Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Win for Finns on Saturday
Lankinen made 21 saves in Finland's 4-3 overtime victory over Sweden on Saturday at the 4 Nations Face-Off in Montreal.
In his first start at the tournament after backing up Juuse Saros in a 6-1 loss to the United States on Thursday, Lankinen looked as sharp as he has in Vancouver's net this season. It wouldn't be surprising if Lankinen played again against Canada on Monday afternoon in Boston. The Finnish net probably belongs to him now.

Canucks' Tom Willander: Plucking apples
Willander has six assists in his last five games with Boston University.
Willander has two goals and 18 points through 27 NCAA appearances this season. The 20-year-old blueliner should surpass his 25-point freshman campaign from 2023-24, but he has been hot and cold offensively during his second college season. Vancouver chose Willander with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Starting Saturday versus Sweden
Lankinen will defend the road crease versus Sweden on Saturday in Finland's second game of the 4 Nations Face-Off, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
Saturday's matchup is a big game for both teams as Sweden lost a 4-3 overtime decision to Canada on Wednesday, while the Finns were defeated 6-1 by the United States on Thursday. Lankinen has sparkled this season in the Vancouver cage, going 19-8-7 with four shutouts, a 2.53 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 34 appearances.

Canucks' Quinn Hughes: Sitting out 4 Nations Face-Off
Hughes (oblique) will not participate in the 4 Nations Face-Off, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic on Sunday.
Hughes will be replaced by Ottawa's Jake Sanderson in the upcoming tournament, which begins Wednesday. While the all-world blueliner's skillset is irreplaceable, Sanderson's blend of elite skating and puck-moving ability will help soften the blow of Hughes' absence. Hughes' next chance to return to game action will be Feb. 22, when the Canucks resume play against the Golden Knights.

Canucks' Derek Forbort: Logs helper in win
Forbort notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.
Forbort has two helpers over his last six outings. The 32-year-old has seen a larger role during the absence of Quinn Hughes (undisclosed). Forbort is still a defense-first blueliner at heart, so he isn't expected to be a big factor on offense most of the time. For the season, he's produced five helpers, 23 shots on net, 42 blocked shots and 28 PIM across 29 appearances, surpassing his point total (four) from 35 contests in the 2023-24 regular season.

Canucks' Elias Pettersson: Grabs apple in win
Pettersson notched an assist and three blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.
Pettersson set up a Filip Hronek tally in the first period. The assist was Pettersson's first point over four contests in February. The 26-year-old center has just 34 points with 92 shots on net, 46 hits, 60 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 49 outings in a frustrating 2024-25 campaign. He'll play for Sweden at the 4 Nations Face-Off, and maybe he'll be able to build up some momentum in international play to fuel a strong finish to his NHL season.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Brilliant in relief
Lankinen made 21 saves on 22 shots in relief in a 2-1 win over Toronto on Saturday.
Thatcher Demko (undisclosed) left the game midway through the first period, and Lankinen stepped into the blue paint and excelled. Lankinen was especially great late, making a sprawling glove save on Auston Matthews on a power play with under two minutes to play to preserve the lead and win. Lankinen's success this season has given him a role for Team Finland at the 4 Nations Face-Off, which starts Wednesday. He's 19-8-7 with a 2.53 GAA and .905 save percentage heading into the tourney. There is no information on Demko's injury or potential absence.

Canucks' Brock Boeser: Nets winner on power play
Boeser scored the game-winning goal Saturday in a 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.
It came on the power play. Boeser cut through the slot, took a pass and shot low past the left pad of Joseph Woll, who was screened on the play. Boeser's 197th goal in the NHL moved him into a tie with Thomas Gradin for ninth in Canucks history. Boeser has two power-play goals in his last three games. The 27-year-old sniper has 18 goals on 99 shots and 17 assists through 48 games in 2024-25. His shots are down from the previous campaign when he scored 40 times on 204 pucks on net in 81 regular-season outings.

Canucks' Filip Hronek: Five points in five games
Hronek had a goal and assist in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.
Hronek got the Canucks on the board first when he pinched down from the right point, and Elias Pettersson hit his tape with a perfect cross-ice backdoor pass. Hronek assisted on Brock Boeser's game-winning goal during a third-period power play by hustling to keep the puck in at the left point. Hronek missed 21 games from late November to mid-January due to an upper-body injury and a lower-body procedure, but he's moving well now. He has five points (one goal, four assists) in his past five games.

Canucks' Elias Pettersson: Assigned to farm team
Pettersson was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Saturday.
The 20-year-old defenseman will get to play while the Canucks are off for two weeks during the 4 Nations Face-Off. Pettersson has started to push for third-pairing minutes in Vancouver, but he may not be needed on the NHL roster following the break if Quinn Hughes (undisclosed) is healthy by the time the Canucks face the Golden Knights on Feb. 22.

Canucks' Nils Aman: Heads back to AHL
Aman was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Saturday.
Aman was sent down after playing in each of the Canucks' last two games. He has just two assists over seven NHL appearances this season. If he is called up ahead of the Canucks' Feb. 22 game versus the Golden Knights, it'll likely be to serve in a fourth-line role, but the 25-year-old will play regularly with Abbotsford in the interim.

Canucks' Linus Karlsson: Bounced to AHL
Karlsson was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Saturday.
Karlsson's stay in the minors this time is likely to be longer, as the Canucks don't play again until Feb. 22 in Vegas. He has been bounced between levels multiple times to save cap space. Karlsson didn't play in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Exits contest in first period
Demko (undisclosed) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs.
Demko lasted 10:00 into the contest, stopping all six shots he faced. Kevin Lankinen took over in goal when Demko exited. The one silver lining here is that Demko will have two weeks to recover before the Canucks' visit to Vegas on Feb. 22 because of the 4 Nations Face-Off. The severity of the 29-year-old goalie's injury is unclear at this time.

Canucks' Linus Karlsson: Summoned from minors
Karlsson was called up by Vancouver on Saturday.
Karlsson has 12 goals and 18 points in 17 outings with AHL Abbotsford in 2024-25. He also has a goal in nine appearances with Vancouver this season. Victor Mancini was sent to the minors in a corresponding move.

Canucks' Victor Mancini: Returns to minors
Mancini was sent to AHL Abbotsford on Saturday.

Canucks' Thatcher Demko: Tending twine Saturday
Demko will patrol the home crease against Toronto on Saturday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Demko has won his last two outings, stopping 58 of 59 shots and earning his first shutout of 2024-25. He has a 6-6-3 record with a 2.90 GAA and an .889 save percentage through 16 appearances this season. Toronto is tied for 11th in the league with 3.11 goals per game this campaign.

Canucks' Quinn Hughes: Remains out Saturday
Hughes (oblique) won't play Saturday versus Toronto, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Hughes hasn't been in the lineup since Jan. 31. He has 14 goals and 59 points in 47 appearances in 2024-25. Saturday's matchup was the Canucks' last game before the 4 Nations Face-Off, and it's unclear if Hughes will be available to play for the United States in the tournament.

Canucks' Tyler Myers: Produces power-play helper
Myers logged a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks.
Myers continues to chip in a little offense while seeing more minutes in the absence of Quinn Hughes (undisclosed). The helper was Myers' fifth point over the last six games, a span in which he's gone plus-6 with 10 shots on net and seven blocked shots. The big defenseman has 18 points, 55 shots on net, 57 hits, 90 blocked shots, 60 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 51 appearances. His helper Thursday was his first power-play contribution since the 2021-22 campaign.
