Goldobin has been a healthy scratch for the past four games.
EDGE Analysis
This isn't the first time Goldobin has been scratched this year, but it's definitely the lengthiest. His prior trip to the press box only lasted two games. Despite not being in the lineup, Goldobin remains fourth in Canucks scoring with 23 points in 44 games this season.

Goldobin registered two assists in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old Russian now has 18 assists and 23 points in 2018-19, putting him on pace to finish the year with 48 points. Averaging close to three minutes of power-play time, Goldobin has seen his fair share of scoring opportunities in his second year as a member of the Canucks. He should continue finding the scoresheet in the second half of the season, provided he remains part of the Vancouver's power-play equation.

Goldobin had an assist during Sunday's 4-2 win over Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
Goldobin provided an assist on one of his team's four goals during Sunday night's win. The creative winger is on a bit of a roll right now, with assists in three straight games, upping his season total to 16.

Goldobin will be a healthy scratch in Tuesday's game against the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the first game of the season Goldobin won't hit the ice for, he played in all 29 games compiling 16 points in the process. He has gone pointless in the past three games, but had a stretch of six points in the five games prior to that. Goldobin will need to work on the other aspects of his game in order to stay in the lineup and play a meaningful role.

Goldobin tallied his first point in 11 games during Monday's win over Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Goldobin had been struggling to produce, and while it was just a secondary assist, it's still nice to see him finally crack the scoresheet. He's getting plenty of ice time, including an abundance on the top power play unit, so he needs to start contributing more on a regular basis, before those minutes are handed out elsewhere.

Goldobin hasn't been able to create much offense lately, as he's gone seven straight games without a point.
EDGE Analysis
Goldobin started the year on a strong note, netting three points in the opening two games against the Flames. He showed good chemistry with rookie standout Elias Pettersson, but can't seem to get much going on his own. He's known for showing flashes of brilliance, but has yet to do so with consistency. This year he's getting a bigger opportunity than he ever has before, and needs to prove that he can be a reliable source for secondary scoring.

Goldobin provided the Canucks' lone goal in Saturday's 4-1 home loss to the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
The crafty winger, who the Canucks selected 27th overall in the 2014 draft, seeks a full-time role with the parent club this season. Goldobin stacked eight goals and 14 points against a minus-14 rating over 38 games in 2017-18. If you squint hard enough, you can look past his team's defensive shortcomings and come to realize that Goldobin shouldn't be overlooked near the tail end of fantasy drafts.

Goldobin was reassigned to AHL Utica on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
As 2017-18 wrapped up, Goldobin was able to put on a small surge in his last 10 games notching three assists and three goals, and will look to carry over the momentum for AHL Utica's run at the Calder Cup. The transaction is in no way a demotion for the 22-year-old, but a way to give him experience and playing time in a playoff environment.

Goldobin had two assists in Thursday's win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Goldobin now has 10 points (five goals) in 30 games this season. The 22-year-old is very much on the rise in fantasy and could be one to watch for next season. The speedy winger is seeing time on the second power-play unit and is worthy of a look in some very deep leagues. Given his explosiveness and strong shot, Goldobin is worth keeping tabs on.

Goldobin was assigned to AHL Utica on Monday and then immediately recalled.
EDGE Analysis
This was a paper move designed to make Goldobin eligible for the AHL playoffs. However, considering that the 22-year-old is currently listed on the top line, and top power-play unit, on Vancouver's depth chart, it seems unlikely he will be returning to the minors anytime soon. The first-round pick from 2014 has notched three goals and three assists in 19 games, but he has a 14.3 shooting percentage that could prove hard to sustain over the long run.
