Has he ever gotten in trouble for this? It is technically against the rules

I don't know how he didn't get an instigator and a fighting major for that either. Kessel didn't even take his gloves off and Burrows was punching and pulling his hair. Isn't it against the rules to instigate a fight as well when your wearing a shield. I really don't understand how more wasn't made of this. I realize in the end Kessel was fine, but don't you have to punish the intent to injure?

he also "forgot" to take off his helmet; between the visor, mouthguard, and helmet, pretty much all that was available to kessel was to try to disrupt the air that burrows was breathing.

Jeff Paterson ‏@patersonjeff Torts on radio says #Canucks Burrows has sprained hand from Kessel fight. Hopes to have him ready for practice on 19th

Must have tugged on Kessel's hair too hard

I love how animated he is about it.

It was right after Burrows ran away from fighting Iggy as they're sitting in the penalty box.

It's definitely...

Is there even one player or coach out there that respects Burrows?

I honestly wouldn't put it past Torts to have him sit a couple games for hair pulling and tell the media that it's an injury. Torts doesn't accept bs like that.

Maybe add Bob Hartley to the list. I think it's a French Canadian thing. Quebec has traditionally produced guys like Burrows.
