LOL Mick!
Bura won’t get much patience from Trotz’s, I’ll tell ya that! 3rd reset in 3 seasons!

Yep, looking like a head case. He looks confused to me. Wonder if he took a concussion? I imagine he's getting some trade talk within the team. Not sure what they could get back at this point but anythings is better than a sad sack.

Couldn’t agree more with ya Mick!
I say get what we can for him, hoping that one of the teams hasn’t done all their homework! He’s been given more than his fair share of sweet opportunities to prove himself. He has some decent proven MOMENTS, but nothing in the consistency and team player categories to really speak of!

I think I might have mentioned before that I think Burro has a little Semin in him....... phnaaaar! :P
Sasha had some issues, for sure and he had Ovi mentoring him. Burro doesn't have that support, which is a shame.
Semin had waaaay more skill and he was let go because of his attitude, so I can't see Burt getting many more chances. If he doesn't get it by now, I don't think he ever will. He doesn't have the talent that Semin had and his attitude stinks. He's not a TEAM player.
We see megastars like Ovi and Backstom being team first players and this runt just doesn't get it.
Unless he has a major epiphany very, very soon, I can't see him being here much longer. I just hope we can get something decent for him in return.
On the flip side, I really, really like the way Eller and Willy have been playing recently. Also SMelly. Loved the way he stood up for Hooks last night and he hasn't been as much of a washout as I had expected.
Maacoshark:
It seems everyone has the same feelings about Burakovsky. He has easily been the biggest disappointment on the team. I could see the Caps trading him.
Another disappointment has been Oshie. He started off strong but has really struggled since his return from injury. His struggles haven't only been on the offensive side. Inconsistent play was a bit of a problem when he played for the Blues. Its the first time we have seen it from Oshie.
