2025 Fantasy Outlook
Honzek debuted in the NHL last season for a five-game sample size at the start of the year before spending the rest of it with AHL Calgary. That didn’t go quite the way he had hoped, picking up just eight goals and 21 points in 54 games. The 16th overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, the talent is certainly there, and he brings an enviable 6-foot-4 frame to the table. However, the production at the professional level has yet to match it, and the 20-year-old is likely to start the season in the AHL again as a result of that. Should he perform better in the AHL, that puts him in a good position for a shot at more NHL time this season. Read Past Outlooks
Undergoes surgery
Honzek (upper body) underwent surgery Thursday that is expected to sideline him for up to six months, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
ANALYSIS
Honzek sustained an upper-body injury last weekend and landed on injured reserve. He was initially considered week-to-week, but he could be forced to miss the remainder of the regular season following his procedure. The 21-year-old made 18 appearances prior to sustaining his injury, recording two goals, two assists, 35 hits, six blocked shots and two PIM while averaging 12:21 of ice time.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Honzek was limited by injury in 2023-24, but he was great when healthy, supplying 10 goals and 31 points in 33 regular-season appearances with WHL Vancouver. Selected by Calgary with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, the 19-year-old has tremendous two-way potential and has an opportunity to make an immediate impact with the Flames this campaign. After a fantastic preseason, Honzek not only made the Opening Night roster but has potentially earned a spot on the top six. The Slovakia native is likely to have growing pains at the NHL level, but under ideal circumstances, he might be able to get to the 40-point mark this year. Just keep in mind that it's equally possible he'll prove to be not quite ready for the big league and ultimately spend big chunks of the season in the AHL, which he's eligible to be assigned to this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Headed to Worlds
Honzek will join Slovakia at the 2025 IIHF World Championship, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports Monday.
ANALYSIS
Honzek saw action in just five NHL games this year in which he failed to register a point while garnering six shots, six hits and two blocks. The 20-year-old winger was slightly more effective in the minors, generating 21 points in 52 games, but he'll likely need to bring more to the table next year if he wants to break into the NHL. Representing Slovakia at Worlds should help bolster his resume heading into training camp in the fall.
