Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2020
2018
With quantity over quality on the Maple Leafs' blue line, Mermis is likely to have a tough time getting into the lineup - if he's in the NHL at all. Last year was a career-best campaign for Mermis, who put up eight points in 47 contests with the Wild. The 30-year-old defenseman is unlikely to see anything more than a third-pairing role when he plays. At this point, a trade to a team with a thinner defense would be a best-case scenario for Mermis' playing time, but there's virtually no need for any fantasy manager to track his progress at the start of 2024-25.
Mermis opened his NHL account with four points in 10 games for the Devils last year. He also posted 19 points in 53 appearances with AHL Binghamton, but he's never been much of a threat for offense from the blue line. With the Wild, Mermis is likely to serve as a rotational depth option on the left side, but he's unlikely to unseat Carson Soucy from the third pairing. The 27-year-old Mermis will most likely end up on the taxi squad or back in the minors in 2020-21.
Mermis is a shifty 24-year-old defenseman who last played for the AHL's Roadrunners. While the Illinois native skated to a minus-2 rating and failed to dent the scoresheet over nine NHL games in 2017-18, Arizona granted the defenseman a one-year, two-way contract extension to signal that the organization is committed to helping him grow. Mermis seems like a longshot to gain fanfare in the fantasy realm, but stranger things have happened in hockey.
