20-Year-Old CenterC
Columbus Blue Jackets
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The former No. 12 overall pick in 2021, Sillinger had a tough year in 2022-23. He had just three goals and 11 points in 64 games. The lowlight of his season was a 45-game goalless drought from mid-November to mid-March. That said, expectations were probably a bit out of hand after Sillinger's 16-goal, 31-point rookie campaign as an 18-year-old. Sillinger will play this entire season at age 20, so there's no need to panic, but it's far from a guarantee he will start the 2023-24 campaign with the big club. Either way, Sillinger has no fantasy value in redraft formats. Read Past Outlooks

Snaps nine-game point drought

March 28, 2024
Sillinger scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 3-2 loss to Pittsburgh.
ANALYSIS
It was a goal-scorer's goal. Sillinger dropped to a knee for a one-timer on a 3-on-1 rush in the second period that pushed the score to 2-1 in favor of Columbus. The points Thursday snapped a nine-game point drought and a 12-game goal slump for Sillinger. He isn't a consistent scorer yet, but we all need to remember Sillinger's still just 20 years old.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not expected to play for Canada
CColumbus Blue Jackets
December 7, 2022
Sillinger isn't expected to be loaned to Team Canada for the 2023 World Junior Championship, per Scott Wheeler of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Sillinger has two goals and five points in 24 games with Columbus this season. He'd serve in a major role if he was loaned to Canada, especially compared to the 12:57 of ice time Sillinger's averaging with the Blue Jackets, but Columbus likely feels that the experience gained from playing in the NHL is worth more than the increased minutes.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Selected No. 12 overall by Columbus in the 2021 Draft, Sillinger immediately stepped into the lineup as an 18-year-old and performed exceptionally well given his youth. He finished the year with 16 goals and 31 points in 79 games. Sillinger's minus-22 rating was horrific and the Jackets were careful about not overloading him with too much playing time, but both of those things will correct themselves over time. It will be interesting to see how much Columbus is willing to increase Sillinger's role this coming season. He's unquestionably one of the organization's most valuable long-term assets, although he's still a better keeper/dynasty prospect than redraft pick.
