Ethen Frank

27-Year-Old Left WingLW
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Called up to the NHL in January after compiling 20 goals and 28 points in 35 games with AHL Hershey, Frank deserved his promotion. The 27-year-old has scored at least 20 goals in each of his last three seasons with the Bears, so he could push for a more prominent role with the Capitals this year. Frank ended up with four goals, seven points and a plus-3 rating across 24 regular-season contests after being elevated from the minors. While the winger will need to continue to earn the trust of Washington’s coaching staff, he’s a name to keep an eye on if he remains on the roster out of training camp. Frank would probably need a middle-six job to have a substantial impact in fantasy, though. Read Past Outlooks

Frank registered an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.
ANALYSIS
Frank missed four games due to an upper-body injury. He returned to a fourth-line role and saw 12:19 of ice time in this contest. The 27-year-old is not guaranteed a spot in the lineup, as he'll have to compete with Sonny Milano for playing time. Frank has two helpers, three shots on net, four PIM, three blocked shots and two hits over four appearances this season.
