2025 Fantasy Outlook

Lekkerimaki got his first taste of the NHL last season, producing three goals, three assists and a minus-6 rating in 24 games. The 21-year-old will be looking to compete for a full-time spot in the lineup in training camp. He certainly has a shot, bringing electric goal-scoring capabilities to the wing that he displayed at the AHL level -- he scored 19 goals in 36 regular-season games with AHL Abbotsford last season. With some experience under his belt, and assuming he can grab a lineup spot out of camp, Lekkerimaki could be a great value pick towards the later portions of deeper drafts, even if he experiences some expected rookie growing pains.

February 27, 2026

Lekkerimaki underwent successful shoulder surgery Friday.

ANALYSIS
The Canucks announced Saturday that Lekkerimaki would require season-ending surgery, but he's expected to be ready to return in time for training camp in September, when he should have an opportunity to compete for an NHL roster spot. Over 13 appearances with Vancouver this year, the 21-year-old recorded two goals, an assist, 10 hits and five blocked shots while averaging 11:41 of ice time.

Set for NHL debut

RWVancouver Canucks Minors

November 12, 2024

Lekkerimaki will make his NHL debut versus the Flames on Tuesday, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.

ANALYSIS
Lekkerimaki's promotion to the NHL came after Brock Boeser was ruled out indefinitely with an upper-body injury. The 20-year-old Lekkerimaki is poised to slide into a first-line role alongside J.T. Miller in addition to linking up with the No. 2 power-play unit. In seven minor-league contests with AHL Abbotsford this year, Lekkerimaki has racked up five goals and two assists, showing off the offensive upside that saw him taken 15th overall in the 2022 NHL Draft.
