"Yeah, well it's not about the market's affinity for the person, although, Alex Burrows is beloved here in Vancouver, it's about whether Rick Tocchet can work with him. I like the shout that he can work on both the powerplay and penalty kill units.
As we know, Tocchet is looking for a senior assistant, and after putting in some time here with the Montreal Canadiens, I would think that Alex now qualifies as a senior assistant in the NHL. Plus, wonderful story bringing him full circle, back to the market where he made his name."
