Eriksson will come out of the Coyotes lineup on Friday.
Loui Eriksson News
The Coyotes have acquired Loui Eriksson, Jay Beagle, Antoine Roussel, the No.9 overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft, a 2022 second-round pick and a 2022 seventh-round pick from the Canucks for Conor Garland and Oliver Ekman-Larsson.
Eriksson had one assist while skating in just seven games with the Canucks in 2020-21. That's not the type of output you want from a player who is making $6.0M AAV for one more season. The Canucks dumped some bad contracts in this trade but it should also provide Eriksson to get on the ice more frequently in 2021-22. Since signing that six-year, $36.0M contract, Eriksson has scored just 38 goals with 52 assists (90 points) in 252 games.

Line Change
Eriksson will make his season debut on Saturday.
Eriksson was scratched for the first 14 games of the season but will replace Zack MacEwen in the lineup in Toronto. The 35-year-old winger, who had 13 points (6G / 7A) in 49 games last season, will start the game in the top-6 with Bo Horvat.
Line Change
Eriksson is expected to make his series debut in Game 2.
There is no word on who he will replace in the lineup but the Canucks reportedly have a couple of players banged up. In addition to Eriksson, Jake Virtanen will also enter the lineup on Tuesday. The veteran winger had just 13 points (6G / 7A) in 49 regular-season games.
Line Change
Eriksson will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday.
Line Change
Eriksson will draw into the Canucks lineup on Saturday.
Eriksson has been a healthy scratch for the last seven games but will draw into the lineup vs. the Penguins because Josh Leivo is out for 2-to-3 months. Eriksson, who has just one goal in 17 games, will skate with Bo Horvat.
Line Change
Eriksson will be back in Vancouver's lineup on Saturday.
Eriksson was a healthy scratch in Nashville but will replace Jay Beagle (undisclosed) in the lineup on Saturday afternoon. Eriksson has no points while averaging just 9:03 TOI/gm in 12 games this season.
Line Change
Eriksson will be a healthy scratch on Sunday.
Line Change
Eriksson will be back in the Canucks lineup on Monday.
Eriksson has been a healthy scratch for the last nine games but will replace Tyler Motte on Monday. Motte is expected to miss at least one week, so Eriksson could remain in the lineup for the next four games. He will skate on the fourth line with Jay Beagle and Tim Schaller.
Eriksson (bone bruise) is “possible” to play in Tuesday’s preseason game.
Eriksson suffered a bone bruise while blocking a shot in last Tuesday’s preseason opener against the Oilers. The Canucks originally labeled Eriksson as “week-to-week,” but the Swedish winger was back on the ice for Monday’s morning skate. The veteran should be ready for the start of the 2019 regular season.
Eriksson (upper-body) will be out for another 7-10 days.
Eriksson (upper-body) will not play on Monday.
Eriksson (knee) will return to the Canucks lineup on Saturday.
The Canucks have placed Loui Eriksson (knee) on IR.
Eriksson did not travel with Vancouver on their five-game road trip so he was already expected to miss at least a few games so his move to IR does not change his status at all.
Eriksson left Sunday's game with a lower-body injury and did not return.
Eriksson played just 1:09 TOI before leaving last night’s game with an apparent lower-body injury. The Canucks are back in action on Tuesday, so monitor Eriksson’s status during the morning skate.
The Canucks signed Loui Eriksson to a six-year contract worth $36 million ($6.0M AAV).
Eriksson, 30, was a key part of the Tyler Seguin trade back in 2013 but the Bruins lost him for nothing. He is coming off of his best season with Boston, having collected 30 goals and 33 assists (63 points) in 82 games. Eriksson is a player who rarely misses games and is a threat to score 30 goals with 30 helpers every season. He should click well with fellow Swedes Henrik and Daniel Sedin.
