racist remarks? is there any evidence of that? because every source has suggested that racist comments weren't actually said.I love burrows, but "mentor"? It's like saying a drug addicted criminal is a great babysitter for your kids lol. Hair pulling, racist remarks, biting, diving-Auger...... He's not a role model.
auger? uh, all evidence suggests that the allegations burrows made were completely true.
alex burrows worked his tail off to get to the NHL, he played well at every level and finally got a shot at the nhl, since he stepped foot in the league he has been a premiere defensive forward who worked extremely hard on and off the ice, this didn't change when he scored 35 goals, heck you could argue in his prime that he was the best defensive forward in the entire league. he's now an excellent possession driver that's playing the hardest minutes on the team, being moved around the lineup and still churning out good results. he has helped the kids stay afloat possession wise, and you can tell that he's a gigantic part of our locker room, on top of by all accounts being a fantastic guy off the ice. id much rather have a guy like burrows showing the kids the ropes than a guy like dorsett.
these are 19 - 23 year old men, they don't need someone who's going to teach them right from wrong, they need someone who can make them better hockey players and show them the ropes of being effective ice hockey players at the national hockey league level
edit - reading this over its really poorly constructed, haven't had my morning coffee yet. but the points are still easy to understand.
