Outlook Jimmy Snuggerud
Snuggerud poised for sophomore leap following impressive 51-point debut
Jimmy Snuggerud enters his age-22 campaign firmly established in the Blues' top six after an impressive rookie season where he tallied 21 goals and 51 points across 70 games. Displaying a potent release with 169 shots on goal and dependable two-way play, he quickly carved out a key middle-six role. Offseason reports highlighted ongoing contract discussions, underscoring St. Louis' commitment to his future.
Our season projection anticipates another solid showing, forecasting 21 goals, 30 assists, and 51 points, alongside 169 shots, 70 hits, and nine power-play points over 70 contests. With an ADP near pick 194, draft boards view him primarily as late-round depth, creating an appealing value opportunity if his offensive role expands.
At just 22 years old, Snuggerud combines goal-scoring instincts with competent peripheral coverage. If he earns more consistent top-power-play opportunities, he could easily push past his current projections and approach a 60-point ceiling, making him an attractive target to round out fantasy wing depth.

Outlook Anton Frondell
Frondell positioned for early opportunity down the middle in Chicago
At just 19 years old, Anton Frondell enters the season with a notable opening to carve out a top-six role down the middle for Chicago. With franchise cornerstone Connor Bedard sidelined through November following shoulder surgery, the Blackhawks will lean on their young talent, and Frondell has openly targeted a prominent role creating alongside veteran Patrick Kane.
Our data projects Frondell for 9 points, 36 shots on goal, and a pair of power-play points across a 12-game sample to begin his campaign. Fantasy managers have taken notice of this early-season runway, driving his rostered rate up to 38 percent as managers anticipate decent shot volume and immediate special-teams exposure.
Carrying an ADP of 190.50, Frondell represents an intriguing late-round upside target rather than an established weekly anchor. While his long-term usage may shift once Bedard returns to full health, his offensive pedigree and prime deployment make him well worth stashing in standard leagues to see how quickly he adapts.
