2025 Fantasy Outlook
After a fantastic sophomore season at Boston College in which he scored 30 goals in 37 games, Leonard struggled after he signed his entry-level contract, notching just one goal and one assist in 17 games, including the postseason. He lacked the ice time to make a big impact, averaging just over 14 minutes in his nine regular-season games and even less in the postseason. With a full offseason of runway to prepare for the 2025-26 season, the 20-year-old figures to grab a prominent spot in the Capitals' lineup of deep forwards and on the second power-play unit. That should allow him to use his gifted goal-scoring instincts more effectively, and combined with his willingness to throw his body around -- he had 29 hits in his 17 games -- it gives him one of the highest fantasy ceilings of any rookie in the league.

Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Capitals in March of 2025.
Back from injury with big bang
Leonard picked up two assists Tuesday in a 7-3 loss to the Rangers.
ANALYSIS
It was his first game back after missing seven with facial and upper-body injuries. Leonard had started to flash greatness right before he got hurt -- he had a four-point effort the game before he got hurt and seven points, including five assists, in a four-game streak. Leonard is an impressive rookie this season -- his 0.67 points/games played is third behind only Ivan Demidov (0.81) and Beckett Sennecke (0.76) on the rookie scoring list.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to debut Tuesday
Leonard will likely sign with the Capitals on Monday, and he's expected to make his NHL debut against Boston on Tuesday, David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reports.
ANALYSIS
Leonard was the eighth overall pick by Washington in 2023, and he's spent this season at Boston College. He recorded 30 goals, 49 points and 46 PIM over 37 appearances at Boston College this year, and he'll likely get some NHL experience to close out the season after the Eagles were knocked out of the NCAA Tournament early.
