Suspending or banning a poster for nothing, would be an abuse of admin power, this is more of a quirk. I am sorry that it pains so many of you though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xRussianrocket Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 This thread has deteriorated and out of control? Hell the guy was traded 2 years ago now he is retired. Time to let this memorial for Alex actually die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Reminiscing... **I believe this pic is from Game 7 with Lu - Post Dragon Slaying Here's one from Ottawa... let's not forget, with Burrows healthy, the Sens were up 2-1 on the Penguins in the 2017 East Final. Had he not got injured, Sens woulda beat the Pens and won the cup that year. It's a real shame he never got his cup officially, but in my books, Alex has 2 cups... 2011 and 2017. Burrows was the heart and soul of that team... Crosby is lucky he got injured and couldn't close out the series.

This poor forum is being mismanaged. Likely because it went from being about Tryamkin to a mud slinging thread. That typically results in a thread being locked. There's no reason to lock this thread at all. Although I'm a huge Burrows fan, with his retirement (plus the Sedins) and having no involvement with this team, the thread should be unpinned. It's time to move on to a new era just as the team has moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan since 82 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Went to see Fly Over Canada yesterday and Burrows was the only Canuck featured in the intro video. I found it wierd that it was him and not one of the Sedins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slegr Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I'm kind of hoping we can turn this irrelevant Burrows thread into a Tryamkin thread, given I enjoyed reading and contributing to that thread in the prospects subforum and it's now locked while this one is endlessly pinned. What do people think of Tryamkin's return date? Will he play out all three years of that KHL contract? Or will he buy out the last year and return in 2019/20? And did you notice that he has been assigned the captaincy on his team this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was his story again of how he got here and how dedicated he was to this organization? What significant moments jump out at you in a dragon slaying way? Burr faced SO much adversity but never did it scare him away.

And I don’t want this thread closed. But I would suggest that having this thread remain pinned and seeing it at the top of Canucks talk every day has made what was once a fun thread into an albatross. Perhaps what this site needs is a Canucks alumni forum, with threads on guys like Burrows, Linden, the Sedins, etc? As for Tryamkin, he is still an exciting, young prospect who could become something great for the Canucks. Where are we supposed to currently talk about him, if not in the prospects forum (where his thread has been locked)?

Don't really understand why pinned is an issue for some, as it's a bit of a unique thread...a classic and a one off that is easily ignored. I just can't be the one to do it when it does go..... #worstmodever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
