Vancouver Canucks

Brock Boeser was able to light the lamp for the Canucks Thursday night, scoring two goals in a 4-3 loss to the Blues.

Fantasy Impact: Boeser is in the midst of a disappointing stretch in the offensive zone, picking up points in five of his last 11 games (four goals, four assists) for the Canucks. The winger has been one of the more stable options as part of an underwhelming Vancouver lineup, recording 43 points (22 goals, 21 assists) in 62 games so far this season.

Elias Pettersson tallied two assists in the Canucks' 4-3 loss to the Blues Thursday night.

Fantasy Impact: Pettersson has caught fire in the offensive zone, recording points in seven of his last eight games (four goals, six assists) for the Canucks. The center has been one of many frustrating options as part of an inconsistent Vancouver lineup, posting 45 points (15 goals, 30 assists) in 63 games so far this season.

Quinn Hughes posted one assist in the Canucks' 4-3 loss to the Blues Thursday night.

Fantasy Impact: Hughes continues a dynamic stretch in the offensive zone, notching points in six of his last eight games (two goals, five assists) for the Canucks. The defenseman continues to provide fantasy managers with an elite offensive blueline option in all formats, posting a 1.20 point per game average (16 goals, 50 assists) in 55 games so far this season.

Conor Garland tallied two points for the Canucks Saturday night, scoring one goal and picking up one assist in a 6-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Fantasy Impact: Garland continues an inconsistent stretch in the offensive zone, notching points in five of his last nine games (three goals, four assists) for the Canucks. The winger has been one of the more stable offensive options as part of a frustrating Vancouver lineup, recording 41 points (17 goals, 24 assists) in 66 games so far this season.

Jake DeBrusk was able to light the lamp for the Canucks Wednesday night, scoring one goal in a 3-2 win over the Ducks.

Fantasy Impact: DeBrusk continues an inconsistent stretch in the offensive zone, collecting points in four of his last nine games (four goals, one assist) for the Canucks. The winger remains one of many disappointing options as part of an inconsistent Vancouver lineup, picking up 36 points (22 goals, 14 assists) in 61 games so far this season.

Filip Chytil posted one assist in the Canucks' 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs Saturday night.

Fantasy Impact: Chytil has heated up in the offensive zone since arriving in Vancouver, recording points in three of four games (one goal, two assists) for the Canucks. The center will look to offer a more stable option than fantasy managers saw in New York, picking up 23 points (12 goals, 11 assists) in 45 games so far this season.

Drew O'Connor was able to find the back of the net for the Canucks Thursday night, scoring one goal in a 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks.

Fantasy Impact: O'Connor has heated up in the offensive zone since arriving from Pittsburgh, collecting points in two of three games (two goals) for the Canucks. The winger should receive increased opportunities with more ice time as part of an underperforming Vancouver lineup, recording 18 points (eight goals, 10 assists) in 56 games so far this season.

Thatcher Demko was stellar in the crease for the Canucks Tuesday night, stopping all 25 shots faced in a 3-0 win over the Avalanche.

Fantasy Impact: Demko continues an inconsistent stretch in net, allowing three or more goals in four of his last eight starts (3-5-0) for the Canucks. The goaltender has struggled to offer fantasy managers the difference-making netminder they were hoping for playing behind an underperforming Vancouver lineup, carrying a 3.03 GAA and .882 save percentage in 15 starts (5-6-3, one shutout) in goal so far this season.

J.T. Miller was able to light the lamp for the Rangers Saturday, scoring two goals in a 6-3 loss to the Bruins.

Fantasy Impact: Miller has heated up in the offensive zone of late, registering points in six of his last seven games (three goals, five assists). The winger will look to provide an underperforming New York lineup with an offensive spark after being acquired from Vancouver, tallying 37 points (11 goals, 26 assists) in 41 games so far this season.

Kevin Lankinen allowed three goals on 29 shots faced in the Canucks' 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild Tuesday night.

Fantasy Impact: Lankinen has not been a reliable option between the pipes of late, allowing three or more goals in six of his last seven starts (4-2-1) for the Canucks. The 29-year-old will look to return to his early-season form in the crease for fantasy managers, carrying a 2.66 GAA and .906 save percentage in 18 starts (12-3-3, two shutouts) in goal so far this season.

Arturs Silovs stopped 23-of-26 shots during a 4-1 loss in Tampa Bay.

Fantasy Impact: Silvos and Kevin Lankinen will likely share the goaltending duties for the Canucks since Thatcher Demko was placed on the non-roster injured reserve list with a lower-body injury. Silovs has made 11 career NHL starts in three seasons posting a combined 6-3-2 record with a 2.96 GAA and .885 SV%.

Casey DeSmith struggled in net for the Canucks Saturday, allowing four goals on 28 shots faced in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Red Wings Saturday.

Fantasy Impact: DeSmith has struggled in limited action in the crease of late, allowing three or more goals in four of his last five starts (1-1-3) for the Canucks. The veteran netminder has fought consistency issues while serving as the backup to No.1 netminder Thatcher Demko for head coach Rick Tocchet, posting a 2.74 GAA and .908 save percentage in 16 appearances (7-3-5) so far this season.

Filip Hronek posted three points for the Canucks Saturday, scoring one goal and picking up two assists in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Red Wings.

Fantasy Impact: Hronek has struggled to make much of an impact in the offensive zone of late, picking up points in just one of his last 10 games (one goal, two assists) for the Canucks. The blueliner will look to break out of his recent struggles and return to his early-season form in lineups for fantasy managers, notching 39 points (four goals, 35 assists) to go along with 46 hits and a +34 plus/minus in 52 games so far this season.

Fantasy Impact: Horvat gives an immediate boost to an Islanders squad that has struggled to produce consistent offense in front of all-world netminder Ilya Sorokin as the club pushes for a postseason berth. The 27-year-old superstar has been strong to this point for fantasy owners, posting a 1.10 point per game average (31 goals, 23 assists) in 49 games so far this season.

Colin Delia was solid in net for the Canucks Friday night, stopping 24 of 26 shots faced in a 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Fantasy Impact: Delia has allowed three goals or less in four of his last five appearances (3-1-0) for the Canucks, posting a .910 save percentage in that span. The 28-year-old netminder is an intriguing option until No. 1 goaltender Thatcher Demko returns from injury, posting a 2.94 GAA and .898 save percentage in 11 appearances (6-3-0) in the crease so far this season.

Spencer Martin struggled between the pipes for the Canucks Wednesday night, allowing six goals on 35 shots faced in a 6-1 loss to the Kraken.

Fantasy Impact: Martin has struggled in the crease of late for the Canucks, allowing three or more goals in each of his last eight starts (0-8-0, .822 save percentage) for the club. The 27-year-old netminder is not a worthwhile option for fantasy owners at this point, carrying an abysmal 3.94 GAA and .875 save percentage in 27 appearances (11-13-1) in net so far this season.

Andrei Kuzmenko was able to find the back of the net for the Canucks Tuesday night, scoring two goals in a 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Fantasy Impact: Kuzmenko has been strong in the offensive zone of late for the Canucks, scoring six goals and picking up five assists over his last 10 games for the club. The 26-year-old has been a fairly steady option on a disappointing Vancouver squad to this point, posting 43 points (21 goals, 22 assists) in 46 games so far this season.

Fantasy Impact: After spending parts of 10 seasons with the Detroit Red Wings, Dekeyser latched on with the Canucks via a PTO on Sept. 9. A former hot commodity out of college, Dekeyser's game never materialized into fantasy relevance but he could garner further NHL interest given his experience.

Ilya Mikheyev suffered a lower-body injury in a Sept. 25 exhibition game against the Calgary Flames. Head coach Bruce Boudreau said the ailment would keep the winger out "week to week." (Source: Ben Kuzma on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: This is not welcomed news for a player coming off a career year last season with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Mikheyev erupted for career highs in goals (21), points (32), and shots on goal (147) a season ago. Opening night still appears to be in play but we should know closer to the Canucks' regular-season opener on Oct. 12 against the Edmonton Oilers.

Pearson scored a second period goal of the Canucks 5-1 win over the Golden Knights.

Fantasy Impact: Vancouver's winger ended a lengthy goalless streak with that second period tally, he's up to 34 points (14 goals, 20 assists) in 67 games this season.
