Alexandre Ménard-Burrows (born April 11, 1981) is a Canadian professional ice hockey winger with the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League (NHL). He is known for playing in the style of an agitator and for his ascension to the NHL from being an undrafted player in the ECHL.

Burrows played two seasons of major junior in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) with the Shawinigan Cataractes. Undrafted by an NHL club, Burrows joined the ECHL with the Greenville Grrrowl in 2002–03. Late in his professional rookie season, he transferred to the Baton Rouge Kingfish and finished with a combined 32 points in 66 games between the two teams.

The following season, in 2003–04, he returned to the South Division, signed by the Vancouver Canucks' ECHL affiliate, the Columbia Inferno and improved to 29 goals and 73 points, second in team scoring to league scoring champion Tim Smith. During the season, he was named to the 2004 ECHL All-Star Game for the Eastern Conference and recorded one assist. Following the competition, the Peoria Journal-Star, a local newspaper of the All-Star Game host city, conducted a survey of the NHL scouts in attendance and listed Burrows as one of the top four prospects at the game. Early in Burrows' All-Star season with Columbia, he was also signed by their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Manitoba Moose on October 21, 2003, and debuted in 2 AHL games for them before being sent back down to the ECHL.
