23-Year-Old DefensemanD
Chicago Blackhawks
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Outside of Calder Trophy winner Connor Bedard, Vlasic was probably the most pleasant surprise for the Blackhawks a season ago. He came out of seemingly nowhere to earn first-pairing defensive minutes for the club, posting two goals, 16 points, 56 hits and 148 blocks in 76 games. Clearly impressed with his contributions, Chicago handed Vlasic a new six-year, $27.6 million contract extension in April. Vlasic doesn't contribute much with the man advantage, meaning his fantasy value is next to nil, but the 23-year-old Illinois native is going to help the Blackhawks win hockey games over the next several years.

Logs power-play helper
DChicago Blackhawks
November 3, 2024
Vlasic recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal and five blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
ANALYSIS
Vlasic has helpers in back-to-back games for the second time this season. He's earned five assists over his last seven outings and a total of seven helpers through 13 contests overall. The 23-year-old isn't just producing decent offense -- he has added 12 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating in a top-four role. The presence of Seth Jones limits Vlasic to the second power-play unit, but it's not hampering the youngster's performance.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Vlasic signed his entry-level deal with the Blackhawks upon the completion of his third year at Boston University last spring. He ended up playing in 15 games for the club down the stretch, managing one goal and one assist. Vlasic didn't appear overwhelmed in his brief NHL stint, although he averaged just 14:19 worth of ice time per game. He should be a regular for Chicago in 2022-23 in a bottom-four role, albeit one that is unlikely to provide any fantasy value. Vlasic will play the entirety of this upcoming season at age 21.
