The only breaks this poor guy catches are broken jaws. Burrows will eventually score a goal before the end of the season. :twirleye:

I'm still amazed at how Burrows has ZERO goals.

If that's the case, that's really too bad then.
Canuck fans should be disgusted enough to toss them.

Comprehend much? It was a canucks fan who took his jersey off and the Hawks fan threw it. His jersey had a custom last name. Actually the Hawks jersey guy has a custom name too

I don't think NTC are as bad as you're making them out to be, and there are also 'limited NTC' where players can list a number of teams they would take a trade to or a number of teams they wouldn't move to. Simply put, it just formally gives the player the power to determine where he will play, it doesn't necessarily mean that the player always wants to stay with that same team that gave them the NTC. Even without a NTC, players kind of have that power anyways. They can refuse to report to a team they've been traded to for example, and it would be foolish for a team to trade a guy to a team he refuses to go to even if its within their right. A NTC just formally involves the player to determine who the team can use as a trading partner, that's the way I view them anyways. I don't think asking a player to waive a NTC necessarily poisons the water for all current and future players, its a reality of the business.

There can be a number of reasons why players would accept waiving their NTC, not just wanting to GTFO. If they are struggling under the system their team plays esp if a contract year is coming up; wanting to play for a contending team; wanting to play in a nicer city with better weather or tax savings; etc etc.

If you take the Luongo saga from the past, Lu never came out and asked to be traded outright yet he was expecting and wanting to be moved, MG never explicitly asked Lu to waive his NTC yet was wanting to move Lu. So something has to give, its a bit of a dance

So I guess your friend who's the biggest Canuck fan you know of has called the quits?
Seems like he just had enough, and told his Blackhawk fan buddy to just take his jersey and chuck it.

Western Conf teams suggest the Rangers are gathering intel on Chris Stewart. Callahan for Stewart would be a sweet deal for the Blues.

I understand Callahan being a UFA and the type of contract he's looking for won't fetch some crazy value being a rental at the trade deadline, I sure hope they can get more than Chris Stewart though he might be underrated but still think they can try to find something better
