2025 Fantasy Outlook
Although Van Riemsdyk reached the 30-goal mark on two occasions over his career, that’s not the player he is anymore. Now 36 years old, Van Riemsdyk is entering the season armed with a one-year, $1 million contract with the Red Wings. He’ll probably serve primarily in a bottom-six capacity, though he might still see time on the second power-play unit. In that role, he might put up similar numbers to his 2024-25 Columbus totals of 16 goals and 36 points across 71 appearances. However, it would not be surprising to see him do somewhat worse or even spend some time as a healthy scratch. Read Past Outlooks

Won't play Thursday
Van Riemsdyk (not injury related) won't dress in Thursday's season opener against Montreal, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.
ANALYSIS
Van Riemsdyk has returned from the personal matter that caused him to miss most of training camp, but he was still placed on the non-roster list Monday to give him more time to get up to speed before playing. Van Riemsdyk might make his season debut Saturday versus Toronto.

Van Riemsdyk arrived in Boston last season and was a reasonable source of secondary scoring for the club. He appeared in 71 regular-season games, posting 11 goals and 38 points. He was particularly effective with the man advantage, producing 12 power-play points, his most since the 2020-21 campaign. Now 35 years old and 15 years into his excellent NHL career, JVR remained unsigned as of early August. It's unclear at this point if he plans on continuing to play, but van Riemdsyk should be a prime candidate for a training camp tryout if he wishes to go that route.
