Hockey season will be here before we know it and so will fantasy hockey drafts. NHL.com put together a list of the top 200 fantasy hockey players for the upcoming season and the Wild have five players on that list.
No surprise to see Kirill Kaprizov as the highest rated Wild player. He ranks 17th on the list and 15th among forwards. Joel Eriksson Ek is 49th on the list and 34th amongst forwards.
Mats Zuccarello is 104th and 74th among forwards, Matt Boldy is 107th and 76th among forwards. The only Wild defenseman on the list is Brock Faber. He ranks 23rd among all NHL defenders and 141st in the top 200.
Neither Marc-Andre Fleury nor Filip Gustavsson rank in the top 200 and neither of them land on NHL.com’s top 25 goalies list. The top 25 goalies list includes both New York Islanders goalies, both Vegas Golden Knights goalies, both Washington Capitals goalies, both Carolina Hurricanes goalies, and both New Jersey Devils goalies.
Jake Allen is projected to have a better fantasy hockey season than both Gustavsson and Fleury.
