2026 Fantasy Outlook
Tkachuk needed thumb surgery early in 2025-26, leading to him missing a significant chunk of time and a large drop in PIM. The winger posted 22 goals, 37 assists, 221 shots on net, 162 hits and 71 PIM over just 60 regular-season outings. He avoided fighting for the most part until after the Olympics, but he should get back to being the premier power winger in the NHL in 2026-27. Tkachuk combines point-per-game potential, elite physicality and high-volume shooting to generate high-end category coverage in fantasy. If he can stay healthy -- a big ask considering he has missed 32 games over the last two years combined -- he could push for 30-35 goals, 80 points, 300 shots, 250 hits and 120 PIM, especially after heading south and joining his brother in Florida. This likely means he won't be available at a discount in drafts, so you may have to pick him earlier than anticipated. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a seven-year, $57.5 million contract with the Senators in October of 2021. Traded to the Panthers in June of 2026.
Joining forces with brother
Tkachuk was acquired by the Panthers from the Senators on Sunday in exchange for three first-round picks and a second-round selection.
ANALYSIS
After rumors during the 2025-26 season of Tkachuk potentially wanting out of Ottawa, Florida general manager Bill Zito wasted little time in linking the power forward up with Brady's brother, Matthew Tkachuk. The blockbuster deal includes the No. 9 and No. 25 selections in this year's NHL Draft, a 2029 conditional first-round pick and a second-round selection in 2027 being sent to Ottawa. The 26-year-old Tkachuk is set to skate in a potent top six that will get back Aleksander Barkov, who missed the entirety of the 2025-26 campaign due to ACL and MCL injuries. It's also highly plausible that Tkachuk will work on the top power-play unit with his new team, which would give even more of a boost to the left-shot winger's fantasy value. Tkachuk has two seasons remaining on the seven-year, $57.5 million contract he signed with the Senators in October of 2021.

Tkachuk finally got a taste of the postseason in the 2024-25 season in what was, ironically, his least-productive individual season since 2020-21. The 25-year-old registered 29 goals and 26 assists in 72 regular-season games, a sizable dip from his 74-point campaign from 2023-24. The power forward continued his physical brand of hockey with his sixth consecutive season delivering over 200 hits. The Senators' captain was dangerous on the power play, scoring a career-high 14 goals with the man-advantage. Tkachuk must improve his play at even-strength in order to reach his sky-high potential, but he’s not even in the prime of his career yet. He is a staple on the top line and power play, and will continue to be for at least the duration of his seven-year contract signed in 2021. Tkachuk brings 90-point potential if he can stay healthy and keep his edgy play within the rule book.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to join his brother?
Tkachuk is close to being traded from Ottawa to Florida, according to Pierre LeBrun of TSN on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The Senators will reportedly receive three first-round picks and a second-round selection if the deal goes through. Tkachuk had 22 goals and 59 points in 60 games for Ottawa during the 2025-26 regular season. Brady's older brother, Matthew, plays for the Panthers, and they could form a frustrating duo to play against if they skate on the same line.
