Jonatan Berggren

Berggren regressed in 2023-24, as he spent most of the season with Grand Rapids, where he managed 24 goals and 56 points in 53 regular-season contests, good for 23rd in AHL scoring. He saw action in only 12 games with Detroit - scoring twice with four assists - after picking up 15 goals and 28 points in 67 regular-season appearances during his rookie season in 2022-23. The loss of Robby Fabri and Daniel Sprong increase his chances of staying in the NHL this season, but he needs to play on one of the top three lines in order to be productive. Berggren should remain on the waiver wire after your fantasy draft as there are too many question marks as to where he will play in the lineup.

It didn't draw much in the way of headlines, but Berggren quietly put together a solid rookie season at age 22. He played in 67 of 82 games for the Wings, finishing with 15 goals and 28 points. He added nine points with the man advantage. It will be interesting to see if the additions of Alex DeBrincat and Daniel Sprong and the presumed return to full health of Robby Fabbri have any impact on Berggren's deployment in 2023-24. It's not out of the realm of possibility Detroit could have him start the year with AHL Grand Rapids if he doesn't earn a top-nine role out of training camp.
