Louie14 Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 This guy was a huge character in my childhood. Whether the score was 5-0 or 0-5 Burns was a rock behind the bench, and his players loved him for it. We all knew this was coming, but it's shitty nonetheless. I'll save my gripes with the H.O.F. committee for another day. I drank a few to Burnsie tonight; I recommend everyone else do the same.

smozoma Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 It was Pat Burns' Leafs that went to the conference finals in 93 and shaped my love of hockey forever! Three straight 7 game series... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
