Big, timely goals. Great defensive play. A bit of sandpaper to his game. And that celebration, always remembering a fallen teammate and friend. He was truly Mr. Everything to the Canucks.
There may not be a more polarizing figure in hockey than Alexandre Burrows, and there’s no shortage of players, media or fans who would love to let you know what they think about him. Those people can go kick rocks. This is about a guy who gave his heart, soul and a hell of a lot of blood and sweat for this team. His story would probably be immortalized if he played for a team that isn’t cool to hate.
