Ottawa Senators
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Highmore played in seven NHL regular-season games in 2023-24, picking up a pair of assists. The 28-year-old forward is a depth player at best, as he has played in only nine games at the NHL level over the last two seasons. Highmore has excelled at the AHL level in the last two years, picking up 28 goals and 64 assists in 111 games for Springfield and Belleville. Highmore inked another one-year, two-way deal with Ottawa in the offseason and is expected to spend most, if not all, of his time at Belleville in 2024-25. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2018
Highmore appeared in 36 games for the Blackhawks in 2019-20, generating six points, 38 hits and 35 shots on goal. He failed to average more than 10 minutes of ice time per contest, and it's unlikely the undrafted 24-year-old forward takes a huge leap forward this year. Highmore will compete for a bottom-six job in training camp, but there's little to love here for fantasy managers. Expect his production across the board to be modest.
Highmore got his first taste of NHL action last season, potting two goals in 13 games with the Blackhawks, but he spent most of his time with Chicago's AHL affiliate, racking up 24 goals and 43 points in 64 contests. The undrafted winger will likely once again spend the majority of his campaign in the minors, but if he continues to produce at a high level with AHL Rockford, he could earn the occasional call-up to the big club. Highmore will be hard-pressed to carve out a significant role with the Blackhawks this season, so he can safely be ignored in all fantasy formats.
