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.

Have you seen Pronger's fight card? Dan Cleary, Michael Handzus, Jiri Slegr........and, er that's about it I think. Guy is the biggest coward in the league.

And I'm with Doc on this one - if Burish can't criticise Pronger, then you can't criticise Burish.

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.

Pronger in the HOF... that just made me throw up a little in my mouth.

[SH444]

Haha Burish is such an idiot.

Just because he doesn't fight, doesn't mean he can't. He just knows he will almost always be more valuable than the other guy going off for 5.

And I really don't see how I can't criticize Burish when my points are factual (I.E. in 10 years no one will ever remember him), in contrast to Burish just speaking out of his ass and insinuating claims we all know he can't and will not back up.

Burish showed poor judgment in this situation. He should have said that Chris Pronger is the funniest-looking douchecanoe in the league.

[SweWings]

I don't really see the big deal - Pronger is a ******, most people acknowledge that. I haven't actually talked to anyone who thinks he's an honorable guy. That goes for his on-ice performance; don't really care how he is in person. The only reason this is an issue is because Adam Burish had the bad taste to bring it up at the time he did.

[SouthernWingsFan]

Why, because you personally don't like him? Have you ever listened to him talk? I'm willing to bet the answer is no, seeing as he normally has some spot on comments. ******=/=Unintelligent.

Yep, and I don't like his past history of incidents.

You have a problem with that or something?

[Travis]

More power to Burish. I was totally with him until he said he might punch his face. Let's not say things we don't mean, boys.

[henrik40]

They're both clowns

[2guns]

I think burish and pronger are both idiots. Pronger for his on ice actions and burish for his s*** talking after being benched for 2 games, maybe 3. Hell, even the chick interviewing burish is a moron, for trying to stoke the fire a bit more.

I find the hatred for pronger amusing as he would've been absolutely adored if he was a Wing. As far as burish is concerned, ease up cowboy, how important were you again?

LOL, eff it, everyone there that night was a moron!

[Travis]

I don't think there's anyone here who is disputing the fact that he's a hell of a defenseman. It very well could be a Chelios-type situation in many cases where he would look completely different in red and white; but it doesn't really distract from the fact that he's an asshat.

[GMRwings1983]

I think former NHL'er Cam Russel holds the title for the worst fighter ever to play in the NHL...That guy had heart, but also had "Everlast" tattooed on his forehead.

Steve Leach is the worst fighter ever.

Steve Webb isn't far behind.

Russell would destroy either of those guys.

But he wasn't done. A reporter reminded the Flyers' towering defenseman Friday afternoon that Burish said he planned to hit him the next time the two players faced off against one another.

Pronger considered the statement a moment, a sly smile playing at the corners of his mouth. Like he always does for members of the Philadelphia media, he had the perfect comeback for Burish.

"Where's that?" Pronger asked. "In the minors?"

Gotta admit, that's funny right there.

[HankthaTank]

Burish set it right up on a tee for him. Win for Pronger on that.

[Lidstromboli]

i get what he means but.. he basically said he'd be playing in the minors too

YEah, that's why it made me laugh even harder. They're both dumbasses.

Pronger probably said to Burish at some stage "I eat pieces of s*** like you for breakfast."

Burish then said, "You eat pieces of s*** for breakfast?"
