Canucks team scope: Alexandre Burrows moved to a line with Daniel and Henrik Sedin in practice Monday. "I'm looking forward to it," Burrows told the Canucks website. "Hopefully we'll be able to get the team going a little bit, get some goals and lead that way." Vancouver has lost four games in a row. "We need to work harder," Burrows said. "We need to compete harder. Our intensity needs to be better." Forwards Derek Dorsett (upper body) and Jannik Hansen (ribs), and defenseman Yannick Weber (upper body), have accompanied the team on a three-game road trip. Defenseman Christopher Tanev (undisclosed) did not practice Monday. Forwards Brandon Sutter (broken jaw) and Radim Vrbata (lower body), and defenseman Alexander Edler (fractured tibia), will not play again this season, coach Willie Desjardins said.
Jets team scope: Forward Mathieu Perreault will be out indefinitely because of a concussion sustained in a 3-2 overtime loss against the Anaheim Ducks this past Sunday, according to the Jets website. Forwards Joel Armia (upper body) and Nikolaj Ehlers (eye), and defenseman Mark Stuart (hand), practiced Monday. None of the three will play Tuesday, coach Paul Maurice said. Maurice has not confirmed a starting goaltender; Michael Hutchinson and Ondrej Pavelec have alternated the past two starts. The power play is 1-for-28 in the past nine games. Forwards Chase De Leo, Scott Kosmachuk and Nic Petan remain on emergency recall. Winnipeg has lost nine of its past 12 games and 15 of its past 19 at MTS Centre as a four-game homestand continues.
