I have read the thread, was just making some light hearted fun. There will be moist eyes (me included) when he next takes the ice here.
Eventually the thread should be closed tho. Is there a Canucks alumni thread?
Is it because he was Debs' fav that this thread has not been locked yet?
I can't wait for the same 6 posters that hate JB to rip on him because Dahlen doesn't make the nhl for 3 or 4 years.
Wear it with joy!
Burr has a zest for the game like few others. It's great for him to sign for 2 more years and be closer to his extended family. Although it is tough to see him leave once people sleep on it and reconcile the return it should make most fans happy.
Remember the ending to Old Yeller Deb?
Perhaps eventually the new pup will make the loss of the old dog a little easier to take. Now Burrs' career has another legacy here as he will be linked to Dahlen for however long he plays here.
Hope he goes to the Habs at tdl and wins da cup.
His ring of honour night when the video shows him shooting the arrow for Luc the tears will be a flowin'.
