Canucks pest Alex Burrows has all but surrendered his position alongside the Sedin twins to Vancouver's free-agent acquisition Radim Vrbata, explaining Tuesday he was never really the right choice anyway.
“I always thought, personally, that they’d be better with a right-handed guy,” the lefty told the Vancouver Sun. “I think sometimes on the cycle a right-handed shot would work well (in the slot) when Danny and Hank work in the right corner.
"We tried to make it work.... but a righty there might be good.”
