The list continues...
9. Brent Burns ~ although he has only been a regular contributor to the team since the lockout, Burns has become this team's best defenseman. Drafted as a forward, he was switched to defense and excelled. Sure, he plays a bit reckless a times, but that's part of his charm. Ask most hockey wonks to name the best 5 young defensemen in the league and his name will come up every time, usually right after the overrated scarecrow in Calgary. If I were doing this list over in 3 years, something tells me Burns would be near the top, but for now he's at number 9.
Beer #9: Sleeman's Cream Ale. No explanation to give here, it's just a good beer.
Added: my favorite BB moment (gotta love the grin on his way to the box):

go burns, i dont know, i believe he should be higher. i too am a sleemans fan, though i cant find it anywhere! where is it? do they have the cream ale!?!?
Good call, Tom, I can't find Sleemans lately either.
I struggled with putting Burns only at #9, but he's really only been a player for 3 seasons so far.
guess i will wait and see the rest of the best, i heard sleemans no longer distributes to the states :(
making sure i wasn't out of the loop
Sleemans Cream baby. I miss that stuff. It's very popular in hoserland eh. Beauty way to go
