23-Year-Old Left WingLW
Minnesota Wild
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The 2019 NHL Entry Draft has featured some players who were selected early but haven't developed as hoped yet, but then there are others like Boldy, who have turned into stars. Boldy has provided 75 goals and 171 points across 203 career games, including 29 markers and 40 assists in 75 outings last season. Entering the second campaign of his seven-year, $49 million contract, Boldy figures to be a key part of the Wild's offense throughout the life of that deal. Unfortunately, his 2024-25 season will have a delayed start after he was deemed week-to-week with a lower-body injury in late September. If he can stay healthy the rest of the way -- he did also miss some time in 2023-24 due to an upper-body injury -- then the 23-year-old should be able to surpass the 60-point mark for the third straight season.

Gathers assist in loss
LWMinnesota Wild
November 16, 2024
Boldy notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Stars.
ANALYSIS
Boldy, a natural winger, started the game as the first-line center. The 23-year-old won six of 13 faceoffs, though he had given up some faceoff duties later in the contest with Marco Rossi moving back up. The Wild's top six could be in flux for a bit as the team navigates the absences of Mats Zuccarello (lower body) and Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body). Boldy's helper was his first since Oct. 26 versus the Flyers, though he had six goals over eight contests in between assists. The 23-year-old is at 18 points, 61 shots on net, 12 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 17 appearances.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
In his first full NHL campaign, Boldy racked up 31 goals and 63 points across 81 games. He caught fire down the stretch, pocketing 14 goals with 21 points over his final 16 contests. During his 2021-22 rookie season, he scored 15 goals and 39 points in 47 contests. The 22-year-old winger saw a much larger role in the Wild's offense last year and has locked himself into a top-six spot moving forward. Boldy averaged 18:30 of ice time, with 3:48 of that coming on the power play. He tallied 26 power-play points as a result. Boldy will see enough volume that another 30-goal, 60-point performance feels likely.
Boldy made his NHL debut in early January as a 20-year-old and became an immediate impact player for Minnesota. All told, Boldy played 47 games, finishing with 15 goals and 39 points. Boldy's 13.3 percent shooting percentage was a tad high, but not outrageous, and the fact he saw 2:21 worth of power-play time a game serves to enhance his floor from a fantasy perspective. Boldy has a massive ceiling given his youth, although it could be another couple years before we see his true potential.
