Suter logged an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Suter has mostly been a scorer this season, but he set up J.T. Miller for an empty-netter in this contest. The 28-year-old Suter has three points over his last four games and continues to fill a top-six role. The forward is up to six goals, two helpers, 27 shots on net, 11 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 15 outings. As long as he's seeing premium minutes at even strength, Suter will be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats that focus on scoring.

Rotowire
Suter scored a goal on four shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.
Suter has scored in back-to-back games and has four tallies over five contests in November. The 28-year-old forward's goal Tuesday was the game-winner. He's seeing top-line minutes alongside J.T. Miller, which gives Suter decent fantasy value as long as he lasts in that spot. Suter has six goals, one assist, 26 shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-1 rating across 13 appearances.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Power-play marker in loss
Rotowire
Suter scored a power-play goal on four shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Oilers.
Suter's goal was too late to make a difference Saturday, but he has now scored five times over the last eight contests. The 28-year-old is also on the power play now, replacing Brock Boeser (upper body), who was hurt Thursday versus the Kings. Suter's worth a look in fantasy with a larger role, which also includes top-six minutes at even strength. He has six points, 222 shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 12 outings this season.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Plays hero Saturday
Rotowire
Suter scored twice on three shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.
Suter has scored four times over the last five games. He played a big role Saturday, tying the game at 1-1 in the second period before scoring the game-winner with just 26 seconds left in the third. The 28-year-old forward has mainly filled a bottom-six role this season, earning five points, 15 shots on net, eight hits and an even plus-minus rating across nine outings. Suter looks likely to keep a steady spot in the lineup this season, but he's not a strong fantasy option since he's not a factor on the power play.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores in win Monday
Rotowire
Suter notched a goal, two penalty minutes, four shots and a hit in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
Suter has found the back of the net in two of his last three appearances, but he's not expected to have a lot of opportunities to produce as a fourth-line center. He might light the lamp here and there, but fantasy managers shouldn't trust in him to deliver sustained production going forward.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Deposits goal in win
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Blackhawks.
Suter got his first goal of the season in the third period. The 28-year-old forward has two points, five shots on net, five hits, two blocked shots and a minus-1 rating across five appearances. Suter is likely to remain in a bottom-six role throughout the year, and he'll need to keep the quality of his play up to avoid being an occasional healthy scratch.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Nabs helper in season debut
Rotowire
Suter posted an assist in Friday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Flyers.
Suter dealt with an upper-body injury to begin October, but it cost him only one regular-season contest. The 28-year-old played as a bottom-six winger Friday. He has experience at center, but the Canucks seem intent on giving rookie Aatu Raty some runway down the middle. Suter has finished between 24 and 36 points in all four of his NHL campaigns, so he doesn't offer much scoring upside, especially if he receives minimal power-play time.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Set to play Friday
Rotowire
Suter (upper body) will play against the Flyers on Friday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Suter sat out Wednesday's regular-season opener against Calgary after being considered a game-time decision, but he'll be able to make his season debut against Philadelphia. Over 67 regular-season appearances with the Canucks last year, he logged 14 goals and 29 points while averaging 15:30 of ice time.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Game-time call Wednesday
Rotowire
Suter (upper body) will be a game-time decision versus Calgary on Wednesday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.
Suter did some work in his usual third-line role in the lead-up to Wednesday's tilt, but it appears he isn't quite 100 percent. The 28-year-old center appeared in just 67 games last season due to injury but still managed to reach the 14-goal mark, a threshold he's reached in all four of his NHL campaigns, despite playing on three different teams in his short career. If he can't go, Aatu Raty will step into the lineup in Suter's stead.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Remains out Friday
Rotowire
Suter (upper body) won't play Friday versus the Oilers, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Suter will be out for the Canucks' preseason finale, putting his status for Wednesday's season opener in doubt as well. The 28-year-old forward's absence is at least partially offset by the return of Teddy Blueger (lower body), who will suit up Friday.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Dealing with upper-body issue
Rotowire
Suter is day-to-day after suffering an upper-body injury, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports Wednesday.
Suter has scored at least 14 goals in each of his four NHL seasons despite having played for three different teams over that stretch. If he can get back to 100 percent and avoid any injury stretches, he should be a near-lock to reach the 30-point threshold considering he fell one point shy of that mark last year despite logging just 67 regular-season appearances.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Registers helper in win
Rotowire
Suter logged an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.
Suter set up the second of Brock Boeser's tallies in the first period. Through nine playoff outings, Suter's scoring contributions have been rather limited -- he has two goals and one assist, along with 19 shots on net. The 27-year-old can handle top-six minutes, but he's unlikely to produce offense at that level on a regular basis, and he doesn't make up for it with physical play that would bolster his fantasy standing.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores in Friday's win
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal on five shots in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.
Suter's goal with 1:39 left in the third period was the only goal in the contest. That was also the series-clinching tally, setting up the Canucks for a second-round matchup with the Oilers. Suter scored twice on 14 shots and added six hits over six first-round appearances while filling a middle-six role. The 27-year-old is well regarded as a defensive forward, and he may be deployed in that nature frequently in the next round against a high-powered offense.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Offers helper Tuesday
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
Suter forced a turnover and sent J.T. Miller in on a breakaway for a third-period tally. With a goal and an assist over his last two games, Suter is finding a little more success on offense after a stretch where he had just one helper over 12 appearances. The 27-year-old forward is at 29 points, 103 shots on net, 53 hits and a plus-17 rating through 66 outings overall.

Suter scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Oilers.
Suter snapped a 12-game goal drought with his second-period tally off a feed from Tyler Myers. The 27-year-old Suter's scoring slump has seen him lose ice time lately, though he was listed on the second line for Saturday's contest. He's at 14 goals, 14 assists, 100 shots on net, 53 hits and a plus-16 rating through 65 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Produces two points in win
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal, dished an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Jets.
Suter set up Nils Hoglander at 13:47 of the first period before icing the cake with a goal of his own in the third. Suter got his first goal since his Jan. 24 hat trick versus the Blues, but he had a solid eight helpers over the 17 games between tallies. The 27-year-old is up to 13 goals, 13 assists, 83 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-18 rating over 52 appearances. Suter could draw some fantasy interest in deeper formats as long as he's seeing time on the top line at even strength.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Manages assist in loss
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Kraken.
Suter took a shot that pinballed in off Sam Lafferty for the Canucks' second goal. The helper was Suter's fourth over the last three games following a run of four contests without a point in the middle of the month. The 27-year-old forward is at 23 points, 74 shots on net, 31 hits and a plus-17 rating through 45 appearances. Suter lost his spot on the second line to Arshdeep Bains for this contest, but Suter is likely better suited to a top-six job in the long run.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Three helpers in defeat
Rotowire
Suter collected three assists during Monday's 10-7 loss to the Wild.
Prior to the three-point performance, Suter was held to just one point in his previous seven contests, which came after a hot streak of six points in a three-game span. He can be a streaky scorer, but playing in the top six gives him ample opportunity. Suter is up to 22 points in 43 appearances this season.

Suter helped out on two of Brock Boeser's three goals in the game. With four goals and two helpers over his last three contests, Suter has made the most of his move to the second line and first power-play unit. He has ample fantasy value in that role if he can maintain it. For the season, the 27-year-old forward has 12 goals, six helpers, 59 shots on net and a plus-12 rating over 35 outings.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Hat trick in overtime loss
Rotowire
Suter posted a hat trick in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.
Suter scored all three goals in the third period to help the Canucks salvage a standings point. He's mainly played on the third line this season, but he was bumped up to left wing alongside J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser on Wednesday, which sparked instant chemistry as Suter earned his second three-point effort of January. The 27-year-old is up to 12 tallies, 16 points, 56 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-13 rating through 34 appearances this season.
