:hou: Bo Burrows Junior Review :hou:

 

Up to this point in time Bo had never played with his brother Alex, and the plan was for them to be an offense-defense duo ever since Bo decided he wanted to go pro so when he had the decision to choose the team he’d join you’d think he’d go with Minnesota Incorrect, but anyways about his career leading up to this point Bo is playing for the Houston Bulls, but what happened before that, and simply to understand we'll have to take a take a look. 
 

In his final season of Midget AAA in 90 games Bo had 73 points for 14 goals and 59 assists, which was his highest ever by a mile, which showed that chances of him being an offensive-defensemen where maybe possible, but on much lower terms, and of course he had the decision to go pro or go home as they say so what did he do? 
 

Bo eventually ended up on his brother's former team the Shawinigan Cataractes where in 64 games he had 28 points for 8 goals and 20 assists. He was still renowned for his defensive play which is what would heavily carry his career moving forward, he didn’t have much of a run with the team though he was a consistent top 4 defensemen for them. 
 

So Burrows was still confronted with a decision, and as a young guy from Montreal he genuinely loved hockey, and thought it was obvious to everyone, but it wasn’t that way so when asked during a press conference what he wanted to do with his career, in his thick French-Canadian accent he replied "I want Hockey", and it was hockey that also wanted him. So when deciding the league he wanted to head out to, he had thought between NHL, KHL, and SHL and occasionally Liiga and the DEL. So when his brother walked in his room, and told him about the underrated VHL ,and that his brother was looking to join it seemed to only be destiny for Bo. So he looked into it, and he waited and waited until the VHL draft, and as his brother was called on stage he thought "Will they even sign me to a deal". If only he knew. 
 

So the VHL draft was concluded, and Bo had declared for VHLM waivers, and boy oh boy he got offers, his main interests where the Bulls and the Storm, and anyone looking in from the outside would think the Storm, and play with your brother, but Bo had other plans. He saw that Houston had something he liked, a life-long friend in Hugh Jass and former pairing with his agency, and he struggled between the two, and didn’t want to give it too much thought on the subject, so he reluctantly kickstarted his career with the Bulls, and from their his VHL career was born. 
 

Upon signing with the Bulls, Burrows had just a few words to say when asked why? "O, Bo knows." Then with laughter he was on to go play.
