2024 Fantasy Outlook
Mintyukov burst onto the scene with 10 points in his first 14 NHL contests, but as so often happens in Anaheim, the early success didn't last. The defenseman was never outright bad during the remainder of the campaign, but he finished at 28 points in 63 contests and missed 19 outings between two absences for a separated shoulder and a bone bruise in his lower body that ended his season. The good news is that Mintyukov should still be a power-play factor for the Ducks in 2024-25, though he may have to compete with Olen Zellweger for second-unit duties. Mintyukov's offense may not develop smoothly, but he still offers plenty of physicality and should have a chance at top-four minutes, so he's a decent lottery ticket pick for fantasy managers late in drafts.

Not ready for start of camp

September 18, 2024
Mintyukov is dealing with a lower-body injury and is day-to-day to begin training camp.
ANALYSIS
Mintyukov ended 2023-24 with a bone bruise, though it's unclear if the injury keeping him out early in camp is the same one. The 20-year-old defenseman produced 28 points in 63 games as a rookie last year and should be in contention for a top-four role this season. It's unclear at this time if he'll be ready to go when the Ducks begin their preseason slate Tuesday against the Sharks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to play Friday
DAnaheim Ducks
April 5, 2024
Mintyukov, who is dealing with a lower-body injury, didn't participate in Friday's morning skate, per Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune, which makes it unlikely that he'll play in the evening's tilt against Seattle.
ANALYSIS
It would be Mintyukov's third straight game out of the lineup. He has four goals, 28 points, 85 hits and 65 blocks in 63 outings in 2023-24. When Mintyukov is ready to return, he will likely serve in a top-four capacity.
