Yes and Burish looks like my homeless uncle. Lets sign him lol.

So after a season is concluded they have the right to say things they couldn't during the playoffs? Most players are more relaxed and honest with the media after a season...

i like this video because it makes philly fans mad.

Q: Say, Adam Burish, I see your team has just won the Stanley Cup. Where are you going next?
A: Some other team next season!

[Yzerman#19]

Awesome. Just Awesome.

[EZBAKETHAGANGSTA]

I love it when no name scrubs take shots at potential HOFers just because their team won.

"I Might punch him" lol give me a break, Burrish would get wrecked.

What NHL team do you play for again?

[Barrie]

Pronger is an idiot, but don't say it out loud like that! When you win the Stanley Cup, it's not like you'll never have to play another game! Now you're the team everyone wants a shot at.

A guy like Pronger thrives on this stuff!

Do you see me calling players with far better hockey sense than me "the biggest idiot in the league" or talking s*** like I can beat someone up who I clearly can't? No? Then learn to take things in context.

In comparison to Pronger, Burrish is a scrub player, and we all know that he would never challenge Pronger unless in the heat of adrenaline.

[Barrie]

Who was it when McCarty signed with Calgary that said something like, "We're not going to remind him we beat him in the playoffs last year"? Detroit players and fans will hear that, geeze! Also McCarty was a 3 time Stanley Cup Champion at that time, and Calgary, all they did was win a Western Conference.

You are acting like he is a scrub in comparison to Pronger, which is ironic because you are a scrub in comparison to Burish.

So he called Pronger an idiot? Boo hoo. He said he would punch him? Boo hoo. He said he played terrible? Well I didn't see Pronger as much of a gamebreaker out there except for that wonderful high sticking penalty that caused the first Chicago goal.


Bigf****** deal.

From the HF Boards:


"I love the people who post crap saying Burish can't say this because he isn't a "good enough hockey player" or whatever. Based on that logic we should just shut down HFBoards. Who here has the right to say bad things about anyone in the NHL? After all, they are better than we are, so therefore our opinions don't matter.

If Adam Burish isn't allowed to comment on Chris Pronger because Pronger is an All-Star and Burish is a scrub, then we aren't allowed to comment on Adam Burish because he is in the NHL and we aren't.

Talk about double standards."

You sure seem to be making it one. I'm sorry for giving my opinion about a subject, I thought that's what this board was for. Also, I don't really think you truly understand the definition of Irony, as I never insinuated Burish is a scrub in comparison to me, but rather, a scrub in comparison to the vast majority of the league. I guess I'm not allowed to say Lebda sucks either?

[Stinkyness]

I'd have went a step further and called Pronger a giant ****** as well as an idiot. Good for Burish, rub it in! My "Pronger Hate is thriving" as well as my joy of his losing.

You act like Burish can't call out Pronger because he is so terrible in comparison, which was the whole point.

If he can be berated for it, why can't you?

It's from different perspectives though. A fan to player one, vs a player to player one. Your whole argument goes against your point too, as if you truly believe this then you are no longer allowed to say things such as "lebda sucks", or critique anyone at a higher level of any faucet at life than you. This is an illogical point of view, and takes away all the observational fun that this board is meant to promote.

I'm going to bookmark this thread, and save it for the next time you berate any player. Fan to Player critique is different than player to player. Have fun never being able to say a player made a bad giveaway, since I'm sure you never could have done better.

You have no idea what my point is.

I didn't say once that people can't critique or give players who are better than them grief.

I don't mean to be rude, but you don't seem very bright. My "argument" is that attacking the messenger and not the message is really stupid, not that we can't criticize the performance of NHL players. Obviously Burish has every right to say that about Pronger just as I have every right to say Howard sucks.

You have no idea what my point is.

yeah, this guy is pretty much clueless.

Let me get this straight...

1) I say the factual statement that Burish is a scrub compared to Pronger, and would most probably lose in a fight against him, despite Burris's bravado.

2) You call me out and accuse me of hypocrisy through means of sarcasm

3) I respond that if we can't critique players, there is no point to this forum, as we are doing exactly what you previously chastised.


That's how I see it, if I'm somehow missing something please take the time to elaborate, instead of making another account as a sockpuppet to argue this fact. There is a reason why you have a resounding -6 on your post, without me even negging it.
