Fantasy Hockey Exclusive: Surprising Contenders for 2025-26 Top-12 Rankings Revealed!
3. Leon Draisaitl, C/LW, Edmonton Oilers
Like McDavid, Draisaitl dealt with more injury issues in 2024-25 than in previous seasons, but he shouldn’t have an injury-prone label going into the 2025-26 campaign. Draisaitl has topped the 100-point plateau six times, including four straight seasons. He has reached the 50-goal mark on four occasions and is on track to win the Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy for the first time. Having eligibility as a winger gives him additional value.
4. Nikita Kucherov, RW, Tampa Bay Lightning
Kucherov has been healthy for three consecutive campaigns, and his fantasy stock has risen dramatically. He has been comfortably surpassing 100 points while topping 80 helpers twice and hitting 100 assists in 2023-24. Since the 2022-23 campaign, Kucherov has led the league in power-play points. Fantasy managers wouldn’t be wrong to select him sooner, though, especially if a right-wing forward is an early roster priority.
