2025 Fantasy Outlook
Blueger accounted for eight goals, 26 points, 94 shots and 104 hits in 82 regular-season games last campaign. Before slowing down as 2024-25 progressed, he had five tallies and 12 assists through his first 35 outings. Blueger also led the Canucks with 510 faceoff wins. He has flirted with the 30-point plateau on three occasions but hasn’t achieved that mark yet in his NHL career. He is a solid bottom-six center who kills penalties, but fantasy managers won’t benefit much from his offensive contributions unless he is going through a heater. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $3.6 million contract with the Canucks in June of 2024.
Unlikely to play Tuesday
Blueger (undisclosed) is considered doubtful for Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Blueger sustained an injury late in Sunday's win over the Capitals, and it appears as though the issue will force him to miss at least one game. However, general manager Patrick Allvin said Monday that Brock Boeser (personal) is a "possibility" to suit up Tuesday, and Boeser would likely replace Blueger in the lineup against the Penguins. Assuming Blueger sits Tuesday, his next opportunity to play would be Thursday in Nashville.

Blueger had to wait a month to make his Canucks debut due to a bruised ankle he suffered just before the start of the 2023-24 campaign. The good news is he didn't miss another game the rest of the way, racking up six goals and 22 assists to match his career-high of 28 points. Injuries are often part of the equation for the Latvian forward -- he's missed between 13 and 19 games in each of the last four seasons. He can chip in hits at a decent rate but doesn't produce many PIM, and his offense is rarely going to exceed a 30-point pace even if he could avoid injuries. Expect Blueger to fill a bottom-six role for the Canucks again in 2024-25, and he has virtually no chance to move up the lineup given the team's ample center depth.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Interest in re-signing
Blueger, who is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, has expressed interest in re-signing with the Canucks, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Blueger had six goals, 28 points, 31 PIM, 98 hits and 43 blocks in 68 regular-season contests with Vancouver in 2023-24. He also recorded two assists, six PIM, 18 hits and 14 blocks in 13 playoff outings this year. While the 29-year-old doesn't make headlines, he's a solid bottom-six forward, so the Canucks might seek to retain his services.
