He's an agitator that has been in the league over 10 years and never gone public before, Burrows definitely went to far
Except he did go public last year.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/icing-racism-in-hockey-players-speak-out-1.2831319Tootoo is also known to be as big of a piece of shit as Burrows over his career so it's hard to feel bad.

Was pretty clear imo, Tootoo complained that Burrows crossed a line into his personal life, Tootoo has a history with alcoholism and substance abuse. If it were anything racial Burrows would be suspended, nothing else really fits.
Reminds me of Kerry Frazer telling stories of Theo Fleury coming to him during games with tears in his eyes complaining about the shit talking he's receiving, and that its not fair because he's 'sober' now. Ah, the old NHL.....
Well the way Tootoo was being a little baby bitch boy Burrows could have said something mean about Tootoo's hair and he probably would have cried just the same.
If you listen to all the ex-players on TV the consensus was that Tootoo definitely handled it the wrong way going to the media and not "leaving it on the ice" but also leaving it open for wide speculation, like the stuff in this thread.
