2025 Fantasy Outlook
Fabbro started last season with Nashville, appearing in six games without recording a point. The blueliner was subsequently waived by the Predators in November and immediately scooped up by Columbus. The 27-year-old went on to produce nine goals, 26 points, 136 blocked shots and a plus-23 rating over 62 outings with his new team. The British Columbia native was rewarded with a four-year contract from the Blue Jackets in June. The two-way rearguard certainly benefited from skating next to a star in Zach Werenski, and that pair will likely remain together in 2025-26. That should do wonders for Fabbro’s fantasy value over a full season, and it might be a surprise if he doesn’t reach the 30-point threshold for the first time in his career. Fabbro is a relatively steady source of blocked shots as well -- he has recorded at least 105 in three of the last four years. Read Past Outlooks

Overall
Signed a four-year, $16.5 million contract with the Blue Jackets in June of 2025.
Still sidelined Friday
Fabbro (lower body) will not be in the lineup versus Chicago on Friday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
ANALYSIS
Fabbro will miss his fifth straight game due to his lower-body injury. With the Jackets heading into a back-to-back, it seems unlikely the 27-year-old blueliner will be available versus the Blues on Saturday either. Prior to his absence, Fabbro was struggling to produce, managing just one point in his last 16 contests.

Having recently completed his fifth full NHL season, Fabbro's numbers were down across the board. He was limited to just 56 games, managing three goals and 13 points. His ice time has dipped three straight seasons, all the way down to 16:21 per game in 2023-24. This was a guy that averaged north of 19 minutes each of his first three years in the league. With one year left on his contract before unrestricted free agency, Fabbro is a candidate to lose additional playing time to fellow righties Alexandre Carrier and Luke Schenn. He's not a fantasy option in any format.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Progressing toward extension
Fabbro and the Blue Jackets have made progress on a long-term extension, Andy Strickland of FanDuel Sports Network reports Monday.
ANALYSIS
Over the second half of the season, the expectation was that Fabbro would receive an extension offer from the Blue Jackets, but a deal wasn't reached before the end of the year. However, the two sides have apparently maintained contact to begin the offseason and could reach an agreement before Fabbro becomes a free agent. Over 62 appearances with Columbus last year, Fabbro logged nine goals, 17 assists, 136 blocked shots, 66 hits and 40 PIM.
