10Bure14Burrows Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 First We should ask Sedins brothers . Then go to next step Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needtogetswole Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 He will get around 3 - 3.5 but he can easily get 4+ anywhere else , I think he'll end up taking 3.25 - discount again and all because he know's it'll be difficult playing without the sedins and the guy's he's with now is a super tight knit group - I doubt he'll want to leave because of money aka ehrhoff - clearly saw how well that worked out for him. Burrows will stay - you know he loves VANCOUVER!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 He could get $4-5M on the open market. So hopefully he signs for $3M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ẉolverine Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 He could get 4.25M on the open market. He'll probably sign for 3.25M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uber_pwnzor Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Isn't he like really hated around the league? This might lower his salary on the open market, but like, he's staying in Vancouver. I'd say that 3.5 sounds fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 You know, I have to wonder. I think Burr could be a player that stays with us for the duration and takes a discount every time. Sure a lot of other teams would want a player like him, but he seems like the type of guy who really appreciates the opportunity the Canucks gave him since no one else was going to give him the chance, and is going to repay them with everything he has if he can. I think for him it's really, truly about the hockey, and not the money. Not in the slightest. He deserves it, definitely, but will he push really hard for it? Maybe not. The only way I could see him moving on is if the Canucks didn't want him anymore at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dura_mater Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 3 to 4 million sounds great if the bonus comes out of Bieksa's paycheck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKes17 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Some of you guys suggesting between 3 and 3.5 million are in for a big shock. Burrows will get at least $4 million and that in itself would be a good deal. His goal total during the last 4 seasons: 2011/2012: 28 goals 2010/2011: 26 goals 2009/2010: 35 goals 2008/2009: 28 goals Players who put up that kind of goal production over that long a period are generally good for north of $5 million. The only reason he likely won't get that is A) He's a team player and will probably take a discount again and He has shown he's fairly unproductive away from the Sedin line, although he is still a great defensive forward and PK'er. If Gillis can re-sign him to a deal 4 or 5 years long at $4-4.25 million per then I'd be happy. This guy is a true Canuck and should remain one.

Guest gumballthechewy Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 What's a paycheck? Is that like a paycheque? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc_devil Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Whew! I sure got mixed up. I forgot he had one more year and though he was getting his raise this year. Meaning they'd might do something drastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnsey Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 i would be happy to sign him for $4M. He has been a great asset to the team, has heart and definitely has the dedication. Not a bad price for a player that can play on both sides of the ice and play anywhere from the top line to the 3rd. Although, for a $4M price tag top 6 role should be utilized.

406281dylan Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Next off season Burrows will ink a 4 year 3.5 mill deal/ Edler will get 5 year 4.25mill deal/Kassian might replace Higgins but if we resign Higgins he will get 2mii for 1 year/ Lapierre will ink 3 year 1.375mill deal/ tanev will get 1.375 for 2 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 If Gillis thought 4.6m was a discount for Bieksa, then you can be sure Burrows will be getting somewhere close to that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpulation Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Burr needs to stay on. He should be given a 3-4 yr deal front loaded from 5mil to 2 mil for a cap hit of 3.25 mil. honestly people, he doesn't show it when he's injured, he's a hard working player and it pains me to say it, but he is getting old for a guy in his role. I dont think he will go more then 4 more years barring an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Situation Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 If Booth is getting paid $4.25 or something like that, Burrows would deserve something comparable. Booth is such an overpaid bum, he should give some of his salary to Burrows who deserves it much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
