Roussel (illness) will be in the lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Islanders, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

The French winger was able to fight off his symptoms and is slated to skate on the team's third line with Adam Gaudette and Markus Granlund. With 27 points, Roussel is already on pace to set career bests offensively and should hit those marks if he's able to continue skating with skilled linemates.

Roussel is questionable for Saturday's game against the Islanders due to an illness.

EDGE Analysis

The agitating winger reportedly wasn't feeling well Saturday morning, but there's still hope from Canucks coach Travis Green that Roussel will be able to suit up. With the spotlight in Vancouver shining brightly on Calder Trophy favorite Elias Pettersson, third-line players like Roussel are being overlooked. However, with seven goals and 20 helpers through 56 games, he's actually well on his way to a career-best season offensively. Check back to see whether Roussel takes to the ice for pregame warmups. If he can't go, then perhaps Zach MacEwen will emerge from the press box.

Roussel assisted on both of the Canucks' goals in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel has collected a goal and three assists in his last four outings, and eight points in 10 skates in February. With 27 points in 56 games to go with 112 PIM this season, the left wing has provided sneaky fantasy value in deeper formats in his first year with Vancouver.

Roussel picked up an assist in Thursday's shootout win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel has six points in his past 10 contests, a scoring rate much higher than we're used to seeing. He has 24 points through 54 games this season, and is in line to crack the 30-point mark for the first time in his career. That's not his main contribution though, as he leads the NHL with 112 PIM.

Roussel scored the game-winning goal over the Red Wings on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

It was just Roussel's fifth goal of the campaign, bringing him up to 19 points in 45 games. He's already surpassed last year's 17 point total, which he did in 73 games. He's having a nice bounce back season, and provides great category coverage with 38 blocks, 60 hits, and 98 PIM.

Roussel scored and recorded an assist in Vancouver's 4-2 win over Edmonton on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel only has four goals and 17 points in 35 games this season. While his stat line won't blow anybody away, he's already matched his 2017-18 point total and did so in 38 fewer games. The 29-year-old has been close to a point-a-game player in the month of December, collecting nine points in 12 games this month. Still, his lack of power-play time makes him a risky fantasy play most nights.

Roussel wasn't a member of Monday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel recently missed a game with a shoulder injury, but there's no word on that being the reason for his absence. He did suit up for the Canucks most recent game, picking up an assist against his former Stars on Saturday.

Roussel (shoulder) is preparing to play against his former team in the Stars on Saturday, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel was on the ice for pre-game warmups, indicating that he'll be fit to play against his old employer. He's up to three goals and five assists over 23 games in his typical middle-six role for the Canucks.

Roussel is considered day-to-day with a shoulder injury, Ben Kuzma of The Vancouver Province reports.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel was unable to suit up for Thursday's game against the Golden Knights due to what is being described as a "nagging shoulder ailment," but his day-to-day tag suggests he could return as soon as Saturday against the Stars. If Roussel's unable to go, Tim Schaller will likely occupy his spot in the lineup for a second straight game.

Roussel (upper body) won't play Thursday versus Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Roussel was a late scratch for Thursday's game, apparently slowed by an upper-body injury. Meanwhile, the 29-year-old is scheduled to be re-evaluated Friday. Vancouver's next game comes Saturday when they take on Dallas.
