2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mikheyev didn't generate much production to begin 2024-25, going nine games without a point to begin the season. Through the end of December, he had just 12 points in 36 games, but he turned things around in the second half and ended up with 20 goals and 34 points in a career-high 80 contests by the end of the season. Mikheyev's game is skilled and subtle, including a substantial penalty-killing role with very little power-play usage. Combined with a lack of overt physicality, his offerings aren't the most fantasy-friendly among players in the deep-league fringe range. Still, he can offer some offense and a decent shot total, so he's at least worth keeping an eye on as a streamer if the Blackhawks' offense takes a step forward in 2025-26. Read Past Outlooks

Overall
Signed a four-year, $19 million contract with the Canucks in July of 2022.
Deemed day-to-day
Mikheyev exited Sunday's 3-1 loss to Chicago due to an upper-body injury and is day-to-day, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
ANALYSIS
Mikheyev left the contest and was holding his right shoulder after being tripped, which caused him to crash into the boards early in the final frame, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio. The 31-year-old logged an assist, two hits and a plus-1 rating in 11:55 of ice time prior to exiting. Head coach Jeff Blashill said that Mikheyev's injury is "nothing major," but the winger's availability for Tuesday's home game against Ottawa is now up in the air. Teuvo Teravainen would likely move up to the top line in the event that Mikheyev is forced to miss any time.

2019
Mikheyev was able to play in 78 regular-season contests in 2023-24, earning 11 goals and 20 assists with 147 shots on net for the Canucks. That would be his second and final year with the team, as Vancouver dumped his salary off to Chicago in a trade just before the draft. Regardless of how much he's played, Mikheyev appears to peak as a 30-35-point winger who adds little in physicality. There's room for a scoring-only winger in deep fantasy formats, but the Blackhawks were aggressive in adding to their forward group this offseason, so it's unlikely Mikheyev will get more than middle-six usage and a chance at power-play time in 2024-25. Factor in the injury risk, and there are better options to fill out the bottom of your roster on draft day.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Heading to Chicago?
Mikheyev is expected to be traded to the Blackhawks this week, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
The Canucks are looking to trim salary, presumably to make a splash in free agency when the market opens July 1. Mikheyev has two years left on a deal carrying a $4.75 million cap hit, and the Blackhawks have plenty of space and could use some NHL-level talent to fill out their roster.
