Suter scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Suter snapped a three-game slump with this goal. The 28-year-old ended the regular season at 25 goals, 46 points, 138 shots on net, 59 hits, 43 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating across 81 appearances. He's a pending unrestricted free agent, but he's been a good fit with the Canucks, so general manager Patrik Allvin will likely want to get Suter to sign a new deal.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Saves game with two late goals
Rotowire
Suter scored twice on five shots, added two hits and logged two PIM in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Stars.
Suter's pair of goals were 23 seconds apart in the third period, helping the Canucks overcome a three-goal deficit. The 28-year-old has four goals and seven assists over his last eight contests. He's up to 24 goals, 45 points, 125 shots on net, 59 hits and a plus-4 rating over 77 appearances in a career year. Both of Elias Pettersson (upper body) and Filip Chytil (concussion) are questionable to return this season, so Suter could finish the year as the Canucks' top-line center.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Sends helper in loss
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Suter continues to operate as the first-line center and set up Nils Hoglander for the opening tally in this contest. The 28-year-old Suter has 14 points over 13 games dating back to March 12 versus the Flames. He's spent a large portion of that stretch on the first line following injuries to Elias Pettersson (undisclosed) and Filip Chytil (concussion). Suter is up to 43 points, 120 shots on net, 57 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 76 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores versus Winnipeg
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Jets.
Suter accounted for all the offense the Canucks could muster in this loss, and the Canucks are ending the regular season on a sour note after losing four of their last six games. Suter has been productive recently, however, recording eight points in that period (two goals, six assists) during a four-game point streak.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Records three assists
Rotowire
Suter delivered three assists, including one on the power-play, in Friday's 7-6 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Suter has recorded multi-point performances in three games in a row, a stretch in which he's racked up one goal and six helpers. The 28-year-old is having the best season of his career by notching a career-high 41 points across 72 contests, and he's ending the campaign on a strong note since the NHL resumed play following the 4 Nations Face-Off. He's notched 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) in 18 games since the break.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Another two-point effort
Rotowire
Suter produced two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.
Suter helped set up Derek Forbort's game-winner in the final minute of the second period, and a Kiefer Sherwood empty-netter late in the third. Suter has four multi-point performances in the last seven games, collecting four goals and eight points over that stretch, and he should remain a fantasy asset as long as Elias Pettersson (undisclosed) remains unavailable.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Two-point effort Monday
Rotowire
Suter produced a goal and an assist in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Devils.
The 28-year-old opened the scoring midway through the first period, then set up Conor Garland for the goal that forced OT with just 36 seconds left in the third. Suter centered Vancouver's top line Monday with both Elias Pettersson (undisclosed) and Filip Chytil (concussion) sidelined, but Suter has been making an impact of late even in a lesser role, picking up five goals and seven points over the last seven games.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Opens scoring Wednesday
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Flames.
Suter ended a four-game goal drought with the opening tally in this contest. During that stretch, he was limited to one assist and five shots on net. The 28-year-old has been bounced around the lineup with head coach Rick Tocchet's line shuffling of late, but Suter was in his usual third-line spot Wednesday. The Swiss forward has reached the 30-point mark for the second time in his career with 17 goals and 13 assists, as well as 98 shots on net and a plus-2 rating, over 64 outings this season.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Sets up empty-netter
Rotowire
Suter logged an assist and three hits in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
Suter, a pending unrestricted free agent, was not dealt by the Canucks prior to Friday's deadline. He remains in a third-line role for now, though he often sees more ice time than that placement in the lineup would suggest. He's earned four points over seven contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off break and is now up to 29 points over 61 appearances, matching his scoring output from 67 regular-season outings a year ago. He's a decent depth scorer who can help in deep fantasy formats with his offense.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Goals in consecutive games
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Kraken.
Suter's unassisted tally in the first period tied the game at 1-1. He's scored in consecutive games for the second time in just over a month, and the 28-year-old has earned five goals and three assists over his last 12 outings. For the season, Suter is up to a career-high 16 goals while adding 12 assists, 90 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 59 appearances.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores in Thursday's loss
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.
Suter gave the Canucks a 2-0 lead in the first period, but that was the extent of their scoring. He snapped his personal six-game goal drought and is up to four points over eight outings in February as a middle-six forward. For the season, the 28-year-old has 15 goals, 27 points, 89 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 58 appearances. He's on track to top the 30-point mark for the second time in his five NHL campaigns, but his relatively modest numbers across the board limit his fantasy value to deeper formats.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Deals power-play helper
Rotowire
Suter notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks.
Suter set up Dakota Joshua on the opening tally at 8:04 of the third period. With three goals and three assists over his last six outings, Suter has put up decent offense while serving as a middle-six center. The 28-year-old forward is up to 14 goals, 11 assists, three power-play points, 82 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 53 appearances. He's on pace to challenge his career highs of 15 goals and 36 points from the 2021-22 campaign with the Red Wings.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores in Sunday's overtime loss
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal on three shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings.
In the Canucks' first game without J.T. Miller, both Suter and Filip Chytil -- the two players most likely to take his vacated top-six spot -- scored a goal. Suter's tally opened the scoring 4:19 into the contest. The difference between the two centers came at the faceoff dot, where Suter went 5-for-16 while Chytil was 9-for-12, though Suter had the tougher defensive matchups while playing on the third line. The 28-year-old has been steady lately with three goals and two assists over his last six outings, and he's now at 14 goals, 24 points, 80 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 51 appearances this season.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Scores empty-netter
Rotowire
Suter scored an empty-net goal on the power play and added two PIM in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Predators.
Suter has warmed back up with four points over his last four games. He's also getting involved in special-teams play with a power-play goal Wednesday and a shorthanded tally Monday in St. Louis. The 28-year-old is up to 13 goals -- two shy of his career high -- with 10 assists, 77 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 49 appearances.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Two points in St. Louis
Rotowire
Suter scored a shorthanded goal and added an even-strength assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Blues.
His tally midway through the second period -- Suter's first shortie of the season, and the fourth of his career -- gave the Canucks a 4-1 lead and effectively put the game away. The 28-year-old hadn't had a multi-point performance since Dec. 6, but with 12 goals in 48 appearances, Suter's on pace for the first 20-goal campaign of his career.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Ends lengthy drought
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Oilers.
The helper snapped a 13-game point drought for Suter, who has maintained a top-six role despite the lack of offense. The 28-year-old finally broke through with a secondary assist on a Brock Boeser tally in the second period. Suter was good earlier in the year, but he's now at 20 points, 75 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 46 contests. He could still push for a career year -- his previous best was 36 points in 2021-22 -- but he's unlikely to be anything more than a depth forward in fantasy.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Sets up equalizer
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Senators.
The helper was Suter's second over his last seven games. The 28-year-old's offense has taken a significant drop since J.T. Miller returned, bumping Suter out of the top six. Suter is at 11 goals, eight assists, 58 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 32 appearances, but he'd likely have to move back to the wing to play above the third line, and that's not even a guarantee given the Canucks' strong wing depth.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Slides helper
Rotowire
Suter notched an assist in Monday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche.
Suter helped out on the first of Kiefer Sherwood's three goals in the game. The 28-year-old Suter snapped his three-game slump, but offense may be harder to come by moving forward. He's lost his top-six spot since J.T. Miller returned from a personal leave, with Suter now centering the third line rather than playing on the wing. He's been good this year with 18 points, 53 shots on net and a plus-6 rating over 29 appearances, and the Canucks have a fairly deep offense, so don't rush to drop Suter -- just have a backup plan ready if he enters a slump.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Tracking toward career year
Rotowire
Suter posted an assist Sunday in a 4-2 loss to the Lightning.
Suter registered the primary helper on Quinn Hughes' seventh goal of the season to open the scoring Sunday. The forward has been held off the scoresheet on only one occasion over his last seven games, which has helped fill the void of J.T. Miller (personal) being away from the team. Suter's on his way to surpassing his career high of 36 points, with 11 goals and 17 points through 25 games this season. The Swiss center trails only Jake DeBrusk (12) for the team lead in goals.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Nets two goals in win
Rotowire
Suter scored twice on three shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
Suter's first goal stood as the game-winner, and he also added an empty-netter. He's tallied five times and added two assists over his last six contests, playing well while maintaining a second-line role. Overall, Suter is at 11 goals, 16 points, 48 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 24 appearances. He's not much of a factor on the power play, but his spot in the lineup at even strength makes him worth a look in fantasy formats with a focus on offense.
