If you have an expired visa, it is better not to travel even if you have a job offer (particularly in this economic situation).  Note that your EAD is not for reentry. I am not a lawyer though.

Happy 2009, If your I-20 is current and signed by your international advisor, you can re enter US within 30 days of Canada Visit, though you VISA expire. I am 100% confident about this rule, because I went through the same process. Good Luck.

One more thing go before you graduate. I do not suggest you to go to canada after your graduation.
