Defended the trade all the way. Do I wish we hadn't gave up Dahlen ? sure. That being said I watch a lot of Vancouver games and Burrows isn't a washed up useless player at all. Had 2 goals last night but his work along the boards was superb and his play without the puck too. Even laid out Barrie along the boards. The problem on this site and in life in general is people over value picks and prospects like crazy and don't look at the big picture.
I facepalm so hard when I read Erat vs Forsberg comparison. The thing is Dahlen isn't Forsberg at all, nor do we know his development. And the other thing is Burrows isn't Erat, like, at all.
He won't score every night but you can expect this play to keep up with the blocks, hits and disturbance all over the ice.
