Tanev scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev converted his second goal of the year 1:30 into overtime to secure the win in a back-and-forth game. The defenseman had three shots on goal and three blocked shots in the contest. Tanev has 10 points, 83 blocks and 26 shots through 36 games this season.

Tanev had an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev dished to Adam Gaudette, who set up Jake Virtanen for the Canucks' first goal of the game. Tanev has played a mostly defensive role on the Canucks' second pairing, with just eight points and 77 blocked shots through 33 contests. He's not likely to be of interest to most fantasy owners.

Tanev had two helpers, two hits and two PIM in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Both of Tanev's assists came in the first period, on goals by Tanner Pearson and Zack MacEwen. The 29-year-old defenseman has seven points and 73 blocked shots through 29 games this season. He's earned three assists in his last four outings, but he's never earned more than 20 points in season -- a scoring binge doesn't seem all that likely.

Tanev picked up an assist in Wednesday's collapse to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev ended a 17-game point drought by picking up an assist on his team's third goal of the night. Prior to the drought, the defensive blue liner had four points in a six-game span. However, if you have him on your roster, chances are you're relying on his blocks. He blocked three shots during the contest, and is up to 68 on the campaign -- good for third in the NHL.

Tanev (upper body) blocked four shots in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev briefly had to leave the game after ending up on the receiving end of a Patrik Laine shot in the second period. He was able to finish the contest, just one day after exiting early against the Blackhawks due to injury. Tanev has four points and 49 blocks in 17 games this year -- his usage is mostly defensive in nature, which allows Quinn Hughes to range forward on offense.

Tanev (upper body) will be in the lineup for Friday's game against Winnipeg, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev was initially deemed unlikely to play against the Jets, but he's evidently made a quick turnaround ahead of puck drop. The veteran blueliner will slot into his usual spot skating on the Canucks' second pairing alongside Quinn Hughes.

Tanev (upper body) isn't expected to play in Friday's tilt with Winnipeg, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev left Thursday's game early with an upper-body injury. He was able to work on the ice Friday morning, but doesn't appear to be healthy enough to play against the Jets. This opens the door for Oscar Fantenberg to make his debut as a Canuck.

Tanev suffered an upper-body and won't return to Thursday's game against Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear how Tanev suffered the injury, but he left late in the first period with the injury and failed to return. The Canucks will roll with five defensemen for the time being, with Quinn Hughes likely to see a bump in ice time. The team heads to Winnipeg for a clash Friday, so expect a word regarding Tanev's health following the game or before Friday's clash.

Tanev registered an assist in Sunday's victory in New York.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev set up Jay Beagle for a short handed marker, which ended up being the game winner. He's had a strong start to the season, posting four points in eight games. Don't expect that level of production to last, but it's certainly looking like he'll eclipse the 12 points he totaled in 2018-19.

Tanev registered a pair of assists in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev had a hand in both goals by the Canucks, setting up Brock Boeser in the first period and Tanner Pearson in the second. The helpers were Tanev's 100th and 101st career points. The veteran defenseman has recorded three points and 12 blocked shots in four contests.
