Joseph accounted for one goal, five assists, 22 shots on net, 28 blocked shots and 18 hits in 31 appearances with Vancouver in the 2025-26 regular season. He will compete for a depth role with Carolina during training camp ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Won't get qualifying offer
Joseph won't receive a qualifying offer from Vancouver on Monday, Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK reports.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Nabs first helper since return
Joseph logged an assist, three hits and two PIM in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Mammoth.
Joseph has played in six of seven games since he returned from an upper-body injury that cost him nearly three weeks. The 26-year-old defenseman will likely close out the campaign in a third-pairing role, offering minimal fantasy upside. He's picked up six points, 21 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, 18 hits and a minus-16 rating across 30 outings this season.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Removed from IR
Joseph (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.
After missing the past eight games, Joseph will be available to return to the lineup against St. Louis on Saturday. He has provided one goal, four assists, 18 shots on net and 10 blocked shots across 24 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Could return over weekend
Head coach Adam Foote said Thursday that Joseph (upper body) is improving and is a possibility for Saturday's game against the Blues, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports.
Although Joseph will miss an eighth consecutive game Thursday against the Lightning, he's trending in the right direction. Even if he's ultimately sidelined Saturday against St. Louis, it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to game action sometime next week. Over 12 appearances since the start of the calendar year, he's recorded a goal, three assists, nine blocked shots and three hits while averaging 14:35 of ice time.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Facing 2-3 week absence
Joseph (upper body) is expected to be sidelined for 2-3 weeks, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports Wednesday.
Joseph was already placed on injured reserve Tuesday, so his recovery timeline doesn't come as a significant shock. With Tyler Myers shipped off to Dallas and Joseph unavailable, Victor Mancini will step into the lineup on the third pairing. Even once cleared to play, Joseph is far from a lock to suit up every night.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Moves to IR
Joseph (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Joseph will miss at least the next four games, starting with Wednesday's matchup against Carolina, after landing on the IR list. However, a timeline for his return to the lineup is unclear. Joseph has one goal, four assists, 18 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and eight hits in 24 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Undergoing further evaluation
Joseph is still being evaluated for an undisclosed injury ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Carolina, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
Joseph has seen an uptick in ice time while Tyler Myers is being held out of the lineup for trade considerations. According to head coach Adam Foote, if Joseph can't play Wednesday, the team will bring a blueliner, perhaps Victor Mancini, from the minors rather than putting Myers back into the lineup.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Departs Monday's game
Joseph (undisclosed) exited Monday's 6-1 loss to the Stars in the third period and did not come back into the game.
The Canucks did not relay why Joseph departed the game, which leaves him with an undisclosed injury tag. If the left-shot blueliner is unable to play Wednesday against the Hurricanes, Vancouver will almost certainly bring up a defenseman from AHL Abbotsford.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Rare goal in loss
Joseph scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Joseph has a goal and an assist over his last three games. The defenseman is seeing steady bottom-four usage in the absence of Zeev Buium (face). If Buium isn't ready to return following the Olympic break, expect Joseph to stick in the lineup a bit longer, but he'll likely slip back into a part-time role once the Canucks are fully healthy. Joseph has a goal, three assists, 17 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating through 21 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Gets on scoresheet with assist
Joseph notched an assist in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Canadiens.
Joseph has been in a part-time role lately, playing in four of the last seven games. That's an upgrade from most of December, when he was often in the press box, but he should have a clearer path to playing time as long as Elias Pettersson is in the AHL. Joseph has just two helpers, 10 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 15 appearances this season, so fantasy managers can look elsewhere for defensive depth, especially since he's still not a lock to stay in the lineup.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Participates in morning skate
Joseph (illness) was on the ice for Monday's morning skate, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Following a two-game absence due to illness, Joseph is poised to be a healthy scratch for Monday's matchup against Detroit. He has produced one assist, 10 shots on goal, eight blocked shots and four hits in 11 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Unavailable Saturday
Joseph (illness) will miss Saturday's game against Minnesota, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
Joseph was also absent from Friday's 4-1 loss to Utah. He has an assist in 11 outings this season. Joseph will be an option for the third pairing once he's healthy, but he probably won't play regularly.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Won't play Friday
Joseph (illness) is not expected to be available to face Utah on Friday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Joseph was unavailable to practice Thursday due to his illness and will now be on the shelf for Friday's matchup. In the 26-year-old blueliner's 11 outings this year, he has failed to find the back of the net, earning one helper, 10 shots and four hits. Joseph will face a tough turnaround to be ready to square off with Minnesota in the second game of the back-to-back Saturday.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Misses practice Thursday
Joseph (flu) missed practice Thursday, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
Joseph should be considered questionable ahead of Friday's tilt in Utah. The 26-year-old blueliner has one assist in 11 games this season. The Canucks recalled defenseman Elias Pettersson from AHL Abbotsford on Thursday in case Joseph is unable to play.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Gets first helper of season
Joseph notched an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Blackhawks.
Joseph was scratched Monday against the Predators, but he replaced Elias Pettersson in the lineup for Wednesday's contest. The helper was Joseph's first point in eight appearances this season. He's added seven blocked shots, three hits, nine shots on net and a minus-2 rating while primarily playing on the third pairing.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Activated from injured reserve
Joseph (undisclosed) was activated from injured reserve Thursday.
Joseph missed the start of the regular season due to an undisclosed injury and was seen skating in a non-contact jersey during Tuesday's practice, but he's healthy enough to be activated off injured reserve. Now that he's back to full health, he could push Elias Pettersson for a bottom-four role in the Canucks' lineup.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Participating in Tuesday's practice
Joseph (undisclosed) sported a non-contact jersey during Tuesday's practice, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
Head coach Adam Foote said Oct. 2 that Joseph's undisclosed issue is a minor one, so the defenseman shouldn't be too far off from moving past his injury. It remains to be seen if the 26-year-old will be an extra defenseman once he returns to full strength, but he could challenge Elias Pettersson for a bottom-four role in the lineup.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Shifts to IR
Joseph (undisclosed) was moved to injured reserve Tuesday.
Joseph is retroactive to Sept. 30, meaning he can be activated whenever he is ready to return. Still, it's unclear when he will receive clearance to play. The Canucks recalled Victor Mancini from AHL Abbotsford on Tuesday to replace Joseph on the roster.

Canucks' Pierre-Olivier Joseph: Dealing with minor injury
Head coach Adam Foote said Thursday that Joseph is dealing with a minor injury and isn't expected to play in Friday's preseason finale against Edmonton, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
While the exact nature of Joseph's injury isn't yet clear, it's encouraging that Foote downplayed the severity of the issue. However, it's not yet clear whether Joseph will be available for the start of the regular season.
