Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Lights lamp again

Miller (personal) away from the team. Sherwood has five goals, 10 points, 38 shots on net, 115 hits and a plus-4 rating over 18 appearances.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Throws body around in win
Kiefer Sherwood scored a goal on five shots, doled out nine hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.Sherwood has two points and 19 hits over his last two games. The 29-year-old winger brings a physical edge in a bottom-six role, but it's impressive he's logged such high hit totals in a pair of games away from home -- official hit counts tend to be more favorable in a player's home arena. Sherwood could produce offense around the same pace as the 27 points he had in 68 regular-season contests last year. If his hit totals continue to be lofty, he could push for 300-plus in 2024-25, which gives him another path to fantasy relevance despite modest scoring.
