Zeev Buium | Fantasy Outlook
Buium seeks turnaround as Canucks face tough road test in Tampa Bay
Zeev Buium and the struggling Canucks (2-7-1) visit Tampa Bay at Benchmark International Arena tonight looking to snap a brutal skid. The 20-year-old blueliner acknowledged earlier this week that he is fighting to find consistency, which mirrors his recent fantasy drop with ownership sliding down to 22 percent. Buium continues to skate heavy top-pairing minutes at even strength alongside second-unit power-play duties, though he has produced just one assist and three shots over his last seven games. Vancouver enters as a substantial underdog in a higher-scoring environment against Tampa Bay, with Andrei Vasilevskiy (unconfirmed) expected between the pipes.
For tonight's matchup, our projections point toward a modest floor, forecasting ~0.5–1.0 point, light shot volume, and around one blocked shot for approximately 1.1 fantasy points. While his ~0.30 point projection offers slight offensive upside if the second power-play unit clicks, the defensive environment severely caps his ceiling. Tonight marks the finale of a three-game road week for Vancouver, where our models project negative overall fantasy value amid ongoing plus-minus woes. Until Buium translates his 21-plus minutes of ice time into reliable peripherals or scoresheet marks, he belongs out of lineups. Today’s action: Bench.
