Reilly's hit was a blindside, late and unnecessary hit considering that the Leafs were up 5-2, like Cherry said. Hansen never even touched the puck with his stick, he deflected the pass from Stecher off his skate to Daniel barely having it for a fraction of a second.

 

Burrows should be fined for the spear but Reilly should not of made that hit. Would of been content with just a fight or a late hit on Reilly.

 

 

that sums it up nicely... surprised he not suspended... would make sense.... open season on the Canucks(Sedins) and nail any Canuck they can

Edgy and classless. Love it.

 

Anyone more concerned with Burr's stick work than Daniel getting a head shot is a sh!t fan imo. Why do you even watch the Canucks is this is how you feel?

I don't like guys that don't respect the code.  Burrows has no class.

 

I would rather have Pedan on the 4th than Burrows....

Burrows no class?? Yeah hes a bit of a dink on the ice sometimes, but for the most part he plays a hard nosed game and gets in peoples heads. Was the spear cheap?? No question. Dude Burrows is the definition of a teammate.

 

And......There is a code now?? I thought part of the code was not to make runs at teams best players, when youre up by 3 goals in the 3rd?? I thought the code was to not have your tough guy try to rag doll a kid playing his 3rd game in the league??? Hmmm some code we have....

Clearly by making this thread I insinuated that I was totally unconcerned by Daniel's blindside hit. I have no idea why I watch the Canucks, but do tell me more about how I feel. I find it quite interesting.

Dude your post is pathetic. How dare you call burrs move pathetic? 

 

For 12 seasons he's put blood, sweat and tears on the line and stood up for his team mates. 

 

Should have speared him to the face. 

 

Long Live burrows.

The code is never to Spear.     Spearing is for cowards actually.....    I expect way more from my canucks.   Go old school in your revenge, not the Spear , Sorry.

The fact that you even feel the need to ask the poll question is all I need to know. If Daniels career had been ended last night, would you have posted maybe its good for rebuilding? I will never get fans like you that take opportunities to slag our players. Burr did what was needed to protect our guys. Reilly is going to have a nice goose egg on his rib to remind him blind side hits won't be tolerated, and he'll get it one way or the other if he pulls that kind of crap again. The league has shown it will not have any kind of fairness when it comes to our guys, and we have to police things ourselves.  You'd think that would be apparent to the fanbase by now but apparently not.

Bring on the minuses. I could care less.  So sick of Burrows giving our club a reputation as cheap. 

Burrows needs to stop the biting, inappropriate trash talk , spearing  crap.  Go Old School if you want to sort guys out....

Yes yes and yes!

And what about the code against blindside late hits???

 

One cheapshot deserves another.

The good side of me says it was a cheap spear and he's lucky he didn't get suspended.  

 

Then you have the side if me who thinks of how the NHL doesn't give a rats arse about us and how the hockey world is biased against our team and city...In that case Burrows should have Mcsorleyed him over the head.

Spearing happens alot in the game but most if it goes undetected.  I've been speared countless times when I played rec league and I've done my fair share. 

 

But most of us are men, unlike Reilly and we take it.

Not a fan of the spear or the slew foot.....

 

I would prefer of course to see a legal hit...  but if not possible  a consensual fight...   In my darker days ( raging out )  i would probably have used the late hit / elbow   though......

Really hockey fans want tough hockey players  not cheap hockey players. 

Add pulling hair to that fine list of toughness. I've always respected his heart and work ethic but not this dirty cheap side to his game and it's been embarrassing over the years.

 

Burrow's clearly not the player he used to be and I was hoping a Zalewski or Labate could or will take over giving us far more real toughness and speed that's visibly needed.

Why would any hockey player's actions be embarrassing to you?  Do you mean Burrows should be embarrassed?
