Burrows can be a whatever he wants on a different team. He's regressing. He's not good on any line (playing with Bo has got him some points, but I would get points playing with Bo). The guy is garbage. Let go of the old team, embrace the new direction.

I'm not suggesting we "hold onto the past" by resigning him, I honestly think as a 4th liner and a PKer he will work fine for next year when we are still not expected to be competitive, he teaches good work ethic, and if he's willing to be traded once he will be again next year if he has any value left.

That's fine. I'm suggesting we move on from old core. I'm also suggesting he already doesn't have much value if any, thinking he will have more next year seems kind of silly for that reason. I'd rather see a young guy making mistakes than an old one, Burrows has lost a few steps to say the least. "good work ethic" is very important, but so is showing your players that if they don't play enough, they're out the door.

I have always said we suck...I have been telling anyone that would listen that our vets are straight garbage and have no trade value. Get your posters right Frog

What do you disagree with? Don't think Burrows would be a good 900k 4th liner and role model?
- NorthNuck

I think Burrows would be an adequate 4th liner but we need to move on. The team needs a major culture change. Labatte was the most exciting player against SJ. That is pathetic.

Donna is a two-faced rat, and I'm ahead of him in the hockey pool
- LeftCoaster

While I will acknowledge that I am two faced please don't get used to being ahead of me. You are extremely fragile and I fear you may not be able to handle anymore disappointments.

But not surprising...this team and it's fans are so starved for a little toughness on this roster it's sick. Really want to see Labatt-Tree-Guddy out there roaming around cracking heads. Not only do we need the Country Club culture change we need it in the toughness dept. as well.

Wow, you really covered a lot of ground in terms of bigotry here. Please, go on and generalize about some more ethnicities. Do First Nations next. On second thought, maybe lets all just talk about hockey on the hockey message board.
- neem55

First Nations... they got screwed over.

Who else is there?

what bigotry? you're full of crap about the bigotry... nothing bigoted about what I said. you can google polling from those areas of the world and find out for yourself...

Yes, that's all it takes. I enjoy physical, intense hockey. He is the only one that provides physicality outside of Gundbranson, Dorsett and Tryamkin.

A lot of it is on AV I would agree a bit...but we had dominant teams for a few years there under AV and we should have found a way around the lack of toughness...but didn't.

I agree, he isn't very good at hockey. But who cares? We are crashing towards the bottom of the standings so why not have a young, physical hockey player out there creating havoc? Why are you opposed to this idea?

I think that is code for Benning saying I can't trade these players.
