Cole Sillinger | Fantasy Outlook
Cole Sillinger brings solid middle-six scoring form into road date with Wild
Cole Sillinger enters Sunday's road test against the Minnesota Wild ready to roll after shaking off a maintenance day earlier in the week. The 23-year-old forward has found an early rhythm, producing four points over his last four contests while logging over 16 minutes of ice time per night. He continues to skate on Columbus's second line alongside Charlie Coyle and Mathieu Olivier, complemented by second-unit power-play duties. That consistent deployment has sparked a clear surge in fantasy interest, with his start percentage jumping into double digits. Visiting Grand Casino Arena tonight, the Blue Jackets enter as underdogs in an expected higher-scoring environment opposite confirmed Wild netminder Jesper Wallstedt.
Our projection models anticipate another solid contribution tonight, projecting Sillinger for ~0.5–1.0 point, ~1–2 shots on goal, and a small goal chance, adding up to roughly 2.4 fantasy points. He also provides reliable secondary peripherals with modest hit and shot-blocking upside to help stabilize his floor even if he misses the scoresheet. Tonight wraps up a three-game weekly slate for the 3–3–0 Blue Jackets before they head into a lighter upcoming schedule, making tonight his final chance to deliver for fantasy rosters this week. Considering his firm middle-six role and active offensive touch, he profiles nicely as a depth target. Today’s action: Stream.
