Burrows (neck) was moved to injured reserve Monday, Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows hurt his neck against the Kings on Saturday and missed Sunday's game with the Ducks, which was somewhat misleading given his status as a healthy scratch for that contest. Nonetheless, he'll be forced to miss a minimum of seven days per IR rules, which means Burrows' first chance to return will come on Nov. 2 in a road contest with the Canadiens.

Burrows injured his neck in Saturday's game against Los Angeles, which was the cause for his absence Sunday versus Anaheim, Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows played regular minutes in Saturday's game, likely leaving his injury less detectable. Kuzma suggests that the team will recall two skaters Monday, which would mean there's a danger of the combination of Burrows, Derek Dorsett (shoulder) and Chris Tanev (undisclosed) missing out on Tuesday's contest against the Senators.

Burrows is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game in Anaheim.
EDGE Analysis
Nothing to see here. Averaging only 11:17 of ice time this season and now being scratched from the lineup, Burrows isn't likely to be overly effective this season.

Burrows skated 11:25 in Tuesday's overtime win against St. Louis, going scoreless with a shot and two hits.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows has gone scoreless with a minus-1 rating and two shots through three games as a member of the Canucks' fourth line. It's no surprise to see him buried on the depth chart after last year's struggles; fantasy owners who paused to glance at his familiar name can safely look elsewhere.

Burrows (illness) is in the lineup Saturday against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
It was reported earlier that Burrows would be out of the lineup due to the flu.

Burrows (illness) won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Blues, Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows' absence shouldn't impact many fantasy owners' lineups, as the 34-year-old winger has only notched 19 points (eight goals, 11 assists) and 113 shots on goal in 67 games this season. He'll hope to return to action Tuesday against Winnipeg.

Burrows (undisclosed) resumed practicing with the team Tuesday, Jon Abbott of TSN1040 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows missed Monday's matchup with the Jets after taking a puck to the foot from the NHL's reigning hardest shot champion Shea Weber. Joining his teammates on the ice is a good sign the 34-year-old could be available against the Avalanche on Wednesday. We should know more about the winger's status after the Canucks' pre-game skate.

Burrows will skip Monday's game against the Jets with an undisclosed injury.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows played the full game against Nashville, so it remains a bit unclear when the issue surfaced (if it's even an injury). In his absence Monday, the Canucks will add Alexandre Grenier to the lineup, and appears likely to slot into Burrows' spot on the second line. Expect another update on the 34-year-old winger ahead of Wednesday's contest, possibly clarifying the reason behind his absence.

Burrows registered two assists in a 4-2 win over Nashville on Saturday. He also skated to a plus-2.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows' apples were both of the secondary variety, coming on goals by Derek Dorsett in the first period and Bo Horvat in the second. He has been just about as underwhelming as they come in terms of fantasy this season, as the former 67-point-getter has just 19 points to go with a minus-9 rating and 107 shots on goal through 65 games. That's a 24-point pace, so it's likely Burrows will end up with the lowest point total over a full NHL season since his sophomore campaign way back in 2006-07.

Burrows recorded an assist, a plus-1 rating and a shot on goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Burrows now has assists in two straight games after failing to break onto the scoresheet in the previous four games. He still has just six points in his last 15 games, however. It doesn't look as though the 34-year-old wing will be making an offensive breakout anytime soon and doesn't have much to add to your team on the fantasy front.
