2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tkachuk finally got a taste of the postseason in the 2024-25 season in what was, ironically, his least-productive individual season since 2020-21. The 25-year-old registered 29 goals and 26 assists in 72 regular-season games, a sizable dip from his 74-point campaign from 2023-24. The power forward continued his physical brand of hockey with his sixth consecutive season delivering over 200 hits. The Senators' captain was dangerous on the power play, scoring a career-high 14 goals with the man-advantage. Tkachuk must improve his play at even-strength in order to reach his sky-high potential, but he’s not even in the prime of his career yet. He is a staple on the top line and power play, and will continue to be for at least the duration of his seven-year contract signed in 2021. Tkachuk brings 90-point potential if he can stay healthy and keep his edgy play within the rule book. Read Past Outlooks

Set to miss at least four weeks
Tkachuk (wrist) will be out of action for at least four weeks, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Tkachuk sustained the injury in Monday's 4-1 loss to Nashville. The medical team is still evaluating whether surgery is necessary, which could extend the Ottawa captain's time on the shelf. The 26-year-old winger has registered three assists, 10 shots on goal and 10 hits through three appearances this season. Drake Batherson (upper body) will replace Tkachuk in Wednesday's lineup against Buffalo.

Which Tkachuk brother is right for you? Matthew's longer track record might lead to him being taken earlier in most fantasy drafts, but is that fair? Brady, the younger Tkachuk, had 37 goals and 74 points last season, making it the third straight campaign he finished with at least 30 markers. Entering his age-25 campaign, it wouldn't be shocking to see him flirt with the 40-goal milestone and record over 80 points. Compared to Matthew, Brady will get you more shots, roughly double the hits (he's finished with over 240 in each of the past five years while Matthew's career high is 151) and more PIM while the elder brother should lead in plus-minus with the superior Panthers. Ultimately, Brady is a near-perfect substitute for his brother and should be valued as such.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Seeking second opinion
Tkachuk, who is expected to miss at least four weeks after suffering a wrist injury Monday, is seeking a second opinion before deciding if he should undergo surgery, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Tkachuk might end up on the shelf for longer if he ends up needing surgery. The 26-year-old was off to a strong start before getting hurt, registering three assists in three outings this year. Michael Amadio might play a bigger role while Tkachuk is unavailable.
