Canucks throwback: Alexandre Burrows snaps Red Wings’ home streak
Throwback time: Thanks to Alexandre Burrows’ heroics, the Vancouver Canucks were able to put an end to the Detroit Red Wings’ 23-game home winning streak.
When you think of Alexandre Burrows’ biggest goals with the Vancouver Canucks, you’ll always think of the “dragon slayer” against the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 7, nine years ago.
His overtime winner in Game 2 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Final against the Boston Bruins frequently comes to mind, too. And it’s hard to forget his series clincher in the extra frame of Game 4 against the St. Louis Blues in the 2009 Western Conference quarterfinals as the Canucks pulled off the four-game sweep.
