Fantasy Hockey Forecast: Shocking Breakouts and Unexpected Heroes of the 2025-26 NHL Season

I’ll make things a little bit bolder by adding some meat to the scenario: All three of them open 2025-26 together, meaning that none were traded over the summer. Pittsburgh does fine, but not quite good enough to be anything more than a wild-card hopeful. By the trade deadline, the first domino falls: Letang, having been asked to waive his no-trade clause, is moved. Crosby won’t be happy, but he’ll press forward with the Penguins. Malkin, who is a little older than Crosby and has shown his age more — although that’s not much of a knock given that almost everyone shows their age more than Crosby — will opt to either call it a career or conclude his playing days in the KHL after he finishes 2025-26 with Pittsburgh.
