Hoglander scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Devils.
Hoglander tied the game at 5-5 with his third-period tally, sweeping in a rebound off a J.T. Miller shot. The goal was Hoglander's first in five contests. The 22-year-old winger will continue to be streaky as long as he's confined to a fourth-line role at even strength. He's at eight goals, three assists, 32 shots on net, 17 hits, 23 PIM and a plus-11 rating through 23 appearances this season.

Rotowire
Hoglander scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Friday's 5-1 win over the Kraken.
Hoglander is on a five-game point streak, racking up four goals and an assist in that span despite seeing less than 12 minutes in each contest during the streak.

Hoglander opened the scoring at 16:23 of the first period, though the Avalanche took a 2-1 lead before the intermission. The tally was Hoglander's third goal to go with one assist during his four-game point streak. That's solid work for a winger stuck in a bottom-six assignment. He's up to nine points, 22 shots on net, 13 hits, 11 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 18 appearances.

Rotowire
Hoglander notched an assist and five PIM in Monday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.

Rotowire
Hoglander scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Kraken.

Hoglander is up to seven points, 20 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-7 rating through 16 appearances overall, though he's not safe from being a healthy scratch on occasion.

Rotowire
Hoglander scored a goal and added two PIM in Monday's 6-2 win over the Oilers.
Hoglander ended a five-game point drought with his second-period marker.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Credited with game-winning goal
Rotowire
Hoglander posted his second goal of the season in Tuesday's 3-2 win against the Predators.
Hoglander ended up with three shots on goal in just 8:59 of ice time across 14 shifts. He is a bottom-six forward averaging 10:04 per contest. Hoglander has made the most of his scant playing time, notching at least one point in three of his five outings. Still, his fantasy appeal remains rather minimal outside of the deepest pools.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Registers assist
Rotowire
Hoglander logged an assist in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Oilers.
Hoglander picked up an assist on Dakota Joshua's third-period tally. While he signed a two-year contract over the summer, Hoglander's $1.1 million cap hit makes him far from a lock to be in the lineup on a nightly basis. He began the season in a fourth-line role, seeing just 12:54 of ice time even with the Canucks playing only 11 forwards due to cap constraints and injuries. The 22-year-old still has room to grow, and fantasy managers may want to wait and see if that growth will happen in 2023-24 before adding him to their rosters.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Not playing Monday
Rotowire
Hoglander is not in Monday's lineup against St. Louis, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Dishes pair of assists
Rotowire
Hoglander produced two assists, two shots on goal, two PIM and three hits in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Flames.
Hoglander was initially slated to be a healthy scratch, but Brock Boeser (illness) was ultimately unable to play. Hoglander was a like-for-like swap on the third line and sparked that group, helping out on goals by Conor Garland and Sheldon Dries in the contest. Over the last nine games, Hoglander has picked up six points. He's at three goals, six helpers, 28 shots, 20 hits, six PIM and a minus-4 rating in 24 outings overall, though his steady play on offense of late should help him stick in the lineup more often than not.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Nets goal in overtime win
Rotowire
Hoglander scored a goal in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Sharks.
Hoglander tallied in the second period, but he was once again more of a peripheral contributor for the Canucks. Despite his top-line assignment, he saw a team-low 11:00 of ice time in the high-scoring contest. The 21-year-old winger is up to three goals, seven points, 25 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 22 outings, but such a limited role will continue to lower his scoring potential.

Hoglander set up Bo Horvat's 20th goal of the season, which came at 4:02 of the third period.

Rotowire
Hoglander scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.
Hoglander buried a feed from J.T. Miller at 13:55 of the first period. That was it for the Canucks' offense as they failed to solve Darcy Kuemper a second time. Hoglander has had some ups and downs lately, but he has a goal and an assist in his last four games. The 21-year-old is at two tallies, three helpers, 19 shots on net, 16 hits and a minus-4 rating in 18 appearances. While he's seeing even-strength minutes on the first line, he isn't a factor on special teams.

Canucks' Nils Hoglander: Bounces back from healthy scratch
Rotowire
Hoglander notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Predators.
Hoglander was scratched for Thursday's game versus the Ducks, but he was back on the top line at even strength Saturday. He responded well, setting up J.T. Miller's first-period tally. The assist was Hoglander's second in nine outings this season, and the 21-year-old winger has added 12 shots on net, nine hits and a minus-3 rating. His ice time remains low, so don't let his spot in the lineup fool you -- he'll need a significant bump in usage to bring fantasy value in redraft formats.
