Outlook Frank Nazar

Nazar centers third line as Blackhawks host Canadiens at United Center

Frank Nazar and the Chicago Blackhawks host the Montreal Canadiens tonight at United Center, looking to gain ground from a sluggish 3-6-0 start. Chicago enters as a slight home underdog in what projects as a higher-scoring contest, facing confirmed Montreal goaltender Jacob Fowler. With no fresh injury updates or lineup changes to report, the 22-year-old pivot continues centering the third line alongside Oliver Moore and Ryan Donato while handling secondary power-play minutes. Over his last four appearances, Nazar has registered one goal on five shots, seeking greater consistency after an up-and-down early stretch.

Our projection for tonight places Nazar around ~1 point with ~2 shots on goal and a small goal chance, adding up to roughly 2.5 fantasy points. His second-unit power-play role provides a slight scoring boost, but his bottom-six minutes keep his overall ceiling fairly restricted. In terms of weekly volume, Chicago plays only two total games this week, leaving just one remaining contest after tonight and capping his weekly outlook at around 4.0 fantasy points. Outside of deeper formats, fantasy managers should keep him on the sideline. Today’s action: Bench.
