Teddy Blueger - NHL News & Rumors

Traveling with team Blueger (lower body) is with the Canucks on their six-game road trip that begins Tuesday in Buffalo, according to Canucks Insider.

Impact Blueger has been dealing with a long-term lower-body injury that has kept him out of the lineup since Oct. 19. It's unclear if he's close to returning to game action, but his presence on the team's road trip might be an indication that he's approaching full strength. The 31-year-old has appeared in just two games this season, producing a goal on two shots, three hits and three blocks.

Hopes to return after Christmas Head coach Adam Foote said Monday that Blueger (lower body) now hopes to return after Christmas, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.

Impact Blueger has been limited to just two appearances during the 2025-26 season due to an undisclosed issue followed by a lower-body injury. He resumed skating in mid-November but suffered a setback shortly after. It's not yet clear whether the 31-year-old has returned to the ice following his setback, but he's slated to require at least a few more weeks on the shelf before he's in the mix to return to game action.

Impact The Canucks indicated Sunday that Blueger had resumed skating, but he'll require a few days to rest after experiencing his setback. Assuming he's able to resume skating in the coming days, it seems as though he'll still be in the mix to return to game action sometime in late November or early December.

The Canucks recently signed David Kampf to reinforce the team's center depth, so it will be interesting to see where Blueger will slot in when he returns.

Placed on injured reserve Blueger (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Friday, retroactive to Oct. 19.

Impact Blueger has missed the last two games due to an undisclosed injury, and his placement on IR signals that he'll at least be unavailable for Saturday's game against the Canadiens. It's not clear when he'll be able to return to action, but Nils Aman will likely continue to draw into the Canucks' lineup in Blueger's absence.

Missing another game Blueger (undisclosed) won't play Thursday versus the Predators, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact Blueger will miss a second game while dealing with his second injury of the young season. The 31-year-old's absence will allow Nils Aman to be in the lineup in a fourth-line role. Blueger's next chance to play is Saturday at home versus the Canadiens, which is the first half of a back-to-back that concludes Sunday against the Oilers.

Unlikely to play Tuesday Blueger (undisclosed) is considered doubtful for Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet reports.

Impact 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.

Being evaluated Blueger (undisclosed) sustained an injury late in Sunday's 4-3 win over Washington, according to Dan Murphy of Sportsnet.

Impact Blueger's status for Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh is unclear. Vancouver played without Brock Boeser (personal) against the Capitals on Sunday, while Filip Chytil (upper body) and Jonathan Lekkerimaki (undisclosed) exited the team's win early. The Canucks may need to recall some reinforcements from AHL Abbotsford.

Sporting non-contact jersey Blueger (undisclosed) was practicing in a non-contact sweater at Tuesday's practice, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact While there is certainly still time for Blueger to get the all-clear, he should be considered questionable, at best, to face the Stars on Thursday. In 82 regular-season games for the Canucks last year, the 31-year-old center notched eight goals and 18 helpers. Despite having already missed three games this year, Blueger should still be capable of reaching the 25-point threshold for the third straight year.

Canucks: Teddy Blueger's injury opens the door a little wider for Braeden Cootes Teddy Blueger will be out at least a week with a suspected knee injury.

OCTOBER 7, 2025 • THEPROVINCE.COM

Set to miss some time Blueger is contending with an undisclosed injury and won't be available for at least the first three games of the 2025-26 season, per Ben Kuzma of Postmedia.

Impact Blueger was injured in Friday's preseason game versus the Oilers, and general manager Patrik Allvin said Tuesday that the 31-year-old forward is expected to be out "another week." With that update in mind, Blueger shouldn't be expected to return to the lineup until Oct. 16 in Dallas at the earliest. The 2012 second-round pick appeared in all 82 games in 2024-25, chipping in eight goals and 26 points.
