Alex Burrows, who was involved in a fight and later scored in the shootout for the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday, is out of the lineup for Friday’s match-up against the New Jersey Devils.
Burrows was shown on Sportsnet taking the pre-game skate and discussing something with the Canucks training staff. The Canucks made the lineup decision official shortly before the opening faceoff.
Zack Kassian, a healthy scratch against the Rangers, will draw back into the lineup.
Burrows is out with a "lower body injury." #Canucks

Alex Burrows spent some time talking to the #canucks medical team on the bench during warmup. Not sure what's up. Kassian taking warmup.
