Outlook Frederik Andersen
Andersen enters Edmonton tandem with late-round upside in high-powered offense
Frederik Andersen enters his age-37 campaign joining Edmonton, where our depth chart projects him as the primary starter in a tandem alongside Tristan Jarry. After registering 20 wins across 39 appearances with Carolina last season, Andersen transitions to a potent Oilers environment that should inherently bolster his win equity whenever he takes the crease.
Our projections outline 35 games played for Andersen, compiling 16 wins, 742 saves, a 3.05 GAA, and an .874 save percentage. While the projected ratios reflect some late-career regression after last year's dip to an .883 save percentage, his expected workload offers dependable volume in leagues that heavily reward goaltender victories.
With an ADP sitting around 237.80 in the final rounds of drafts, Andersen is being valued purely as a depth netminder. Fantasy managers can target him as a cost-effective number-three goalie who provides strong streaming upside and win opportunities without requiring premium draft capital.

Outlook Darnell Nurse
Darnell Nurse offers reliable peripheral stability and heavy-minute floor for San Jose
Darnell Nurse enters his age-31 season transitioning to San Jose after an extended, durable tenure in Edmonton. Throughout his career, the veteran defenseman has logged heavy minutes while providing reliable physical play, even as his scoring output tapered to 24 points over 87 games last year.
Our season projections anticipate another durable 82-game campaign, forecasting 24 points, 164 shots on goal, 137 hits, and 167 blocked shots. Nurse is expected to see minimal power-play opportunity, capped at two power-play points, meaning his fantasy value will remain largely grounded in his peripheral contributions.
Carrying an ADP of 134.44, Nurse aligns well as a late-round target for fantasy managers seeking stability in peripheral categories. While playing on a rebuilding roster limits his offensive upside and plus-minus stability, his steady floor in hits, blocks, and ice time keeps him rosterable in standard leagues.
