Surprised the sens would want a piece of trash like Burrows. The Nucks made out like bandits on that trade!

If you knew what a good teammate and leader he was, you definitely would not say that. Burrows, along with the Sedin's, have been the kind of guys every team wants to have in their locker room, and in their community. He will be greatly missed around here.

I've seen & heard enough of his actions on the ice to make my opinions about what a classless hockey player he is. He might be a great individual off the ice but not on it. I do respect the Sedin's and everything they have meant to that organization. They have always played the game with class, can't say the same for Burrows

Definitely not a "classless" player. He's been the heart and soul of the Canucks on the ice. His teammate love him, and judging by the reaction from all the Sens players, they're very excited to have him joining their team.

He totally is classless. Look up the Patrick O'Sullivan thing and Jordin Tootoo thing. Have you ever heard of a team bashing new players coming in? I never have.

Shattenkirk to Washington. Damn they look tough to beat this year.

[AussieCanuckHockeyLover]

Burrows is a gem. Yeah he's a pain in the ass to play against but that's why he's amazing.
It's sad to see him go but the Canucks definitely won on that one.

I just saw Shattenkirk went to the Caps for two players and a 2017 and 2018 draft picks

Patrick O'Sullivan is the epitome of classless. His twitter feed says it all.

So that makes it ok then to make fun of somebody for being physically abused when you are a kid or racial slurs said to Jordin Tootoo not sure how anybody can defend this guys actions on the ice

In O'Sullivan's case, yes. The guy is just a big baby. As far as Tootoo goes, no, anything racial is terrible, and definitely crosses the line. Not sure what was said though.....

[Mapleleafs-13]

Burrows is pretty classless. Those are just two events that made it to the league and media, imagine all the other crap this guy has spewed out through his yap that hasn't been recorded or talked about. Not to mention the dirty plays and spears this guy has dished out over his career. He's just simply a weasel.

Either way, Vancouver for the win on that trade talk about getting fleeced. Even the analysts on the radio on tsn said it was a bad trade. I believe it was Craig button and can't remember the othe dudes name. But don't worry Ottawa fans, only 2 years of him left really. He's almost out to pasture soon.

[Dupes]

Whats the word on Jordan Benn?

[BigCy76]

He's best known as Jsmie's brother, that's his best asset....

[Steelnation248]

Remember when Burrows bit Bergeron? Yeah.

[kevboy555]

Remember when Burrows bit Bergeron? Yeah.

You mean when he put his fingers in Burrows mouth? Pretty sure 100% of people would have done the same thing......

[WheelSnipe]

Oh my god is this seriously happening? Burrows is a puke, everyone knows that. It's fine, those players exist. That being said I would take him on my team in a second.

[Wanz32]

Don't know about everyone else, but I sure wouldn't bite someone even if their finger was in my mouth. 

 

I'm with wheelsnipe though, the guys is an agitator out there. A guy you would love to have on your team, but hate to play against. Canucks made out like bandits on that trade, Dahlen will be good. 

[Jhui]

well it depends if the person sticking their finger in your mouth is tugging down your throat to choke you. guess we will never know
