2025 Fantasy Outlook
With Pittsburgh struggling defensively, Shea got an opportunity to grow into a larger role in 2024-25. He was largely overmatched early in the season, picking up just two assists with a minus-7 rating over 22 appearances through the end of January. He finished the year stronger, earning three points in his last 17 outings while adding a viable minus-2 rating. There's no guarantee the 28-year-old will be a regular in 2025-26, especially if a prospect like Owen Pickering steps up. Shea likely won't contribute enough in any category to make a big impact in fantasy. Read Past Outlooks

Collects assist in opener
Shea recorded an assist, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rangers.
ANALYSIS
Shea ended 2024-25 in a top-four role, and that's where he started 2025-26 as well, logging 22:31 of ice time in the season opener. The 28-year-old had just five points in 39 outings last year, so he shouldn't be considered a significant scoring threat on the blue line. Shea should still be able to maintain a sizable role as long as he takes care of business in his own zone, but he offers minimal fantasy appeal since he doesn't stand out in any one area.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Heading into training camp, Shea was likely viewed as a long shot to make the Penguins; Opening Night roster, especially with the emergence of Harrison Brunicke. Instead, the 27-year-old Shea will be with the team when it kicks off the season against the Rangers on Oct. 9. Even with a spot on the roster, Shea could struggle for regular minutes, likely serving as the seventh defenseman. Even if he does play, he probably shouldn't be expected to offer much in terms of fantasy value given his limited offensive upside.
