Ben Shelley: Brent Burns proving to be perfect fit with Hurricanes after offseason trade

Burns is playing the way we need him to. If you don't expect Hamilton numbers and TDA inconsistencies, he's fit in quite nicely. Given he's only been with the team for 3 plus months really can't complain.

Remaining term is a benefit too - three years total is probably ideal. Wouldn't want any longer given the age but for that price until 2025, it's a relatively low-risk move.

Burns would have fit on most teams. Nice acquisition!
