Canucks' Alex Burrows: Lands on IR

Burrows (neck) was moved to injured reserve Monday, Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province reports.

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.
