Your attitude explains why no Alberta teams made it out of the round robin at nationals last year =-o

Also Burrows thing wasn't anything super high profile. He did get the #### beat out of him one year while playing against BC though.

Quit defending this idiot, you look foolish. I've seen plenty of Canuck fans glad he's gone.

And seriously, what is Miller gonna do, tweet about how glad he is Burrows is gone?

Burrows hurts peoples feelings, but Marchand does things that could end players careers.

Also Miller could just not tweet anything.

That's silly. The reason they're losing is because they didn't get their pre-game hug from their GM.

You don't get it. It has nothing to do with his on-ice antics. There are some lines you just don't cross, and he crosses them. End of story.

Meh, Burrows is a jackass. If all that is said on the ice started making it out to the public, there wouldn't be many role models left.

That jets fan telling canucks fan they should be ashamed of themselves is a joke.

They cheered on a guy wearing their teams jersey, who played well.

I'm a Flames fan. This username was made when there were no Jets. You've used that line before when whining about me.

I stand by what I said. Mocking someone for being abused isn't banter. It's the sign of a disturbed individual. If you want to excuse it, shame on you too.

How seriously one chooses to take their hobby is ones individual choice, but anyone, playing ball hockey at any level, regardless or tournament play, or what said tournament calls it's self, is fooling themselves if they think they are playing anything other than a recreational sport.

So to the point that prompted my comment. Who gives a crap about whether it was a charity event or a "ball hockey league" where Burrow's cross checked some guy in the teeth at, because where ever it was, Burrow's was taking a rec sport so seriously that he decided he needed to cross check some amateur athlete with a day job in the face.............

Nope. We'll always hate the Canucks because their fan base has significantly more idiots and bandwagoners than any other team in the league. Look at this guy in this thread. He's telling us O'Sullivan wishes he was as Burrows, ignoring the fact that one is a great story of battling back from abuse and the other is a questionable human being, yet they both get have about the same PPG average over their career except ones was railroaded by circumstances outside of their own control and didn't get pucks bounced off him by the Sedins.

So glad this annoying little twerp is no longer on the Canucks. Even better no longer in the same division or even conference.
The gnat is insignificant.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Everything anyone wants to say about Burrows being a dirty player, a cheat, classless, slimy, a complete rat, all accurate. But I reserve my real animosity for players who deliberately try to injure other people. He isn't that. I just don't get the priorities many people have about what makes players inexcusably awful in hockey... I'd rather have awful things said to me or my hair pulled than have someone knee me in the head (James Neal) or elbow me in the face (Duncan Keith). Doesn't mean he's a nice guy or anything, it's just if you were picking one person to run out of the league, I'd get the guys who seriously hurt people first.

This just in, you can have animosity towards players who attempt to injure and those who mock child abuse at the same time.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Of course you can. Just have some sense of proportion. He's a puke, he's not Bryan Marchment or Raffi Torres or Chris Simon.
