Washington Capitals
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Protas had a modest breakout in 2023-24, earning 29 points and 113 shots on net over 78 regular-season contests. He's steadily gained more responsibility with the Capitals over the last three years, but Protas' ceiling remains limited by a lack of power-play time -- he averaged just 15 seconds per game with the man advantage last year. Protas is likely to remain in a middle-six role in 2024-25, so it's fair to question how much more growth he can show without a significantly larger role. Expect roughly 30 points without much additional production in the non-scoring categories, leaving his fantasy value to deep formats. Read Past Outlooks

Notches two points in blowout win
CWashington Capitals
November 2, 2024
Protas tallied a goal and an assist while logging 15:19 of ice time during Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
ANALYSIS
Protas has three consecutive multi-point outings and has managed 11 points in 10 games to start the season. The 6-foot-6, 225-pound winger has flourished since being promoted to the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Dylan Strome. Protas could break out offensively in 2024-25 if he can maintain a top-six role on the scorching-hot Capitals.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to be scratched Friday
CWashington Capitals
January 6, 2023
Protas is expected to be a healthy scratch Friday against Nashville, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press.
ANALYSIS
Protas played in Washington's first 41 games. He has three goals and 10 points while averaging 10:52 of ice time this season. With Nicklas Backstrom, who has a hip injury, and Tom Wilson, who is dealing with a knee injury, close to returning to the Capitals' lineup, Protas might be reassigned to the minors in the not too distant future.
