Canucks' Brad Richardson: Taps in goal Tuesday
Richardson scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Golden Knights.
Richardson just had to get a stick on a pass from Elias Pettersson, and he converted at 13:03 of the second period. the 37-year-old Richardson won't share the ice much with the Canucks' top players -- he's been limited to a fourth-line role since he was claimed on waivers from the Flames.

Canucks' Brad Richardson: Gets first goal with new team
Richardson scored a goal, logged two hits and added two PIM in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Richardson put the Canucks ahead at 16:55 of the first period, and that tally stood as the game-winner. He's picked up a goal and an assist in his last two outings, though that accounts for all of his offense in six games for the Canucks. The 37-year-old has six points, 49 hits, 23 shots on goal, 31 PIM and a minus-3 rating in 33 outings between the Canucks and the Flames this season. He'll play almost exclusively in a fourth-line role.

Canucks' Brad Richardson: Posts helper in loss
Richardson recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Blues.
Richardson earned his first point with the Canucks after he was claimed on waivers from the Flames last Monday. The 37-year-old set up Alex Chiasson's second-period tally in this contest. Richardson has just five points with 22 shots on net, 47 hits, 29 PIM and a minus-4 rating in 32 contests overall, and his bottom-six usage is unlikely to give him many chances to contribute on the scoresheet.

Flames' Brad Richardson: Claimed by Vancouver
Richardson was claimed off waivers by Vancouver from Calgary on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
The 36-year-old will head back to Vancouver for his second stint with the club after spending two seasons there from 2013-15. Richardson has only managed four points in 27 games this season with the Flames, though, so he's not likely to provide much of a fantasy punch in his new digs.

Flames' Brad Richardson: Playing more regularly
Richardson has logged five shots on goal and three hits in his last three games.
Richardson sat out 14 straight games as a healthy scratch, but he's now played in three in a row. The 37-year-old is centering the fourth line, so he's not going to add much on offense. He's at four points, 40 hits, 27 PIM and 19 shots on net through 27 games, but he'll need to play at a sufficient level to keep Adam Ruzicka from retaking a place in the lineup.

The 36-year-old forward has only played in four of the Flames' eight games in January. Richardson has been limited to a fourth-line role when he plays, picking up just four points, 37 hits, 23 PIM and 14 shots on net through 24 contests. He'll mainly compete with Adam Ruzicka and Brett Ritchie for playing time going forward.

Flames' Brad Richardson: Designated for protocols
Richardson was placed in the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Monday.
Richardson was one of six Calgary players to enter the league's protocols, leading to the club's next three games being postponed. Considering the veteran center has just two points in his last 10 games, his potential absence, once the Flames resume their season, is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players.

Richardson earned the secondary assist on an Adam Ruzicka tally in the second period.

Flames' Brad Richardson: Slides helper Tuesday
Richardson logged an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Richardson's first assist of the year set up a Milan Lucic goal in the first period. The 36-year-old Richardson has picked up three points, eight shots on net and 19 hits in 11 contests. He's found modest success as the Flames' fourth-line center, but he's rarely going to contribute enough offense to be of interest in fantasy.

Richardson scored a goal, doled out two hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Rangers.

Richardson (lower body) will start the 2021-22 season on injured reserve, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Richardson penned a one-year, $800,000 contract with Calgary on Wednesday.
Richardson will join the Flames after just one season in Nashville in which he appeared in a mere 17 games with only four points to show for it. The 36-year-old center figures to slot into a fourth-line role but may still spend time watching from the press box periodically, making him a low-end fantasy option at best.
