Cole Caufield | Fantasy Outlook
Cole Caufield brings red-hot goal scoring into home matchup against Utah
Cole Caufield enters tonight’s home matchup at the Bell Centre in blazing form after reaching double-digit goals on the campaign with a two-goal performance on Tuesday. The 25-year-old sniper has racked up four goals and six points across his last six outings, consistently generating offense while logging over 17 minutes a night. Caufield continues to command top-line duties alongside Alex Newhook and Juraj Slafkovsky while serving as the primary shooter on Montreal’s top power-play unit. The Canadiens (9-4-3) host a competitive Utah squad (10-6-0) in what projects to be a higher-scoring environment, where Montreal is a slight home underdog facing Karel Vejmelka (unconfirmed) in net.
Our projections point to another strong night for Caufield, slating him for ~1 point, ~2–3 shots on goal, and a good chance to score, translating to approximately 4.6 fantasy points with dependable power-play upside. That makes him a premier goal-scoring threat in standard leagues and DFS formats alike. Across Montreal’s three-game weekly slate, we project roughly 8.7 fantasy points, leaving just one remaining road contest against Toronto on Saturday after tonight's game concludes. Given his premium offensive role, high shot volume, and outstanding recent touch around the net, he is locked in as a priority option. Today’s action: Strong Start.
