well first of all what the fuck is going on?!?! the video is showing all sorts of players, second when i wiki Brendan Burke it says he's a goalie but the ENTIRE video is scorers.... you cant just put a bunch of clips together and call it a montage/dedication video!!!

@kenny8076

1. Brendan Burke was Brian Burkes son, who made news headlines everywhere (even here in the States where I live) on coming out as a gay man who was involved in the hockey world. He tragically died in a car accident.

2. They are showing all sorts of players from the teams that are playing Ottawa v. Toronto, Calgary v. Tampa, and Edmonton v. Colorado.

3. They piled a bunch of clips together and called in a montage/dedication to Brendan Burke because it shows how short life is.

@kenny8076 it wasnt supposed to be a montage of Brendan Burke, it was a montage for HNIC that was dedicated to Brendan... give your head a shake

The only thing that I can hope...and I wonder about this a lot too...is that he would have made a difference, and people would have cared this much regardless of whether or not his father was Brian Burke...

who gives a shit, he didn't contribute to society, he just fucking made too much money skating around on frozen ice shooting a puck.

@Pasalaqcua From reading your terrible comment, he contributed way more to society than you. Do a little research, he never played hockey after High School due to his fear of being discovered of his sexuality. Yet his willingness to admit his sexuality was a great beginning for the sport. He spoke out against homophobia and this was the first step into breaking that barrier like the racial barrier in the NHL. If you still don't understand my comment, he didn't make money from playing hockey
