Completely overblown, much like everything Burrows does. Reminds me of the uproar over Tkachuk's antics.

Once a Canuck, always a Canuck. Kesler-Cooke-Burrows was one of their lines. Think about the history and reputation of those players.

Yea the past instances of hair pulling, biting, and mocking child and substance abuse were totally over-blown.

Excellent call.

Should be 12, I'm guessing it's 6. Pretty bad that the refs didn't call a penalty when he first went after Hall though, crosschecking, interference, take your pick.

Edit: My bad, it was a delayed penalty already.

It seems like that at least once per season, there is some crazy and ridiculous #### like this that a player does and gets away with either no or meaningless discipline.

They need to start throwing the book t this nonsense.

Gutless piece of crap. 25 games min. and Ottawa misses the playoffs for the next 10 years for trading for him.

In person hearing incoming, he's gone for 10, to compare this crap to what Tkachuk does is embarrassing. A tap to the calf is the same as kneeing someone in the head in what world?

Burrows has about as much class as a toothless truckstop whore.

Sometimes I felt bad for Ottawa this year, traded their center who didn't want to be there in a trade that didn't work out (yet), toiling away with elite talent like Karlsson, other players can't waiting to get out of there, in part because of owner issues. Then I remember that Dorion traded for that rat#### peice of garbage and I can't help but feel they deserve much much worse.

I mean, it's not like he's an even okay hockey player. He's on pace for 12 points and comes with a 2.5M cap hit...they gave up a past 2nd round pick for. I hope Karlsson leaves the first chance he has.

Nothing dangerous about his skate blade chopping upward toward the ref while kneeing Hall on the ice. I bet his own mother thinks he's a dirtbag.
