Arshdeep Bains

Arshdeep Bains

24-Year-Old Left WingLW
Vancouver Canucks
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bains is a decent change-of-pace forward to fill out a bottom-six spot, but his minor-league stats suggest he could also tap into some extra scoring. He has just one goal in 21 regular-season NHL games over the last two years, but he produced 43 points in 50 regular-season outings and an additional 24 points in 24 playoff games for AHL Abbotsford in 2024-25. Looking ahead, there's no guarantee he makes the Canucks' roster out of training camp, but he should be an effective bottom-six fill-in whenever he gets a call-up. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $1.55 million contract with the Canucks in June of 2025.
Called up Friday
LWVancouver Canucks
January 2, 2026
Bains was recalled from AHL Abbotsford on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Bains' promotion comes as Marco Rossi (lower body) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. If Bains gets into the lineup during the Canucks' back-to-back against the Kraken and Bruins on Friday and Saturday, respectively, it will likely come at the expense of Aatu Raty or Liam Ohgren.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could return Friday
LWVancouver Canucks
October 8, 2024
Bains, who was sent down to the minors Monday, might be recalled ahead of Friday's matchup with the Flyers, Randip Jana of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Bains was reportedly in the mix for a roster spot right up to the final minutes before he was supplanted by Aatu Raty. If the 23-year-old Bains is added to the lineup against Philadelphia, it would likely be in a bottom-six role. If Bains isn't getting enough minutes at the NHL level, don't be surprised to see him sent back to the minors for more opportunities.
