Uvis Balinskis

28-Year-Old DefensemanD
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Balinskis made his NHL debut last season with the Panthers, picking up a goal and two assists in 26 regular-season appearances. Balinskis started the season with the Panthers, playing in 18 of 29 games, before he was demoted to AHL Charlotte. He scored three times while adding 18 helpers in 37 contests with the Checkers before he was recalled to finish out the regular season. Balinskis is likely a sixth or seventh defenseman at best with the Panthers this season, and could see more AHL action to keep him sharp. He has little fantasy value in 2024-25. Read Past Outlooks

November 2, 2024
Balinskis notched an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Stars in Finland.
ANALYSIS
Balinskis hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since Opening Night. The defenseman is seeing consistent power-play usage, but it hasn't helped his offense. The 28-year-old is up to two assists, nine shots on net, 11 hits, six blocked shots, seven PIM and a minus-1 rating through 13 appearances. He had just three points in 26 regular-season outings in 2023-24, his first year in the NHL, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to have a sudden uptick in scoring.
