San Jose Sharks defenseman Brent Burns has been widely regarded as one of the most interesting players in the NHL. It's hard to miss the 35-year-old with his top knot hair style and his long, majestic, wild man beard. Considering that this is his signature look, he would fit right in on the television series Vikings.

The long-time San Jose Shark did just that as he appeared in both the 13th and 14th episodes in the 6th season of the series. Many people probably won't notice him since he fits in so well with the rest of the cast, but hockey fans will easily be able to pick out the fan-favourite.
Burns showcases his acting skills in the show as a character named Skane, receiving quite the introduction from a fellow cast member.
"I have a new ally. His name is Skane. Not difficult to remember. And, as you all will discover, hard to forget."
The Canadian has already appeared in many commercials for the San Jose Sharks over his tenure with the team, so this is not the first occurrence with him in front of a camera. What could he possibly do to top his latest acting endeavor?
