Speculation: Another year of this Bluc **** (The 2024-25 season thread)

[AbsentMojo]

I think I heard Hiller has some kind of connection to Lou Lamoriello and some coaches/players where Burroughs spent time playing and he was recommended as a good hard working culture guy. I could be wrong but I think I remember something like that.
The team must like having him around. Seemed like JAD was well liked also judging by the reaction when he got traded.

He was waved last March and claimed by Nashville - just FYI.. I never understood why they wanted to hang on to JAD when they had Turcotte who had a fine camp... old news water under the bridge now, but always puzzled me... and we do tend to ignore the human aspects liike friendships within the league and doing solids for friends like it may explain Burroughs presence on the roster.
