The Swiss forward has 34 points, 106 shots on net, 47 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 67 appearances. He's got a chance at the 40-point mark for the first time in his career, as long as he can continue to be productive.

Rotowire
Suter scored a goal, dished an assist and added two hits in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Blackhawks.
This was Suter's first multi-point effort since Jan. 27 versus the Blues. Since that contest, he hasn't gone more than two games without a point, providing steady offense in a middle-six role. For the season, the 28-year-old is up to 18 goals, 32 points, 99 shots on net, 43 hits, 34 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 65 appearances. Suter's not a category-coverage type, but he has enough offense to help support a fantasy roster's depth.

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: 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.

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.

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.

Rotowire
Suter scored an empty-net goal on the power play and added two PIM in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Predators.

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.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Second multi-point effort of season
Rotowire
Suter banked a goal and an assist in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over Buffalo.
Both of Suter's markers came at even strength, and he extended his point streak (two goals, two assists) to three games. The Swiss forward has been productive in November with six goals and four assists through 13 games. Suter had three points across eight contests in October, so he's turned the corner on offense. Furthermore, Suter is tied for the team lead in goals with Conor Garland. Overall, Suter has provided eight goals and five assists through 21 appearances.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Tickles twine in defeat
Rotowire
Suter scored a goal on three shots Wednesday in a 5-4 loss to the Penguins.
Suter helped jumpstart Vancouver's comeback attempt by depositing a slap shot past Tristan Jarry at 13:40 of the second period. The 28-year-old Suter has assumed the No. 2 center role as a result of J.T. Miller's (personal) absence, and the former is tracking towards surpassing his career-high 36 points that he produced during the 2021-22 campaign with Detroit. Suter is tied for first on Vancouver in goals with seven and he's added four helpers through 20 games. 10 of Suter's 11 points have come at even strength, so he'll be a name to keep an eye on if he can be more productive with his spot on the No. 2 power-play unit.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Contributes assist in win
Rotowire
Suter logged an assist in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Bruins.
Suter has three helpers over his last five contests while maintaining a top-six role. The 28-year-old set up Conor Garland's empty-net tally Tuesday. Suter is up to 10 points, 33 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-1 rating over 19 outings overall. He's more of a secondary scorer, but he's done enough of that lately to be of interest in deeper fantasy formats.

Canucks' Pius Suter: Posts helper
Rotowire
Suter logged an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.
Suter has two goals and two assists over his last six outings. The 28-year-old moved to center after primarily playing as a winger early in the season -- he's now covering for J.T. Miller (personal) while playing up the middle. Suter has been moderately useful in fantasy with nine points, 31 shots on net, 13 hits and an even plus-minus rating, though his offense could ultimately dip in Miller's absence.
