Scores early in loss Karlsson scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Karlsson scored 2:55 into the game, but that was the extent of the Canucks' offense. The 26-year-old continues to impress -- he has four goals over his last eight games, and he earned an in-game promotion to the top six Tuesday, though it's unclear if that will last for another contest. For the season, the Swede is up to five goals, nine points, 38 shots on net, 27 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 24 appearances. He is likely to maintain a full-time role as long as the Canucks are still dealing with multiple injuries to forwards.

Impact Karlsson opened the scoring midway through the first period. The 26-year-old continues to show growth on offense this season with four goals and a helper over his last eight games. For the year, he's at four goals, eight points, 33 shots on net, 24 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 21 appearances. Karlsson's ice time still often remains limited -- he had just 6:49 in this contest -- but he's making the most of his minutes.

Tickles twine Thursday Karlsson scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and doled out two hits in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Stars.

Impact Karlsson has three goals and two assists over his last nine games. Given his fourth-line role and relatively limited ice time (10:00 per game in that span), Karlsson is exceeding expectations and helping to secure his place in the lineup. For the season, he's at seven points, 28 shots on net, 23 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 19 appearances. He's also on the second power-play unit, which bodes well for him to stick in the lineup while Mackenzie MacEachern, Arshdeep Bains and Lukas Reichel battle for depth roles.

Deposits goal Sunday Karlsson scored a goal on two shots, added 10 PIM and doled out four hits in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Lightning.

Impact Karlsson has two goals and two helpers over eight games in November. The 26-year-old has mostly filled a bottom-six role so far, and he will likely continue to do so after Conor Garland (undisclosed) got hurt Sunday. David Kampf will be in the mix for minutes soon after signing with the Canucks on Saturday, but the team's ongoing injury concerns should leave room for Karlsson to stick in the lineup. Karlsson has six points, 20 hits and 25 shots on net over 17 appearances.

The 25-year-old forward has added 17 shots on net, 14 hits, five blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating from his fourth-line role. Karlsson has been with the big club all season and should continue to find time as a depth forward while the team navigates a tough stretch of injuries.

Posts helper in shootout win Karlsson logged an assist and two hits in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Karlsson helped out on a Max Sasson tally in the second period, which tied the game at 2-2. The 25-year-old Karlsson has played in each of the last two games over Jonathan Lekkerimaki. While it's unclear if Karlsson will stay in the lineup, he'll have a better chance if the Canucks opt to send a forward to the minors now that Teddy Blueger has returned from an undisclosed injury. Even then, Karlsson will likely be confined to a fourth-line role, with usage similar to 2024-25 when he had six points, 28 shots on net and 27 hits over 23 appearances.
