2025 Fantasy Outlook

There was no outlook written for Eric Nilson in 2025. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.

DOB 5/11/2007

Swede picked in Round 2

CAnaheim Ducks College

June 28, 2025

Nilson was the 45th overall pick by Anaheim in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.

ANALYSIS
Scouts were hoping for Nilson to do more offensively this campaign -- he barely averaged a point per game (12 goals and 38 points in 37 regular-season appearances) -- in the Swedish Jr. league. However, he's always earned high marks for his hockey IQ, and the general consensus is that he has more long-term scoring ability than we saw in his draft year. The biggest concern at this point is that Nilson is very light at roughly 6-foot-0 and 155 pounds, which can lead to him getting pushed around by opposing defenders. He needs to add a good 25-30 pounds of muscle to his frame in order to compete at the NHL level. Nilson is committed to Michigan State.
