Burrows? Do We Really Need Him?

I know allot of people are going to scorch me for this but I fail to see the reason why nobody questions his ability to play in the nhl. Every game i watch with him in the lineup(all of them) I find myself screaming at the tv because of the stupid stuff the guy does. Personally i'd rather have any of the guys that are fighting for a spot on the team rather than burrows. Everyone's #1 reason they like this guy from what I read on this forum "He's great on the pk. Who cares! Anyone can do this thats fighting for a spot. He can't score and i'm tired of kesler carrying this guy on his back night after night, I'm tired of him losing the puck, falling down everywhere seriously this guy falls down a hundred times a night can't he skate its ridiculous, stupid penalties its endless. "He plays with grit" is another common description tossed out when his name comes up. That ok sure he pisses off guys but fails to do really be able finish that job off by being able to fight because he can't. IMOP he's an embarrassment to the team. Please Gillis let this guy go keep Krog or Pettinger or Brown whoever. let er rip.

dumb penalties cost games.

the OP!! haha no wonder you're hatin on burrows every chance you get, we all caught you with your foot in your mouth when you talked about how bad of a player he is.. and now he's on first line!!!!!!!!! Remember when he scored against carolina on the breakaway that turned our season around.. yeah i forgot about that one too! ;)

In case you forgot, here's a picture reminder below....

The person who originally posted this question(Oct.3/08) has had some time to watch Burrows and with what Burrows has achieved during this season, Burrows has answered him loud & clear! Burrows is AWESOME!!!! Dumb question!!! You, who posted this looks stupid!!!

I love this thread. I'd rather not read through 65 pages though. Does anyone know if the OP ever admitted he was wrong about Burrows? By the way I agree with some of the critics that Burrows does stupid stuff from time to time like the hairpulling and the shot from the bench and I'd probably hate him if he wasn't on our team. However if there was a trophy for top pest in the league he'd win it and besides that he is making a major offensive contribution.

Go Burrows, Go 'nucks

Dear Slagging Hose Beast, <Name calling is fun isn't it>

I simply disagree with the majority of posters here and think that Burrows creates a negative image for the organization. Sure he is contributing offensively but at the same time the league will take notice of his antics and it may cost us a penalty when it really matters.

PS: CAPS are not cool.

FO??? I am pretty sure that is a violation of the site rules and not at all code.
