Mikheyev notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev set up both of Nikita Zadorov's first-period tallies. With four points over his last four outings, Mikheyev is starting to get into a rhythm on offense. The winger is up to 30 points -- two shy of matching his career high -- with 128 shots on net, 39 hits and a plus-4 rating through 66 appearances. He should continue to fill a middle-six role.

Mikheyev notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev has bounced back from a five-game slump with a goal and an assist over his last two outings. It's helped that he's moved up to a line with J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser -- the third party on that line has typically seen an uptick in offense every time head coach Rick Tocchet shuffles his forward combinations. Mikheyev needs the spark, as he's managed 28 points, 125 shots on net, 37 hits and a plus-2 rating through 64 appearances. That's the same point total he had in 46 games a year ago, though he needs just five more to set a career high.

Mikheyev scored a goal on two shots, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev snapped a goal drought that dated back to Dec. 19, a span of 34 contests in which he managed just nine assists. While he's managed to stay in the lineup through the slump, he has seen his ice time stay in line with that of a middle-six forward. He's up to 11 goals, 27 points, 125 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-1 rating over 63 outings overall.

Mikheyev notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev has struggled in February with three assists and a minus-5 rating over 12 appearances. He spent much of the month in a bottom-six role, but he's been back on the top line at even strength recently, though he's also lost his power-play role. The winger is at 26 points, 110 shots on net, 30 hits and a minus-1 rating through 57 appearances. Mikheyev will need to show more consistency before he can be considered in most fantasy formats.

Mikheyev notched an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev helped out on a Noah Juulsen tally early in the second period. The Canucks' trade for Elias Lindholm has taken Mikheyev out of the top-six mix, though Dakota Joshua's upper-body injury has allowed Mikheyev to join the team's third line. His play isn't really suited for a checking line -- Mikheyev is at 25 points, 104 shots on net, 27 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 52 outings. Until an injury opens up a spot higher in the lineup, he'll likely be confined to a smaller role, so his fantasy value will be limited.

Mikheyev generated an assist during Monday's 2-0 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
The assist snapped a five-game point drought for Mikheyev. The winger continues to be deployed in a secondary scoring role while receiving ice time on both special teams. He's accrued 10 goals and 23 points through 43 contests this season.

Mikheyev notched an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev has gone five games without a goal, but he's picked up four assists and 10 shots on net in that span. The 29-year-old had the secondary helper on Ian Cole's opening tally Tuesday. Mikheyev remains in a top-six role at even strength while also seeing time on the second power-play unit. He's been a solid part of the Canucks' supporting cast with 21 points, 66 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-7 rating over 33 appearances.

Mikheyev notched an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev has a goal and three helpers over his last four games. The 29-year-old winger has yet to chip in a power-play point this season despite being a fixture on the second unit. All 20 of his points through 31 outings have come at even strength. Mikheyev has added 60 shots on net, 17 hits and a plus-7 rating while working on the top line alongside Elias Pettersson for much of the campaign.

Mikheyev recorded two assists and two shots in the Canucks' 5-2 win over the Predators on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Mikheyev recorded an assist on Elias Pettersson's opening goal and on Pius Suter's goal in the second period. This performance now gives Mikheyev points in back-to-back games and marks his third multi-point game in December -- he's picked up points in bunches this month. Mikheyev should continue to skate on the top line and second power-play unit for the time being.

Mikheyev scored his 10th goal of the season in Sunday's 4-3 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
His tally late in the second period proved to be the game-winner, giving the Canucks a 4-2 lead which Thatcher Demko was able to nurse to the final horn. Mikheyev snapped a brief three-game point drought with the goal, but he's been unable to sustain any offensive momentum and hasn't found the scoresheet in consecutive games since early November. On the season, the 29-year-old has 17 points in 28 contests, putting him on pace for a career-best campaign if he can stay on the ice -- Mikheyev has never played more than 54 games in an NHL season.
