That is all.

Brent Burns and the Harry Potter Tattoo of Awesome - Puck Daddy - NHLBlog - Yahoo! Sports
Burns tweeted this tat on his left thigh earlier in the week, saying he's always loved books and that "Hogwarts looks fun"; he later told the Mercury News that he's a big Harry Potter fan, which is why this piece is among his many tattoos.

How many does Burns have? Consider that his father took him for his first tattoo at age 11, which was a Canadian flag and a hockey stick. From a 2007 article in the Star Tribune, when Burns was a member of the Minnesota Wild:

This summer, Burns got a massive, colorful dragon on his left thigh and a huge tattoo on his back with a picture of his pets with the word "Wild" in green script.

We pause here to reflect on the fact that Burns was traded by the Wild to the San Jose Sharks this summer. Perhaps this rationalization for the "WILD" tattoo still holds four years later:

"I'm getting a lot of heat from [teammates]: 'What if you're traded?'" Burns said. "But first it's a double meaning because it has to do with my love for wildlife and my pets. But the Wild is my first NHL team. That's huge. I've always wanted to play in the NHL, and they gave me the chance."

Well, there you have it. No need for laser removal.

Now, when is Mr. Burns going to give the world a tattoo for his new team? Because Hermione Granger using magic to defeat Megashark would be incredible. She's an exceptional duelist, you know; capable of outmatching even Death Eaters!

That doesn't say what the tatoo actually is. Is it just Harry Potter themed or is it actually a tatoo of Daniel Ratcliff?

Its a image of Daniel Radcliffe from the play Equus. Go ahead, google it with safesearch turned off.

There is a picture in that link of the tattoo.

You'd think for an NHLer he would get better quality ink. That looks horrible.

As long as Burns comes in and improves the Sharks' D (which admittedly is damn near a given considering both Huskins and Wallin are gone) he can sport whatever tattoos he wants for all I care.

No. Don't you dare validate this. I'd hate to have to revoke this from it's rightful owner. I don't want to put the Philly curse on you, but I will!

Start :lm: now!

lol fair enough. Just be thankful you didn't have to watch a defense that had Wallin and Huskins in it or else you might have started babbling inane crap like I did. :p

I went to a couple of Thrashers games this. Trust me, I know. Not even Al Gore could save that penalty kill percentage,

Depending on how it looks I think it could be a sweet idea. You can really go anywhere with an HP tattoo. Hopefully his isnt too nerdy/corny....the image isnt popping up for me.


Edit: just looked at it. Eww

Burns tats are are inconsistent as his play - some are hall of fame worthy, and some are piles of steaming shit - just like his play on the ice - some nights he looks like a hall of famer and some nights he looks like a high schooler.
