This is ridiculous. Burrows was one of the best two way players in the NHL during that time. He is a heart and soul player who lays it all on the line for this team, and has since his first game for this franchise. I can suffer a couple years of a poor contract for that. There are much bigger problems with this team than an overpaid Burrows.
Yep pretty sad how quickly the fam base has turned on Burrows. And Horvat for that matter.
Burrows last year was an elite defensive winger contributing at a high rate offensively for his minutes at even strength. If he was overpaid it wasn't by much. This year he was one of our best players the first dozen games or so, then he hits a rough patch and the fans turn on him. Pathetic.
It's not because of Burrows and Horvat that this team stinks.
