I’m a big Burrows fan, but seriously, the re-pinning of this thread that was already pinned years past its expiration simply because of an announcement that Burrows and the Sedins will be in the ring of honour this year? We have a very exciting group of new players to focus on and in my opinion if this thread is destined to stay at the top of this forum it should have to do so via member replies rather than pinning. The refs already do that. Doesn't make a difference who we have on the team or what they do. It's the reason Kesler (and to some extent Burrows) started diving. The league is a joke. Can't throw the baby out with the bath water though. Love the Canucks. Burrows was great. Would love to see him as part of the organization in some capacity.

Bubble Man Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 From all accounts he was amazing with young players. He would often get honourable mentions in rookie interviews. I can’t think of a better person to be involved with player development. He is the Ultimate developmental success story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyHarry Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Burrows imo is the most fan overrated Canuck of all time. Yes I respect his journey too make the NHL. But besides that. As a player he wasn’t that great he was just a solid 3rd liner without the Twins. i don’t get this stupid thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Martin Gelinas imo was equally and even a Better Canuck with as much or more heart and soul then Burrows. But no body talks about Gélinas. Unfortunately Marty get stupidly traded for Sean Burke and Geoff Sanderson. Gelinas > Burrows and it’s not even close. plus Gelinas didn’t have the Twins. He just had piss poor new management and lazy ass teammates. Edited July 17, 2019 by HockeyHarry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just had piss poor new management and lazy ass teammates. maybe, but burrows spent more time on the canucks. he was also a far more integral piece of a canucks cup run than gelinas was. dont forget... he slayed the dragon. he also was also more than just a solid 3rd liner without the sedins. he was an elite 3rd liner. this thread was created at a time when the value of alex burrows was clear to everyone except for the one who made the thread. it has hit legendary status because burrows went on to exceed our expectations of him even at the time this thread was made. gelinas deserves credit, but in terms of canucks lore, burrows >>>>>> gelinas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I disagree with elite 3rd liner. Burrow is so Overrated by people here. yes the way he become an NHLer is an interesting story. But That’s about it. i don’t agree with him being in the Ring of Honor. Gelinas > Burrows and neither should be in the ring of honor imo.

HockeyHarry Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I mentioned Martin Gélinas cuz he’s an example of an underrated Canuck. It was too show the contrast in the delusion of Burrows hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
