Ah, you've got to love this guy. Former Badger and Blackhawk Adam Burish is known for speaking his mind he called a few of the Canucks a bunch of clowns. Personally I think Adam Burish is character guy and the league needs more players like him. Flyers blogger Frank Seravalli wasn't thrilled with the straight talk by Burish.
“I think Chris Pronger’s the biggest idiot in the league,” Burish said. “I can’t stand him one bit. I hope I never have to see him again. If I see him out there, I might punch him.”
Did Burish see the poorly done Chicago Tribune poster that depicted Pronger in a skirt, calling him ‘Chrissy Pronger’?
“No, but that’s perfect,” Burish said. “He should have worn that out here [on the ice]. He was terrible.”
Classy winner, right?
Those are some big words for a forward who has never posted more than nine points in an NHL season or positively contributed to a winning team. Pronger’s resume includes three Stanley Cup Finals with three different teams, a Hart Trophy, a Norris Trophy and a Stanley Cup ring.
Our advice to Burish when these two teams meet next season: keep your head up. That is, if he’s playing. [Philly.com]
