Adam Burish (born January 6, 1983) is an American professional ice hockey center who currently plays for the San Jose Sharks of the National Hockey League.
Playing career
Burish was drafted in the 9th round of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft, 282nd overall by the Chicago Blackhawks.
Prior to his NHL career Burish, a Madison, Wisconsin native, played at the University of Wisconsin and graduated with a degree in Economics. He served as captain for the national champion 2005–06 team, and assisted on both goals (by Robbie Earl and Tom Gilbert) in Wisconsin's 2-1 victory over Boston College in the title game.[1]
He won the Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2010 over the Philadelphia Flyers. After the Finals, he claimed that Flyers defenseman Chris Pronger is "the biggest idiot in the league...and if I see him out there, I might punch him." Pronger responded the next day by asking if Burish would punch him in the face in the minors. Burish later took back his comments.
On July 1, 2010, Burish signed a 2-year deal with the Dallas Stars at $1.15 million per year.
On July 1, 2012, Burish signed a 4-year deal with the San Jose Sharks at $1.8 million per year, re-uiniting with University of Wisconsin teammate Joe Pavelski.
Personal
Burish has a younger sister, Nikki Burish, who also played for the University of Wisconsin.[2] He is of Greek descent.[3][4]
