansion team has ever picked first overall."
This is the 2nd time I've heard Burkie say this. What about the Buffalo Sabres in the 1970 draft when they picked Gilbert Perreault?!
5:35 They had different people do each Sedin's voice? Or were they joking around?
Yup and the Tampa Bay Lightning also picked 1st in 1992. Clear oversight on his part.
@@kulba21 Oh, that's right!
I was there in the Fleet Center
Cool
nice video
this series kills
Really well made…..
That franchise is so good 😅
This should be on TV
So basically Ted turner was the reason Vancouver scored the twins that is awesome lol
When I was younger, I always thought Brian Burke was just a cranky old man with an ego the size of Jupiter. I now understand that he's a genius of a cranky old man with an ego the size of Jupiter that he earned by doing things like this and other amazing things. When you earn it, it's yours. 👏
3:47 wow a cameo of the Inside the NBA boys...
More Burkie stories set to this aesthetic please.
