kilgore 5,043 Posted December 15, 2018 We still need you Burrows. Or at least a player who plays like you did. Can't wait until he returns to the team as an assistant coach! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Where's Wellwood 3,804 Posted February 10 I was perusing the AHL website and noticed that Laval plays Utica on February 13th. The season series is 3-2 for Utica so far with 3 games left to play. I wonder how Burrows feels about playing the Canucks farm team and seeing those familiar colours Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gizmo2337 903 Posted May 22 I sure miss *this* move! I'd love to see some of our younger guys try it. Watch a bit of video, execute, and learn how to sell it. The best part is, sometimes he faked the fake and just went forehand. Nothing fancy, just 2 well practiced moves. 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

higgyfan 5,444 Posted June 21 Last night, at a season ticket member-only event held at Rogers Arena, Burrows was on stage with the Sedins. He was introduced by the play-by-play voice of the Canucks, John Shorthouse, and was met with a standing ovation. Burrows is in Vancouver for the draft, as a coach for the Montreal Canadiens’ affiliate, the Laval Rocket, but something tells me there’s something more brewing here. Burrows was instrumental in the Canucks’ Stanley Cup run in 2011, scoring key overtime goals against the Chicago Blackhawks and Boston Bruins, tallying nine goals total in those playoffs.

Boudrias 5,427 Posted June 22 Canuck fans can never thank Alex Burrows enough for his thrilling games and what he did off the ice in the community. The ROH is a deserved start. That ceremony will be a tear jerker for sure. Very rare player who never quit and made his team mates better. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilgore 5,043 Posted June 23 Where's clutch now? Is he still here under another handle? Even he(?) must be astonished that when he started this thread, Burrows was still a third line shut down grinder trying to simply keep that job. And even though the vast majority of CDCers disagreed with clutch about his value and what they saw on the ice, how hard he worked even back them, willing to do whatever the coach asked of him etc...who would have guessed that he'd go from where he was at the beginning of the thread to the end(?) with now Alex headed to the Ring of Honour! Quite the turn of the thread. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmfaminoff 402 Posted June 23 (edited) I remember watching a practice in Dallas years ago. Burr was the first on the ice and the last off. For most of the practice he worked doing one-on-one skills with the goalie. I was highly impressed at his work ethic.
