Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by Brian Burke for a conversation on the future of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Burke shares his thoughts on Auston Matthews and why he believes the Leafs captain still wants to stay in Toronto.

Burke explains why he would aggressively shop the pick, citing the lack of a clear-cut top prospect in this year's draft, before telling the legendary story of how he landed both Sedin twins in Vancouver, while giving credit to Marc Crawford and Thomas Gradin. Additionally, Burke discusses Craig Berube's future behind the Leafs bench, outlines his biggest offseason priorities for the organization, and reveals that if Toronto ultimately keeps the top pick, he believes the selection should be Gavin McKenna.
Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill dive into the uncertainty surrounding Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube and superstar Auston Matthews, while discussing the news of Shane Doan mutually parting ways with the organization.

Tee Time For Pittsburgh 05/06/26 The Pittsburgh Penguins' 2025-26 campaign has come to an end. Eliminated in an overtime, Game 6 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, the Pens overachieved and bowed out early. No harm, no foul. We all got extra hockey, the organization generated some playoff revenue from tickets, concessions, and merch, and after a slow start, we were all treated to some thrilling hockey in Games three through six. Jeff and Jordan recap the season that was, discussing - among other things - Evgeni Malkin's future with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Tuesday, May 5, 2026 could be one of the most important dates in Vancouver Canucks history...if the Canucks happen to emerge with the first-overall pick. In today's show, I preview the draft lottery by explaining the difference between winning the lottery and winning the first overall pick. I also revisit the 1999 draft when Brian Burke emerged with both Sedins. Then I make way for the viewers with some Open Mic time.

Game Six: Balboa Penguins Force Philly Return 04/29/26 No one saw any of this coming, so each shift we behold - with Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang together in the Stanley Cup Playoffs - is a gift to Penguins fans around the world. And yet we find ourselves riveted by the drama, as number eighty-seven and his scrappy, resilient team pushes through the reedy swamp of the most unlikely of comebacks. The Flyers, after jumping out to a three games to none lead, have stumbled while the Pens have surged. Former Calder Cup MVP and Penguins net minder Arturs Silovs stood tall in games four and five, and heretofore absent elements to the Penguins' postseason game: Depth scoring, Superstars getting going, just to name a couple, have arrived at either just the right moment …or a little bit too late. Either way, we're being treated to a classic. A Keystone State Battle to write home about. Tonight the Penguins visit Philadelphia for what will either be their storybook season's final tilt or, as some die-hard Penguins fans assert and hope: one more salvo in the name of a reverse sweep. Make no mistake: The Flyers faithful are sweating this game. Enjoy the podcast - Jeff and Jordan are back with you for some spirited Penguins hockey talk. Also, special thanks to Hunter and Jacob, a couple of newly minted hockey fans who came in through the ‘Heated Rivalry' side-entrance. Jeff met them at a local coffee shop, spotting them in some crisp, new Rakell / Crosby jerseys and simply had to ask them for a quick chat.

“X” Men 04/12/26 The Pittsburgh Penguins are going back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs!! Needless to say, Jordan and Jeff are beside themselves with unadulterated joy, personified by the sign-offs you'll hear at the conclusion of today's episode. Sidney, Kris, Evgeni, Erik, Bryan, and Ben all sat and rested their weary bones for yesterday's 6-3 loss to Ovechkin and the visiting Washington Capitals, but the big boys will PLAY today as the Caps make their final regular season home-ice appearance. That's clunky writing folks, but it's Sunday afternoon and admin is heading to their part-time job.

Brian Burke, CEO of Praxis Capital and author of The Hands-Off Investor, joins the show to break down the current state of real estate investing and why he believes multifamily is still too early to touch. We discuss: - Why the multifamily market looks like a “traffic collision” right now - The biggest mistake investors make trying to time the bottom - Why senior housing may be the most overlooked opportunity today - The real impact of AI on real estate (and jobs) - Why tax benefits should NEVER be your primary investment thesis If you're an LP or GP trying to navigate today's uncertain market, this episode will help you think more strategically about timing, risk, and where the real opportunities are emerging next.

Florida Men 04/02/26 Nothing says ice hockey like FLORIDA, as for the past two NHL seasons no hockey club has been more successful than the FLORIDA Panthers. And if it's Florida hockey yinz want, then you're in luck - the Penguins tonight kick off a three-game stint versus the Lightning and Panthers. Tonight's game versus the Bolts will be played in Tampa, with the Cats curling up in Pittsburgh for a back-to-back residency at PPG Paints Arena on Saturday and Sunday. The Tampa team looks pretty darned dangerous and it's never wise to count out a reigning Stanley Cup champ, regardless of (the Panthers' mounting) ongoing injuries. Here's a link to Luke Temple's "Florida," a favorite song of mine. - Jeff Taylorhttps://music.apple.com/us/album/florida/677360515?i=677360696 Very special thanks to Espresso A Mano, Pittsburgh's finest coffee roasters and cafe, for partnering with Fly Penguins Fly podcast.

Few investors have gotten the real estate market as right as Brian Burke. He bought heavily discounted deals after 2008, sold at the post-2020 peak, waited years to buy, and finally just made his next big move—taking down a profitable, large investment property for 50%+ off. If he's finally getting back into the market, should you, too? Brian has owned thousands of rental units across dozens of apartment complexes, bought and sold 500+ single-family homes, and seems to innately know the time to buy, the time to sell, and, as he puts it, the time to sit on the beach. Brian is seeing seller pressure start to peak across a specific type of investment property—loans are coming due, and banks are forcing owners' hands. This is the opportunity we've all been waiting for. In today's episode, Brian explains how to get in front of these deals before other investors, the sector seeing the biggest discounts (50%+ off), and what small, single-family investors should do now to capitalize on the growing opportunity everyone seems to be ignoring. Heaven in 2027 for investors? Brian's been saying it for years—looks like he's about to be proven right. In This Episode We Cover Are short sales back? How desperate sellers are giving up their properties at massive discounts How Brian scored 50%+ off on an investment property most investors overlook How to find seriously discounted properties before they reach the general public Brian's real estate prediction for 2026 and 2027 (it could get a lot better for buyers) Are syndications…dead? What Brian says to do before you passively invest money And So Much More!

Lords Of The Shootout 03/27/26 As we've been saying for YEARS, the Pittsburgh Penguins are the Lords Of The Shootout, striking fear into the hearts of any opposing team's goaltender.. etc, etc. We kid, we kid. Back-to-back shootout victories for your Pittsburgh Penguins are of course unheard of and downright unexpected - but the Steel City's flagship hockey club managed the feat nonetheless, besting ace goaler, Linus Ullmark for a massive 2-point party in the capital of Canada. As of today's posting (Fri March 27, 2026) the Penguins are in sole possession of 2nd place in the Metropolitan division. The podcast you're listening to was recorded the day before said game, on the heels of two epic home losses to the NHL's top teams, Carolina and Colorado.

Although prices on multifamily have come down from their peak more than at any other time in recent history, they still have more to go before they present a good buying opportunity. Rents have not risen, interest rates have not been lowered as anticipated, and oversupply persists in many markets. Yet prices are not reflecting these headwinds. Senior living facilities, on the other hand, are generating 8% yield year one with significant upside. Brian Burke, President and CEO of Praxis Capital, has been a multifamily operator for decades and has expanded into senior living facilities over the past year with tremendous success.

This week, Candice and Malessa sit down with Brian Burke, President and CEO of Praxis Capital and author of The Hands-Off Investor. After more than 30 years in real estate, Brian shares how he scaled from flipping single-family homes to managing over $500 million in multifamily assets, and why syndications became the key to growing while reducing day-to-day involvement. He breaks down what makes a deal trustworthy, how to evaluate sponsors, and the mindset required to invest through multiple market cycles. Plus, the hosts unpack a bold move shaking the commercial market: SL Green's $730 million office acquisition. Is this the signal that the office sector has bottomed out, or just an early bet on New York's recovery? They explore what renewed institutional confidence could mean for financing, pricing, and the future of commercial real estate.

In this powerful episode, Brad May returns for Part 2 of a raw and honest conversation about leadership, resilience, identity, and what it truly takes to win at the highest level.Brad reflects on being traded multiple times during his NHL career, adapting to new teams, and learning how to integrate into different locker rooms without disrupting culture. He shares the emotional journey of winning the Stanley Cup with the Anaheim Ducks — and why celebrating that moment with his family meant more than the trophy itself.The conversation expands beyond hockey into business leadership. Brad breaks down why coaches are “salesmen,” why clarity of vision is essential, and why delegation without interference builds trust. He unpacks the difference between playing not to lose versus playing to win — and why excuses quietly erode culture.At its core, this episode is about ownership. Ownership of performance. Ownership of mistakes. Ownership of mindset.As Brad says, there is no “try.” You either do or you don't.Episode Highlights:0:00 - Mindset over body: eliminating "try" and taking ownership0:34 - Welcome and introduction to part two of the episode1:31 - Adapting to seven different NHL teams and building new relationships6:00 - Winning the 2007 Stanley Cup with Anaheim after 16-year career7:50 - Scott Niedermeyer's perspective on being lucky to share the Cup with family11:04 - What makes a good coach: selling a system and getting buy-in13:49 - Comparing coaching styles: Mark Crawford vs Ted Nolan vs Randy Carlisle15:30 - Ted Nolan's simple advice: "Just play left wing" analogy17:31 - Randy Carlisle's relentless work ethic and pursuit of excellence21:28 - Why some players leave the game bitter and unfulfilled25:08 - Identity after hockey: from "I used to be" to "I am a hockey player"30:28 - Eliminating excuses: "You either do or you don't"33:28 - Leadership lesson from Brian Burke: delegating responsibility to coaches55:38 - Playing to win vs playing not to lose: the power of identifying your goal58:38 - The bar speech that united the team and families to win togetherKey Takeaways:Leaders must communicate crystal-clear goals (short, medium, and long term).Identity loss can derail high performers after retirement or career shifts.Playing to “not lose” creates hesitation; playing to win creates momentum.Ownership beats excuses — every time.Leaders must reflect on whether failure was execution or lack of resources.Energy, clarity, and consistency win over time.You must declare what you want — silence guarantees nothing.Resources Mentioned: The Secret (law of attraction concept)Tony Robbins – mindset principle referencedNIL (Name, Image, Likeness) era in NCAA athleticsCold plunge discipline practiceBillions (TV show reference for executive coaching concept)Notable Quotes: “Your mind is in charge. Doesn't matter what your body feels, just do it.” - Brad May“It's okay if you're not successful, but own it and learn from it and let's go. Let's keep moving.” - Brad May“The moment that a coach compromises his values, he's not the same guy and he's probably not as good.” - Brad May“A coach is just a salesman. He needs 25 guys to buy in.” - Brad May“You gotta enjoy the small wins.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“There's just some people, some leaders, who are just not having the hard enough conversations.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“You also have to have people around you that are willing to say - hey, you're being either too easy or too hard. Like you just, you have to have a team around you to help you identify as a leader.” - Dwayne KerriganGuest Bio: Brad May is a former NHL forward whose 19-year career spanned more than 1,000 regular-season games across the league. He is a Stanley Cup champion, winning with the Anaheim Ducks in 2007, and remains a recognizable figure in hockey history for his 1993 overtime playoff goal against Boston, remembered by fans as the iconic “May Day” moment.Following his retirement from professional hockey in 2010, May transitioned into broadcasting, working as an NHL analyst with CBC, Rogers Sportsnet, and AT&T SportsNet, where his candid, player-first perspective made him a natural presence on air. In 2024, May entered a new chapter off the ice, joining NFP as a Client Executive, where he works with businesses and individuals on insurance and risk management.Guest Social Links: Instagram: www.instagram.com/maydayhockey LinkedIn: ca.linkedin.com/in/brad-may-24228662Connect with Dwayne Kerrigan:FacebookInstagramLinkedInWebsiteDisclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed by guests during The Dwayne Kerrigan Podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Dwayne Kerrigan and his affiliates.

Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill break down the Toronto Maple Leafs' 4-3 shootout loss in New Jersey. The defeat extends Toronto's post-Olympic break struggles, as the Toronto Maple Leafs are now winless in five games (0-3-2). The guys discuss the team sitting Bobby McMann, Scott Laughton, and Oliver Ekman-Larsson for trade protection reasons ahead of the looming deadline, and what it could mean for the organization over the next 24–48 hours. Also, they preview the second half of the back in NYC against the Rangers.Plus, former Leafs GM Brian Burke drops by to dish on the Leafs ahead of the deadline.#LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake
Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by Brian Burke to break down the state of the Toronto Maple Leafs ahead of the NHL trade deadline. Burke weighs in on Toronto's handling of rookie Easton Cowan and explains what typically happens behind the scenes between a GM and coach during deadline week. The conversation stems from Craig Berube telling reporters there would be no “roster management” scratches—only for Bobby McMann, Scott Laughton, and Oliver Ekman-Larsson to sit out against the New Jersey Devils hours later.Burke says he's stunned the Leafs find themselves in this position—potential sellers for the first time in a decade—and admits he's puzzled by the team's lack of intensity. He places the blame squarely on the players, not Berube. Burke also outlines what his deadline strategy would be, including maximizing the return on Ekman-Larsson and potentially moving Laughton and McMann if the price isn't met.Plus, Burke weighs in on the big questions surrounding the roster—whether he'd ever consider moving Auston Matthews or William Nylander, why Matthews is a hard no, and why he'd at least listen on Nylander. He also defends Morgan Rielly, saying the market has unfairly turned on him, before giving his honest assessment on whether this Leafs team can turn things around quickly.

You Don't Say Shutout 03/03/26 Almost anything goes in ice hockey - but you never, EVER, under any circumstances …say the word ‘shutout' if your goalie hasn't let up a goal and there's still hockey left to play in the game. The Pittsburgh Penguins are on a roll coming out of the Olympic break, garnering points in the Eastern Conference standings in all of their three games since. With the Boston Bruins on the slate for tonight, let's keep rooting on the Black and Gold - the ones from Pittsburgh, now… - and BEAT BOSTON.

Matt Faircloth interviews Brian Burke, reflecting on the prolonged multifamily downturn and why 2025 failed to deliver the recovery many investors expected. Brian explains how elevated construction deliveries, negative rent growth, and mispriced cap rates have kept deal fundamentals from penciling, especially for assets acquired with high leverage. The conversation dives deep into the dangers of bridge debt, emphasizing that loan maturity risk, not floating interest rates, is what ultimately puts lenders in control. Brian also shares why he has shifted capital into assisted living, citing demographic tailwinds, improving fundamentals, and a supply-demand imbalance that contrasts sharply with multifamily.

After 600 episodes and nine years of interviewing Colorado’s most successful real estate investors, podcast host Chris Lopez shares the five most important Colorado real estate investing lessons he’s learned—lessons that fundamentally changed how he builds portfolios, navigates market cycles, and adapts investment strategy. Since launching July 7, 2017, Chris has interviewed hundreds of Colorado investors: deca-millionaires who built massive portfolios, investors who survived the 2008 crash and rebuilt stronger, and specialists in lending, insurance, and property management who understand market mechanics better than anyone. This milestone episode distills nearly a decade of accumulated Colorado real estate investing lessons into actionable insights for investors at any experience level. The biggest revelation? Real estate moves far slower than most investors anticipate. Chris shares why he called the 2022 market top correctly, sold multiple residential properties, and shifted capital into multifamily and private lending—but still underestimated how long market corrections take to play out. He reveals why “I’d rather be a day late than a day early” became his investing mantra and what Brian Burke’s quote about “time to sit on the beach” taught him about patience. Chris also addresses the Colorado-specific challenges reshaping local investing: property insurance costs now rank second-highest in the nation (behind only Florida), legislative headwinds continue reducing investor demand, and the growth wave from 2012-2023 has definitively ended. These trends require completely different strategies than what worked five years ago, making these Colorado real estate investing lessons more relevant than ever. In This Episode We Cover: Why consistency over 15-20 years beats trying to time perfect market entry How market cycles never repeat exactly—multifamily crashed while residential held in 2022-2025 The five-step framework for adapting strategy when both markets and personal life change Why looking at 50-year interest rate trends reveals patterns 10-year data misses How Chris’s portfolio strategy evolved from single investor to family man with three daughters What diversifying across asset classes and capital stack positions protected during volatility Why Colorado insurance and legislative trends now require different underwriting than 2019 Whether you started listening in 2017 or discovered the podcast recently, this episode offers perspective you can’t get anywhere else: the accumulated wisdom of 600 conversations with the people who’ve actually built wealth through Colorado real estate. Chris shares not just what worked, but what he got wrong and how he adapted—delivering Colorado real estate investing lessons that only come from nine years of interviews and real market experience.

Chris Lopez and Paul Shannon welcome investor and author Brian Burke to look back at 2025 and set the table for 2026. Brian recaps his “end the dive in 25” thesis, explains why his pivot to senior housing has outperformed, and shares what actually surprised him this year. The group digs into supply, sentiment, and rates, plus the difference between perfect and imperfect markets and why small multifamily and true needs-based real estate may offer the best risk-adjusted plays right now. Key Takeaways 2025 recap: senior housing led commercial performance while multifamily price declines slowed but did not fully reverse Surprise of the year: new construction deliveries in multifamily stayed elevated longer than expected, keeping pressure on rents and occupancy Portfolio moves: Brian co-invested in his senior housing fund, added selectively to individual stocks on pullbacks, explored biotech, and is eyeing Bitcoin on deeper dips 2026 watchlist: investor sentiment in multifamily, supply tapering, and the rate story split between short-term SOFR and the stubborn 10-year Strategy notes: in a higher-for-longer world, appreciation must come from income growth more than cap rate compression For LPs: prioritize needs-based real estate like senior housing, medical office, and data centers; consider contrarian but expert-led office plays and inefficient small-multifamily opportunities Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

Another year is nearly in the books. The 2025 housing market was largely defined by construction oversupply, sluggish rent growth, flat home prices, and widespread turbulence, with residential real estate moving far more slowly than anticipated and commercial real estate all but grinding to a halt. Yet it appears we've reached the bottom, and the silver lining is clear: real estate is still ripe with opportunity for investors who are willing to play the long game. Today, Brian Burke returns to the show to share where investors should be directing their attention in 2026. Perhaps unsurprisingly, one asset class continues to deliver for investors who are intent on building long-term wealth with real estate. And Brian believes we may be entering a period that could mirror the early 1990s, where the wisest move is to slowly accumulate these assets before the next wave of appreciation. Slower rent growth might keep otherwise great assets from paying off in year one, but those who persevere through a “season of patience” stand to be rewarded when it really counts: 5 or 10 years from now. In This Episode We Cover Forecasting new construction, home prices, and mortgage rates in 2026 Why a period mirroring the early 1990s could be followed by a 2000s-style boom The roadmap for building generational wealth with small multifamily properties Why investors should focus on asset accumulation in a “season of patience” The asset Brian believes is the biggest “bright spot” in a tough housing market The benefits and potential dangers of the controversial 50-year mortgage And So Much More!

He was right in 2000, 2008, and 2020—now he's saying it's time to buy. Brian Burke is one of the most revered minds in real estate investing. Almost nobody has done what he has—purchased over $1 billion in real estate without ever losing investor money. He played it safe, made moves 99% of investors couldn't believe (including selling 75% of his portfolio at the peak in 2022), and came out on top time and time again. Now, he's saying it's time to get back into the housing market, but for specific properties. Brian thinks now is the time to make moves and that this “stall” in pricing could last years and is a massive boon to real estate investors. Brian has historically purchased in these often-ignored lull periods, and even small deals he bought back then are now paying for his retirement and oceanfront Hawaii property. He stresses that you should buy these manageable, small, and powerful properties right now, too, so you can reach financial freedom faster like he did. What are the properties Brian says investors should be scooping up right now? We're sharing in this episode. In This Episode We Cover Why Brian believes that these “stalled” home prices could last a while The perfect rental property for small investors that will pay for your early retirement Looking for “problem” properties that have huge upside potential A repeat of the mid-1990s? Why we're following the same slow, steady trend Pay off your rentals faster! What Brian did to speed up his financial freedom timeline And So Much More!
