GradinToSmyl Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Give him an A and 3.5 a year. Or 4. Or 4.5. Great player, teammate and I love watching him play. He should retire a canuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I don't "feel sorry" for him, but I definitely appreciate him. As for his salary, he is definitely worth more than 2 mil. I'd say 3.5 which would mean he's making a little more than half of what he's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieCrumbs Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I am glad you two have told us all how little you understand about the game of hockey. If you think Burrows is over rated, you've serioulsy never competed at anything, let alone hockey in your life. Laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1nf1n1ty Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Take Burrows off the first line and his 30 goals drop down to 20. GMs around the league aren't blind to who players play with. Every player that plays with the sedins end up scoring a bunch. You wanna give Lappy a raise too for his 2 hot weeks he had when he was playing with the sedins?

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Honestly he's worth about 3 or 4 million. Give that extra money to the Sedins who have turned him into a 30 goal scorer. Without them he would struggle to put up 20 goals by himself and you all know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorrcoq Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Definitely underpaid by today's scale - hell, even if that bum Raymond gets cut, he'll make more - but considering that nobody twisted his arm, and that the contract seemed fair to both sides at the time, it's hard to feel sorry for him. He'll cash in on the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Burrows is a good player - no doubt. But I don't think that his stats would be quite as impressive without the Sedins. I've been an advocate for getting a big physical player with skill to play with the Sedins, then drop Burrows down to the 2nd line where I feel he better belongs. I think he is worth maybe 3.5m?

Kerry Park Islanders Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Burrows is my favorite type of hockey story. He has clawed and fought for everything he has. He started at the bottom, on the edge of obscurity. From the ECHL to first line on an NHL team. I truly believe he will stay a canuck and at the same time be paid a fair NHL wage. MG knows what he has in Burrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeystar Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Really...? I thought you'd respect someone if they took less money to play for the team, but I guess not. Weird huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
