Burrows (upper-body) has been taken to hospital; will not play in Game 4.

Burrows was injured in practice on Tuesday and had to leave the ice. After being evaluated by the Canucks medical staff he was loaded onto a stretcher and brought to the hospital for precautionary reasons. His hospital visit suggests that he might have something serious going on. He is expected to be replaced by Sven Baertschi, who was recalled from Utica (AHL) this afternoon.

Erhoff left Wednesday's game with an undisclosed injury and did not return.

Ehrhoff, who missed 19 of the Penguins' past 24 games, appeared dizzy after the side of his head hit the boards following a Vladimir Tarasenko hit early in the first period. Coach Mike Johnston said said after the game that he had no update on Ehrhoff's status. He has eben battling concussion issues since mid-January.

Burrows (groin) will play on Tuesday.

Burrows missed Saturday’s game against the Maple Leafs, but will be back tomorrow vs. the Flyers. Burrows was skating with Brad Richardson and Chris Higgins this morning, so expect him to be on that third line tomorrow. He has 25 points (12G / 13A) in 56 games this season.

Burrows (groin) will be a game-time decision on Thursday.

Burrows has missed the last six games, but it looks like he will return tonight in warmups. He took part in line rushes in the Canucks top-6 and Willie Desjardins said a couple players will return tonight, but didn’t sat whom. Presumably that will but Burrows, who has 25 points (12G / 13A) in 52 games this season.

Ehrhoff (undisclosed) skated on Monday after missing Sunday's game.

Ehrhoff was a surprise scratch from Sunday’s game, but was back on the ice for practice this morning. Being back on the ice today is a good sign that he will be available on Wednesday in Colorado. Monitor his status leading up to that.
