Eriksson has only appeared in one contest for the Canucks this season.
EDGE Analysis
Eriksson played in the season opener, but has been a healthy scratch in the following four games. He's never put it all together in Vancouver, but he did play 81 games in 2018-19. The limited value he brought has sunk even lower with Loui stuck in the press box. Even if he plays the occasional game, it will be in a fourth line role. Keep him off your radar.

Eriksson registered a pair of assists and a pair of shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Eriksson hadn't featured on the scoresheet since posting four points in a 7-4 win over the Senators on March 20. The pair of helpers gives Eriksson 29 points (11 goals, 18 assists) in 79 games this year. Should he earn another point, the 33-year-old would hit the 30-point mark for the first time since 2015-16 after a couple of injury-plagued campaigns torpedoed his offense.

Eriksson scored a goal on two shots and added a trio of assists in Wednesday's 7-4 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Eriksson had only taken two points from seven games in March before the impressive performance. With 27 points in 73 games, Eriksson has his best season in a Canucks sweater. The 33-year-old hasn't collected 70 points since 2011-12 with the Stars, but he can still be a good depth add in deeper formats, as Wednesday showed he's still capable of the occasional outburst.

Eriksson found the back of the net in a 3-2 overtime win versus the Maple Leafs on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
From a points-per-game standpoint, Eriksson is having the worst season of his career, dating back to his 2006-07 rookie campaign, as he's averaged only 0.33 points per night in 2018-19. The 33-year-old has just 10 goals and 22 points this season.

Eriksson played just 10:29 and was a minus-2 in Saturday's blowout loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Eriksson played 18:47 on Wednesday, 13:57 on Thursday, and only 10:29 on Saturday. Despite being slated to skate on Bo Horvat's line, he'll often find himself moved down the depth chart mid-game. He's currently in the midst of a seven-game point drought, and his Canucks could surely use some offense from him after being blanked in three of their last four outings.

Eriksson provided the game-winning goal in a 5-1 rout against the visiting Flyers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Who says a game-winning goal has to come in dramatic fashion? Eriksson simply provided the second goal for the Canucks, effectively capturing a lead that the team would never relinquish. The veteran winger has six goals and nine assists to qualify as a mediocre stat line through 35 games.

Eriksson hasn't found the scoresheet in 10 games.
EDGE Analysis
Nov. 13 against the Islanders was Eriksson's most recent point. He has 12 points in 30 games on the year, and doesn't produce much elsewhere, having nine blocks and just a single hit this season. Eriksson's time in Vancouver continues to be a letdown, as he has 59 points in 145 games in the blue and green, despite having 63 points in 2015-16 as a member of the Bruins.

Eriksson extended his point streak to four games (four goals, three assists) with a goal in a 4-3 shootout loss to Buffalo on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
He, Marcus Granlund and Bo Horvat are really clicking right now and there's a strong chance Eriksson is sitting out there on your wire. Grab him up and ride this his streak. You can always drop him later when he slows down and/or falls asleep.

Eriksson scored two goals and added one assist in an 8-5 win over Boston on Thursday night.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old winger struggled out of the game this season, but has now delivered at least a point in each of his last three games. Eriksson is certainly on the down slope of a reasonable NHL career. He has only delivered more than 47 points once in his last six seasons, so don't overestimate this little outburst. It was a nice game for Eriksson, but it certainly doesn't guarantee fantasy value this season.

Eriksson will look to pot his first goal of the season during Saturday's tilt with the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Eriksson started out the season with three assists in his first two games, and was looking like a nice fit with Elias Pettersson. Since those games, he's back to last season's form, failing to produce offense. He has a lone apple in the past nine games, and needs to step up his production to keep the Canucks afloat amidst all their current injuries.
