Earns shorthanded helper Blueger logged a shorthanded assist and seven shots on goal in Monday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.

Impact Blueger set up Sam Lafferty's buzzer-beating goal in the second period. The helper was Blueger's first point in five games with the Canucks since he returned from an ankle injury. The 29-year-old defensive forward has added 13 shots on net, six hits and a minus-1 rating while logging an average of 14:55 of ice time per contest in a bottom-six role.

Making Canucks debut Sunday Blueger (ankle) will play Sunday against the Canadiens, Ben Kuzma of The Vancouver Province reports.

Impact Blueger will make his debut with Vancouver after he missed the first month of the season with a nagging ankle injury. The 29-year-old Blueger signed a one-year deal with the Canucks in the offseason after tallying four goals and 16 points across 63 games between Vegas and Pittsburgh last year. Blueger figures to slot into a bottom-six role.

Won't play against Leafs Blueger (lower body) won't play Saturday against Toronto, according to Thomas Drance of The Athletic.

Impact Blueger might be an option to make his Vancouver debut Sunday against Montreal. He notched four goals, 16 points 85 shots on goal, 47 blocked shots and 71 hits in 63 games between Pittsburgh and Vegas last season.

Inches closer to return Blueger (ankle) took part in Wednesday's practice, but he's not expected to play Thursday versus Ottawa, per Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News.

Impact Blueger, who hasn't played yet in 2023-24, was participating in his first full practice Wednesday. Coach Rick Tocchet previously stated that Blueger would need to get into a couple of practices before returning, which makes it more likely to project Blueger for Saturday's contest versus Toronto or Sunday against Montreal. The 29-year-old had four goals and 16 points in 63 outings last year.

Still not skating Blueger (bruise), who is considered week-to-week, still has yet to resume skating, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports Friday.

Impact At this point, Blueger should be expected to miss at least the club's upcoming back-to-back against the Blues and Rangers on Friday and Saturday, respectively. After signing with the Canucks in the offseason, the veteran center has yet to get on the ice for his new team -- he figures to slot into a bottom-six role once given the green light to play.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Considered week-to-week Blueger (bruise) is regarded as week-to-week, Canucks coach Rick Tocchet told Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News on Friday.

Impact That's a significant change to Blueger's outlook after he was seen as a game-time decision Wednesday due to the injury. The 29-year-old had four goals and 16 points in 63 contests in 2022-23 between Pittsburgh and Vegas.

OCTOBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out Wednesday Blueger (bruise) won't play in Wednesday's season opener versus the Oilers, Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Blueger was considered a game-time decision, so this doesn't seem like it will be a long-term issue. The Canucks don't have the cap space to get reinforcements, so they'll dress 17 skaters for their Opening Night game.

OCTOBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision versus Oilers Blueger (bruise) will be a game-time call for Wednesday's matchup with Edmonton, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.

Impact If Blueger can't play, the Canucks would likely have to make an emergency recall right before puck drop after having previously sent Vasily Podkolzin to the minors, leaving themselves without a spare forward on the 23-man roster. Splitting his time between Pittsburgh and Vegas last season, the 29-year-old center registered four goals, 12 assists and 85 shots in 63 contests. While Blueger should be capable of getting back over the 20-point threshold this season, he has never managed 30 points in his career.

OCTOBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Participates in practice Blueger (bruise) was limited in practice Sunday, Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Blueger wanted to finish practice but "was kicked off the ice" by head coach Rick Tocchet. It sounds like Blueger's injury is pretty minor and he should be available for Wednesday's season opener against Edmonton. An update on his status should be available before then.

Signs with Canucks Blueger signed a one-year, $1.9 million contract with Vancouver on Saturday.

Impact Blueger played last season with Pittsburgh and Vegas, scoring four goals and adding 12 assists in 63 games. He should see bottom-six time with the Canucks.

Generates helper Blueger recorded an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Stars in Game 3.

Impact Blueger has played in five straight games, picking up two points, four shots on net and six hits. That's all of his playoff appearances this spring, as he's been a solid fourth-liner since Michael Amadio exited the lineup in the second round. Blueger is unlikely to drive play much on his own, so he's not much of an option for many DFS managers.

Teddy Blueger Snaps Home Loose Puck To Give Golden Knights Lead Late In Game 1

MAY 20, 2023 • YOUTUBE

Provides goal Friday Blueger netted a goal in a 4-3 overtime win over Dallas in Game 1 on Friday.

Impact Blueger's marker came midway through the third period to give Vegas a 3-2 edge. It was his first goal and first point in three playoff contests this year. Blueger has been serving on the fourth line alongside William Carrier and Keegan Kolesar, but it wouldn't be shocking if he comes out of the lineup at some point, especially if Michael Amadio, who has been a healthy scratch for the last three outings, draws back in.

MAY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up assist Monday Blueger notched an assist in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Wild.

Impact Blueger snapped his four-game point drought with the secondary helper on a Keegan Kolesar tally in the first period. The 28-year-old Blueger was a healthy scratch last Thursday, though that's simply a product of the Golden Knights having more healthy players than spots in the lineup. He's up to 16 points, 80 shots on net, 68 hits, 45 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 60 appearances between Vegas and Pittsburgh this season.

APRIL 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nets goal in win Blueger scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Blueger has a goal and three assists over his last six games. The fourth-liner has been a good fit with the Golden Knights, and he's up to 14 points, 71 shots on net, 58 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 52 contests this season when accounting for his time with the Penguins.

MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sets up empty-netter Blueger picked up an assist and fired three shots on goal in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Blueger led all Vegas forwards with 18:15 of ice time, and he was able to set up Brett Howden for the last goal of the game. The 28-year-old Blueger is settling right in with his new team, earning three helpers over his first five outings as a Golden Knight. He has 13 points, 68 shots on net, 58 hits, 38 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 50 contests between Vegas and Pittsburgh this season.

MARCH 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs apple Thursday Blueger provided an assist and added 12 PIM in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Lightning.

Impact Blueger set up Keegan Kolesar for a goal in the opening minute of the game. The Golden Knights' fourth line would get more attention in the third period, as they were involved in a brawl with the Lightning's fourth line, leading to misconducts for all 10 players on the ice. Blueger doesn't mix it up like that very often -- he's a quieter kind of defensive forward on the fourth line. The Latvian has 12 points, 65 shots on net, 28 PIM, 58 hits and a minus-7 rating through 49 appearances between Vegas and Pittsburgh this season.

MARCH 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets first helper with new team Blueger recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens.

Impact It took Blueger just two games to get on the scoresheet for Vegas after he was traded from Pittsburgh. The 28-year-old has stepped into the fourth-line center job right away with Nicolas Roy (lower body) out. Blueger is up to 11 points, 64 shots on net, 56 hits, 36 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 47 appearances this season. Four of his points have come in his last 12 outings.
