2025 Fantasy Outlook
Karlsson got his feet wet in the NHL last season, posting just three goals and three assists in 27 games with the Canucks. However, down in the AHL playoffs, he turned heads as he led Abbotsford in scoring (26 points in 24 games) during their run to the Calder Cup Finals. His NHL advanced stats (7.16 HDCF per 60, 1.43 ixG per 60) suggest there may be more under the hood than the surface numbers showed. If he can earn the trust of new head coach Adam Foote, Karlsson could carve out a regular role in Vancouver this season. Read Past Outlooks

Posts helper in shootout win
Karlsson logged an assist and two hits in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Blackhawks.
ANALYSIS
Karlsson helped out on a Max Sasson tally in the second period, which tied the game at 2-2. The 25-year-old Karlsson has played in each of the last two games over Jonathan Lekkerimaki. While it's unclear if Karlsson will stay in the lineup, he'll have a better chance if the Canucks opt to send a forward to the minors now that Teddy Blueger has returned from an undisclosed injury. Even then, Karlsson will likely be confined to a fourth-line role, with usage similar to 2024-25 when he had six points, 28 shots on net and 27 hits over 23 appearances.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Closing on deal with Vancouver
Karlsson is expected to sign a two-year contract with the Canucks, Rick Dhaliwal of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Karlsson is coming off a fantastic season in Sweden in which he racked up 26 goals and 20 assists in 52 games for Skelleftea AIK, resulting in him being named rookie of the year in the SHL. It's hard to imagine the Canucks will stick Karlsson in the minors given his offensive upside, so fantasy players may expect to see him on the 23-man roster for Opening Night of the 2022-23 campaign.
