Team Einarson adds Karlee Burgess to lineup after her departure from Team Carey
Team Kerri Einarson is adding three-time world junior champion Karlee Burgess to its lineup.
Burgess will fill in for second Shannon Birchard, who will miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury.
The team says Curling Canada granted the four-time national champions an injury exemption, which allows them to use a replacement player and maintain eligibility for the upcoming Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
The team also includes vice Val Sweeting and fifth Krysten Karwacki, who has been filling in for Briane Harris at lead.
