Max Crozier

25-Year-Old DefensemanD
Tampa Bay Lightning
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Crozier doesn't have an immediately obvious path to the NHL in 2025-26, but he should be one of the first call-ups when injuries strike. He made five regular-season appearances with Tampa Bay last season, failing to record a point while adding eight shots on net, 11 hits and six blocked shots. He also posted 34 points in 52 regular-season outings for AHL Syracuse. Crozier re-signed for three years in June, but he's on a two-way contract this season, so he'll be looking to make a good impression whenever he gets the chance with the Lightning. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $2.325 million contract with the Lightning in June of 2025.
