Burns noted the exciting prospects for the Sharks, mentioning, "It's great. It's a special place. You got some really special guys there. Seeing that come back, it's nice, it's good ... hopefully not that good tonight." He expressed pride in the organization's resurgence and its importance to the community.
Burns remarked on the Sharks acquiring the No. 1 pick: "It was really cool how they did it with Jumbo. It's great for the fanbase there that they really do bleed teal. It's a special place." He underlined the significance of Macklin Celebrini joining the team and the personal connections involved.
Reflecting on the summer of 2018, Burns mentioned his influence on Rick Celebrini's choice: "Telling Rick about the Warriors or Spurs, it's kind of funny now, because it worked out well for both. Rick staying home with the work he’s done at both places, it’s a good path." This highlights his role in shaping others' careers.
On potential future Sharks legends, Burns stated, "It's exciting to think about who might join the ranks of jersey retirements. There’s a legacy at stake, and it's important for the fans to continue the connection with those players who represent the heart of the franchise."
