2025 Fantasy Outlook
L'Heureux recorded five goals and 15 points with a minus-6 rating on a struggling Predators team last season. The 22-year-old played a fourth-line role, but he still managed to record 198 hits in just 62 games at 12:03 of ice time per night. The physical forward has had issues staying on the ice, be that via injury or suspension, and he'll likely continue to play a bottom-six role moving forward, but when he's healthy, he's an intimidating presence capable of cracking 200 hits in a season. That can be of value in some leagues even if he isn't much of a threat offensively. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Predators in July of 2021.
Sustains lower-body injury

Lower Body
November 8, 2025
L'Heureux suffered a lower-body injury and is expected to miss the next 4-6 weeks, the team announced Saturday.
ANALYSIS
L'Heureux was summoned from AHL Milwaukee on Tuesday to provide the team with forward depth due to the absence of Cole Smith (upper body). L'Heureux didn't end up dressing in a game for the Predators before sustaining this injury. Nashville will probably recall another player from the minors to serve as the team's new 13th forward.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Leads AHL in playoff scoring
CNashville Predators
May 31, 2024
L'Heureux will be in the mix to crack the Nashville lineup in 2024-25, as he leads the AHL in playoff scoring with 14 points, Emma Lingan of The Hockey News reports.
ANALYSIS
L'Heureux was selected 27th overall in the first round of the 2021 Draft by the Predators and has yet to play a game at the NHL level. He had 19 goals, 29 assists and 197 PIM in 66 games with AHL Milwaukee in his first professional season in 2023-24. The 21-year-old has taken his game to another level in the postseason and that bodes well for L'Heureux to make his NHL debut next season -- perhaps on Opening Night.
