Impact The helper was Friedman's first point in seven outings since he was traded from the Penguins to the Canucks.

In addition to the helper, he had seven hits, 12 blocked shots, nine PIM and a plus-4 rating.

Conor Garland - Grabs helper in blowout win Garland posted an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Garland ended a four-game point drought when he set up the second of Anthony Beauvillier's two goals in the game, which was the Canucks' 10th tally. After beginning the season in a top-six role, Garland has dropped to the third line. He's at one goal, two helpers, 15 shots on net, seven hits and a plus-2 rating through 10 contests.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Carson Soucy - Registers two assists Soucy notched two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Soucy set up an Ilya Mikheyev goal early in the second period as well as Anthony Beauvillier's power-play goal in the third. This was Soucy's first multi-point effort of the campaign. The 29-year-old defenseman has two goals, two assists, eight shots on net, 10 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over eight contests. He's played in a bottom-four role, but he's performed well while adjusting to a new team.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Filip Hronek - Notches pair of helpers Hronek recorded two assists and three shots on goal in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Hronek reached the 10-assist mark Thursday, setting up Quinn Hughes in the first period and Anthony Beauvillier on the power play in the third. With seven helpers over his last five games. Hronek has settled in nicely on the Canucks' top pairing and second power-play unit. The 26-year-old has yet to score a goal in 10 contests, but he's added 21 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, seven hits, eight PIM and a plus-9 rating.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Elias Pettersson - Distributes trio of helpers Pettersson picked up three assists and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Pettersson set up Brock Boeser on the opening goal and then helped out on tallies by his linemates, Ilya Mikheyev and Andrei Kuzmenko, in the second. This was Pettersson's second three-point game in a row after his hat trick versus the Predators on Tuesday. The 24-year-old center is playing at a superstar level with five goals, 14 helpers, 21 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-9 rating through 10 appearances.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Pius Suter - Gets first goal with new team Suter scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Suter's goal late in the third period was his first point as a Canucks. He ended up leading the team's forwards with 19:42 of ice time in the blowout win, as head coach Rick Tocchet rested the bigger names late. Suter has added just 10 shots on net, eight hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating so far. He's seeing some time on the second power-play unit and the third line, but he's a non-factor in fantasy until he can generate more consistent offense.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Sam Lafferty - Contributes two points Lafferty scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Lafferty is warming up again with three points over his last two games. This was the forward's first multi-point effort of the season. The 28-year-old has three goals, two assists, 14 shots on net, 13 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 10 appearances. He's been steady in a bottom-six role, and he could chip in enough offense to draw interest in deep fantasy formats.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Andrei Kuzmenko - Two-point effort Thursday Kuzmenko scored a goal on three shots, added a power-play assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Kuzmenko set up the second of Brock Boeser's goals in the first period before scoring one of his own in the middle frame. This was Kuzmenko's second multi-point effort of the season, and he's managed two goals and five helpers over his last six games. Overall, the 27-year-old winger has three tallies, six helpers, 19 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 10 contests while filling a top-six role.
NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ilya Mikheyev - Pots goal in big win Mikheyev scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Mikheyev's tally in the second period stretched the Canucks' lead to 5-0. The winger continues to provide solid supporting offense in a top-line role. He's at three goals, two assists, 18 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through six appearances. Mikheyev won't add much physicality, but with the Canucks boasting a strong top six, he could shatter his career high of 32 points if he stays healthy.
