Canucks' Brock Boeser: Collects helper
Boeser registered an assist in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Boeser has four goals and an assist over his last three games, following a span in which he had just one helper over five contests. The 26-year-old winger is at 17 tallies, 27 points, 66 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 24 appearances this season. Boeser probably won't shoot 25.8 percent over the full campaign, but his top-six spot in a strong offense should allow him to sustain a career year.

Canucks' J.T. Miller: Registers helper in loss
Miller produced an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Miller set up Andrei Kuzmenko's tally in the third period, which was all the Canucks could put on the scoreboard. With six assists over his last three games, Miller has eased the concern over his season-worst four-game goal drought. The 30-year-old has played a starring role in a strong offense with 36 points, 56 shots on net, 49 hits, 19 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 24 appearances this season.

Canucks' Andrei Kuzmenko: Deposits only goal in loss
Kuzmenko scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Kuzmenko has had an eventful week or so -- he was scratched twice and endured a four-game point drought before his goal Thursday. The 27-year-old winger ended the contest with 17:27 of ice time, his highest mark of November, and the goal has to help in regards to getting out of head coach Rick Tocchet's doghouse. Kuzmenko is up to four tallies, 15 points, 32 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 21 contests. Given his scoring capabilities, fantasy managers would be shrewd to check to see if an impatient rival cut ties with the winger during his recent stint in the press box.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Under siege against Vegas
Demko stopped 40 of 44 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Vegas doubled up Vancouver in shots, and Demko wasn't able to be the difference in this contest. He's allowed 15 goals over his last six games, giving up exactly four goals in each of his three losses in that span. The American netminder slipped to 11-6-0 with a 2.22 GAA and a .926 save percentage through 17 contests. The Canucks' next game is in Calgary on Saturday.

Canucks' Nikita Zadorov: Dealt to Vancouver
Zadorov was traded from the Flames to the Canucks on Thursday in exchange for a fifth-round pick in 2024 and a third-round pick in 2026.
Zadorov reportedly wanted a trade out of Calgary, where he's been stuck in a bottom-four role this year, and now he's gotten his wish. He'll land in an excellent situation with the Canucks, where he can be penciled into a second-pairing role once he joins the team. Zadorov has picked up six points, 29 shots on net, 41 hits, 19 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 21 outings with the Flames this year, which was his third season with the team. Jordan Oesterle should see more time with the Flames going forward, while Mark Friedman and Noah Juulsen figure to lose playing time for the Canucks.

Canucks' Ilya Mikheyev: Will play Thursday
Mikheyev (lower body) will be in action versus Vegas on Thursday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Mikheyev was forced to leave Tuesday's tilt with the Ducks after registering just 13:20 of ice time but appears to be no worse for the wear. The 29-year-old winger is on pace to reach the 40-point threshold for the first time in his career. Despite zero power-play points, Mikheyev continues to see minutes with the No. 2 unit.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: In goal against Knights
Demko will get the starting nod at home versus Vegas on Thursday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Demko has been performing well lately with a 3-1-0 record and 1.75 GAA in his last four contests. Historically, the netminder has struggled against the Golden Knights, going 2-3-1 with an .891 save percentage and 3.71 GAA in seven career matchups. Still, Demko is sporting career-best numbers in GAA (2.10) and save percentage (.928) this season, so he may fare better this time around.

Hronek recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Ducks.

He's added 28 blocked shots, 50 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-14 rating, providing solid category coverage for fantasy managers.

He's on pace for a career year, which could see him top the 100-point mark for the first time if he can sustain his offense throughout the campaign.
