This season, he's at eight points, 17 shots on net, 21 hits, 11 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 15 contests.

Filip Hronek - Bags apple in lossHronek had an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.

ImpactHronek has picked up four points over six games in November. He's found a better scoring pace this month after being limited to just two helpers in October. Overall, the defenseman has a goal, five assists, 17 shots on net, 28 hits, 14 PIM, 14 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 15 appearances in his usual top-pairing role.

J.T. Miller - Lends helper ThursdayMiller posted an assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.

ImpactMiller set up rookie Jonathan Lekkerimaki's first NHL tally at 2:40 of the first period. This gave Miller a goal and four helpers over his last five contests as he continues to offer steady offense in a top-six role. For the season, the 31-year-old has five goals, nine helpers, 31 shots on net, 26 hits, nine PIM and a plus-1 rating through 15 appearances.

Tyler Myers - Scores late in lossMyers scored a goal on two shots and blocked four shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.

ImpactMyers scored after the Islanders took a four-goal lead with an empty-netter. While his tally had no impact on the game, it snapped his seven-game drought on offense. The 34-year-old defenseman has been limited to three points while adding 15 shots on net, 15 hits, 26 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 15 outings. Myers offers decent non-scoring production, but he'd need to do a little more on offense for widespread fantasy appeal.

Jonathan Lekkerimaki - Scores first NHL goalLekkerimaki scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.

ImpactLekkerimaki gave the Canucks a positive start with his first-period tally, but they struggled to generate many looks over the first 40 minutes. This was his first NHL goal in just his second appearance, and he's added five shots on net, two hits, two PIM and a minus-1 rating. Lekkerimaki will likely continue to get a look at least as long as Brock Boeser (upper body) is out of action.

Kevin Lankinen - Yields four goals in lossLankinen stopped 27 of 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

ImpactThe Canucks were listless through two periods before finding a bit more juice in the third. The damage had already been done, and Lankinen ended up on the hook for his second regulation loss in three games. The 29-year-old is 8-2-2 on the year while posting a 2.60 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 12 contests, but he's started to turn inconsistent amid his heavy workload early in the season. Arturs Silovs hasn't put in a competitive effort in the backup role, so Lankinen is likely to continue starting regularly. Both goalies should feature during this weekend's back-to-back as the Canucks host the Blackhawks on Saturday and the Predators on Sunday.

Oliver Wahlstrom - Hands out helperWahlstrom recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

ImpactWahlstrom has earned two points over his last four outings, accounting for all of his offense this season. It's been enough to keep him in the lineup for seven straight games as he fends off a playing-time challenge from Hudson Fasching. Wahlstrom has added 13 shots on net, seven PIM and a minus-5 rating over 13 appearances this season. Fantasy managers can look elsewhere for depth scoring since he is averaging just 9:45 of ice time per game.
