Not trying to derail the topic... It's funny I decided to click on a random link on the upper left corner to one of the NHL teams. I clicked on Atlanta... Wow.. talk about old school layout and reading some of the headlines, and holy clip art images of doom!! And Season tickets start low as $10 per game! Oh and you can call the hotline number to purchase your own ticket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJDDawg Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 So this is it.. the end of the line on an improbable career. Time to come home Burr and join the coaching or front office staff. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might say yes if he didn't have that next expensive year of his contract coming up. If this were the last year on his deal, with it being clear it's over at the end of the season, yeah I'd bring him back and let him finish out the stretch with some dignity in front of his longtime fans.

Gurn Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 If he is still available when the Canucks can put in a claim, and he agrees to retire at the end of this year; he and the twins can retire together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe-max Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 If Vanek, Gagner and MDZ went out, I wouldn't mind taking Burrows in. 3-4 picks/prospects plus Burrows for free without considerably weakening the team? Asset management, baby! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCNeil Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Isn't he still serving his suspension? Looks like they planned to waive him for awhile, but didn't want to do it right after the kneeing Edited February 25, 2018 by BCNeil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claim him on the condition that he retires at the end of the season. Win win, Burrows gets to retire a Canuck, fans get to see him retire as a Canuck, it costs the team next to nothing at a time when they are not in contention anyways. Also gives him the chance to end his NHL career with pride instead of being buried and forgotten in the minors at the end.

-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 It's funny how the title of this thread still remains relevant even today. With Burrows on waivers, "do we really need him?" I would think the question will still remain relevant after he announces his retirement if he's looking for a role within the Canucks organization. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
