Canucks' Joseph LaBate: Pots pair in minor-league win
LaBate scored two goals in AHL Abbotsford's 4-2 win over Henderson on Saturday.
LaBate is a journeyman forward, and that journey has come full circle in British Columbia. He was drafted in the fourth round in 2011 by the Canucks, and he's back with the organization to provide veteran depth for the farm team. LaBate had just 21 points in 51 regular-season outings for AHL Cleveland in 2024-25, though he also picked up an assist in six outings with the Blue Jackets after an eight-year gap between NHL appearances. Given the Canucks' mediocre forward depth in the NHL, LaBate could get a call-up this season.

Canucks' Brock Boeser: Pots lone goal in loss
Boeser scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers.
Boeser has opened the campaign with two goals, four shots and a plus-1 rating over two games. The 28-year-old winger has looked good in a top-line role despite some early-season struggles from Elias Pettersson. Boeser is talented enough to create his own offense and will likely remain productive throughout 2025-26 as one of the Canucks' most reliable forwards.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Gets little help in loss
Demko allowed two goals on 36 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers. The third goal was an empty-netter.
Demko was left out to dry by his teammates, as the Oilers outshot the Canucks 37-15. The 29-year-old netminder has looked good to start 2025-26, allowing just three goals on 54 shots while going 1-1-0 in his first two starts. Demko could get the nod again at home Monday versus the Blues, who are coming off a 4-2 win over the Flames on Saturday.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Tending twine in Edmonton
Demko will guard the road goal against the Oilers on Saturday, Ben Kuzma of Postmedia reports.
Demko made 17 saves in a 5-1 win over Calgary on Thursday to open the 2025-26 campaign. During the 2024-25 regular season, he posted a 1-1-0 record versus Edmonton while stopping 41 of 49 shots.

Canucks' Braeden Cootes: Gets into first NHL game
Cootes made his NHL debut in Thursday's 5-1 win over Calgary.
Cootes had an impressive 2:40 of power-play ice time, but he logged a modest 11:14 overall. He also finished the game with a hit and a minus-1 rating. The 18-year-old is probably in the midst of a nine-game audition with Vancouver. If he doesn't make a sufficient impression by the end of that stretch, then the Canucks will likely loan Cootes back to WHL Seattle for additional seasoning.

Canucks' Kieren Dervin: Nets pair of goals in OHL loss
Dervin scored two goals on four shots in OHL Kingston's 4-2 loss to Peterborough.
This is Dervin's first full OHL campaign, and he's up to four goals and two assists in five games. The 18-year-old was selected in the third round (65th overall) in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. It's encouraging to see his offense step up, but the creative center is likely three-plus years away from being an NHL option for the Canucks.

Canucks' Drew O'Connor: Manages helper in win
O'Connor supplied an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
O'Connor is getting a chance in a fourth-line role to begin the season, as Nils Hoglander (lower body) and Teddy Blueger (undisclosed) are out of action. The 27-year-old O'Connor put up 25 points over 84 appearances between the Canucks and the Penguins last year. He's a decent defensive forward who can kill penalties effectively, but his ceiling is likely around 30 points, and he doesn't chip in enough hits or PIM to make up for his limited offense.

Canucks' Arshdeep Bains: Generates assist Thursday
Bains notched an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Bains set up the second of Filip Chytil's goals in the contest. The two have started the year on the Canucks' second line alongside Conor Garland. It's not a particularly notable trio, but it's encouraging for Bains that he's seeing middle-six minutes. He's a tough customer, but fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting the 24-year-old to produce much offense -- prior to Thursday, he had just one goal, 12 shots and 24 hits over his first 21 NHL appearances across the last two seasons.

Canucks' Jonathan Lekkerimaki: Deposits goal Thursday
Lekkerimaki scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Lekkerimaki stretched the Canucks' lead to 4-0 in the third period. The 21-year-old winger is getting the chance to fill a middle-six role from the start in 2025-26 after posting six points and averaging 12:30 of ice time over 24 games at the NHL level last year. He's off to a positive start, but he'll need to produce sustained offense to avoid getting sent back to AHL Abbotsford at some point this season.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Lights lamp in season-opening win
Sherwood scored a goal on two shots, levied six hits and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Sherwood opened the scoring at 14:53 of the first period off a feed from Drew O'Connor. The 30-year-old Sherwood broke out to the tune of 19 goals and 40 points over 78 games in 2024-25, as well as an NHL-record 462 hits -- that's 5.9 hits per game. While fantasy managers can find similar scoring production all over the waiver wire, Sherwood's elite physicality sets him apart in formats that count hits. Don't sleep on him if he continues to chip in a point every other game.

Canucks' Brock Boeser: Pads lead late in win
Boeser scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Boeser had the Canucks' fifth goal of the game, answering a Morgan Frost tally in the third period. The 28-year-old Boeser elected to stay with the Canucks on a seven-year contract after posting a bit of a down year with 25 goals and 50 points over 75 outings in 2024-25. The winger had 40 goals and 73 points in 2023-24, but his most likely outcomes fall between those two marks. He has 30-goal, 60-point potential if he's healthy for the full year, and he should be a fixture in the top six and on the first power-play unit.

Canucks' Filip Chytil: Pots pair of goals
Chytil scored twice on five shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Chytil's first goal came from a fortunate bounce, and he buried a pass from Arshdeep Bains a few minutes later as part of a four-goal third period for the Canucks. This was a positive start for Chytil, who is possibly miscast as a second-line center -- though he's currently the best option for the job in Vancouver. Last year, he put up 26 points over 56 regular-season outings between the Canucks and the Rangers. A strong performance in 2025-26 could allow Chytil to stay on the second line, though center depth is the most glaring need for the team to address even if he plays well.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Cruises to win Thursday
Demko stopped 17 of 18 shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Demko didn't face much of a challenge against a Flames team on the second half of a back-to-back. The Canucks still had a thin lead for the much of the first two periods before pulling away in the third. Demko is set to operate as the starter in 2025-26, though any slump could open the door for Kevin Lankinen to get some playing time. The Canucks will hit the road for the first time for their next game, which is a tough test Saturday in Edmonton.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Expected to face Calgary
Demko is set to start at home against Calgary on Thursday, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
Demko underwhelmed in 2024-25 with a 10-8-3 record, 2.90 GAA and .889 save percentage in 23 outings, but injury issues were a major factor. Unlike last year, he's healthy going into this season. Demko is a prime candidate for a bounce-back campaign.

Canucks' Teddy Blueger: Set to miss some time
Blueger is contending with an undisclosed injury and won't be available for at least the first three games of the 2025-26 season, per Ben Kuzma of Postmedia on Tuesday.
Blueger was injured in Friday's preseason game versus the Oilers, and general manager Patrik Allvin said Tuesday that the 31-year-old forward is expected to be out "another week." With that update in mind, Blueger shouldn't be expected to return to the lineup until Oct. 16 in Dallas at the earliest. The 2012 second-round pick appeared in all 82 games in 2024-25, chipping in eight goals and 26 points.
