2025 Fantasy Outlook
Called up to the NHL in January after compiling 20 goals and 28 points in 35 games with AHL Hershey, Frank deserved his promotion. The 27-year-old has scored at least 20 goals in each of his last three seasons with the Bears, so he could push for a more prominent role with the Capitals this year. Frank ended up with four goals, seven points and a plus-3 rating across 24 regular-season contests after being elevated from the minors. While the winger will need to continue to earn the trust of Washington’s coaching staff, he’s a name to keep an eye on if he remains on the roster out of training camp. Frank would probably need a middle-six job to have a substantial impact in fantasy, though. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $4 million contract extension with the Capitals in March of 2026.
Unavailable Tuesday
Frank (lower body) is day-to-day and won't play against St. Louis on Tuesday, according to Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
ANALYSIS
Frank will miss at least one game after being injured in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado. He has produced 12 goals, 24 points, 90 shots on net, 43 blocked shots and 50 hits through 60 appearances this season. With Frank unavailable, Ivan Miroshnichenko will suit up versus the Blues on Tuesday.
