2025 Fantasy Outlook
Merkulov suited up in six regular-season games with Boston in the 2024-25 campaign. He earned his first NHL point, an assist, while adding seven shots on goal and seven blocked shots. The 24-year-old forward has been productive offensively for AHL Providence in three straight seasons, including his 54-point effort over 59 games last year. He could be worth monitoring if he plays on a scoring line in the NHL, but he will probably spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors unless injuries or trades open a spot on the roster.

On waivers Friday
Merkulov was put on the waiver wire Friday.
ANALYSIS
Merkulov signed a two-way contract in the offseason, so this move is no surprise. He played in six games with Boston during the 2024-25 regular-season and picked up one assist. He will play at AHL Providence to start the season if he passes through waivers.
