Remembering Pat Burns with Gare Joyce
Award-winning Canadian sports journalist Gare Joyce remembers Stanley Cup-winning head coach and Hockey Hall of Famer Pat Burns.
Gare remembers Burns' early career as an undercover police officer, his coaching success in every NHL city he worked in, how especially beloved he was in Toronto, and the toll of his departure from the Maple Leafs. Gare also remembers the ensuing meeting between the 2 of them at a remote, dimly lit bar and how ultimately the Hockey Hall of Fame was way too slow with Pat's induction. Pick up a copy of Gare's new memoir "Portrait of a Hockey Scribe: Life on Press Row".
