Canucks' Tyler Myers: Gets on scoresheet with assist
Myers logged an assist, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The helper was Myers' first point over 10 outings in December, to go with 16 blocked shots, 10 PIM and eight hits this month. The 35-year-old defenseman continues to see top-four minutes and will likely be leaned on for shutdown usage when partnered with rookie Zeev Buium. Myers has eight points, 37 shots on net, 70 blocks, 43 hits, 28 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 36 contests this season.

Canucks' Max Sasson: Pots goal in loss
Sasson scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
Sasson has scored in consecutive contests and in three of his last six games. The 25-year-old is holding onto a bottom-six role for the Canucks, who are still missing multiple centers, though Sasson could move to the wing when the team is healthier. He's produced a decent eight goals, two assists, 34 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and 16 hits over 33 appearances this season.

Canucks' Drew O'Connor: Ends December drought
O'Connor scored his eighth goal of the season in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The 27-year-old snapped home a fairly meaningless tally for the Canucks with 18 seconds left in the game, but the goal did at least lift a weight off O'Connor's shoulders -- he'd been held off the scoresheet completely over the first nine games in December. On the season, O'Connor has produced 13 points in 36 games while skating in a bottom-six role with 42 shots on net, 30 hits, 17 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a minus-1 rating.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Grounded in Philly
Demko turned aside 34 of 38 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
After a scoreless first period, the Canucks' defense began to fall apart in the second, giving Demko little support as the home side built a 3-0 lead before Vancouver got on the board. It was the first time Demko had allowed more than three goals in a start since Nov. 3, and in five outings since returning from a lower-body injury, he's gone 3-2-0 with a dazzling 1.82 GAA and .929 save percentage.

Canucks' Elias Pettersson: Takes part in morning skate
Pettersson (upper body) participated in the morning skate but won't play against Philadelphia on Monday, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.
The Canucks hope to get Pettersson back shortly after the Christmas break, but an exact timeline for his return remains unclear. He will miss his eighth straight game versus the Flyers on Monday. Pettersson has produced eight goals, 22 points, 54 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and 28 hits across 28 appearances this season.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: First goalie off Monday
Demko was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, signaling that he'll draw the road start against Philadelphia.
Demko rested in the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday, but he'll return to the crease Monday for his fifth start in the Canucks' last six games. The 30-year-old has been stellar during a three-game winning streak, allowing just two goals on 72 shots in that span.

Canucks' Marco Rossi: First point with new team
Rossi logged an assist and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Bruins.
The helper was Rossi's first point in four outings with the Canucks since being dealt by Minnesota in the Quinn Hughes deal. The 24-year-old Rossi has added nine blocked shots, three shots on net and a minus-1 rating. He's occupying a first-line role, as he did with Minnesota, but that's where Vancouver needs him right now due to the absences of Elias Pettersson (upper body), Filip Chytil (upper body) and Teddy Blueger (lower body). Rossi has 14 points, 30 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 14 hits and a minus-7 rating over 21 appearances this season. He'll likely remain in the top six even when the Canucks are healthier.

Canucks' Max Sasson: Finds twine Saturday
Sasson scored a goal in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Bruins.
This was Sasson's first point in three games since he signed a two-year contract extension Monday. The 25-year-old has emerged as a valuable part of the Canucks' bottom six, though he hasn't produced a lot of offense. He's at seven goals, nine points, 32 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 16 hits and a plus-1 rating over 32 appearances this year.

Canucks' Liam Ohgren: Big game in shootout win
Ohgren scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added three hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Bruins.
Ohgren set up a Max Sasson goal late in the first period, then put the Canucks ahead 4-3 in the third. That lead didn't last, but Ohgren was tabbed for a seventh-round shootout attempt, and he converted the lone tally in the skills competition. The 21-year-old already has three points over four outings with the Canucks after failing to log a point in 18 games with the Wild before he was part of the return in the Quinn Hughes trade. Ohgren looks set for steady bottom-six minutes for a while, but fantasy managers can wait to see if this change of scenery pays off in the long run.

Canucks' Linus Karlsson: Three-point outing in shootout win
Karlsson scored twice on three shots, added an assist and logged three hits in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Bruins.
Karlsson's first goal came on the power play. He continues to see time on the second unit with the man advantage, but he's in a fourth-line spot at even strength. Karlsson has three goals and three helpers over nine outings in December. For the season, the 26-year-old has made the most of limited opportunities, earning seven goals, seven helpers, 48 shots on net, 42 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 32 appearances.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Keeps team in it in shootout win
Lankinen stopped 38 of 42 shots in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Bruins.
Lankinen was kept busy in this contest, but he was up to the challenge, doing enough to allow the Canucks to stay close. The 30-year-old then turned aside seven straight shootout attempts to pick up the win. Lankinen had gone 0-5-1 over his previous six outings, and this was his first victory since Nov. 16 versus the Lightning. The Finnish netminder is now 5-10-3 with a 3.51 GAA and an .880 save percentage over 18 appearances. Thatcher Demko is still likely to see a majority of the starts in goal moving forward. The Canucks' next game is Monday in Philadelphia.

Canucks' Marcus Pettersson: Manages helper in win
Pettersson logged an assist, three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
Pettersson has averaged 23:54 of ice time since the Quinn Hughes trade, compared to 20:28 per game before the deal went down. Pettersson has taken over the vacancy on the top pairing at even strength, though he's not in the mix for power-play usage. He has just six points, 25 shots on net, 20 hits, 56 blocked shots, 33 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 34 appearances, so it's unlikely the 29-year-old blueliner will be a strong option in most fantasy formats.

Canucks' Filip Hronek: Supplies two assists
Hronek logged two assists in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
Hronek had a hand in the last two goals of Kiefer Sherwood's hat trick. The 28-year-old Hronek now has three helpers over his last two games. He'll miss having the high-scoring Quinn Hughes as a defensive partner, but Hronek remains a key high-minutes defenseman who can make strong all-around contributions in fantasy. He's posted 19 points, 46 shots on net, 46 blocked shots, 61 hits and a plus-5 rating over 34 appearances this season.

Canucks' David Kampf: Nets opening goal
Kampf scored a goal in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
Kampf's marker was his first goal and point since he signed with the Canucks after parting ways with the Maple Leafs via contract termination in November. The 30-year-old has been pressed into significant usage, averaging 15:28 of ice time over 14 appearances, but his playing time will shrink as the Canucks get healthier. Kampf has added 11 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and 10 hits so far.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Scores hat trick
Sherwood scored a hat trick in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
Sherwood bagged two goals in the first period, including one on the power play, before completing the hat trick with an empty-netter in the final frame. This was Sherwood's second hat trick of the season, as he already achieved this mark against the Blues on Oct. 30. He has 16 goals on the season.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Records third straight win
Demko stopped 22 of 23 shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
Demko was excellent between the pipes and extended his sizzling run of play. Aside from notching three wins in a row, Demko has also allowed just two goals on 72 shots over that span -- good for an impressive .972 save percentage. He should come down to earth at some point, but Demko is worth riding while he's hot. Kevin Lankinen will play in the second half of Vancouver's back-to-back Saturday at Boston, but Demko could return to the crease in Monday's road game against the Flyers.
