2025 Fantasy Outlook
After a surprising 54-point effort in 2023-24, Kurashev's offensive production dropped precipitously in 2024-25, when he finished with 14 points in 51 appearances. His poor play took him from a top-six lock to a frequent healthy scratch as the Blackhawks brought in new forwards. Kurashev will get a fresh start in San Jose after being cut loose by Chicago in the offseason. There's a wide range of possibilities for Kurashev, given what he's shown in his five seasons, but he could struggle to stay in the lineup if his point production doesn't improve and he continues to struggle defensively.

Signed a one-year, $1.2 million contract with the Sharks in July of 2025.
Suffers injury Saturday
Kurashev (upper body) won't return to Saturday's game against Pittsburgh.
ANALYSIS
Kurashev logged only 8:03 of ice time in Saturday's contest before his exit. He entered the matchup with six goals and 15 points in 30 appearances. If Kurashev can't play against Calgary on Tuesday, Zack Ostapchuk could return to the lineup.

Kurashev was solid while season top-six usage in his fourth NHL season in 2023-24, picking up 18 goals, 36 assists, 19 power-play points and 128 shots on net while averaging 19:01 of ice time through 75 regular-season contests with Chicago. He should continue to see top-six minutes and healthy power-play usage in 2024-25, and with the Blackhawks seemingly making an effort this offseason to improve the talent surrounding Connor Bedard up front, it wouldn't be surprising to see the team score more goals in 2024-25 - Chicago finished last season with a league-worst 179 goals for. That should lead to more opportunities for Kurashev to write his name on the scoresheet next campaign, potentially giving him a chance to surpass the 20-goal and 60-point marks for the first time in his career next year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to play Tuesday
Kurashev will likely be a healthy scratch for Tuesday's game against the Canucks, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Kurashev hasn't been very productive early in the season, tallying a goal and a minus-6 rating while averaging 15:54 of ice time over six appearances. Head coach Luke Richardson wasn't very impressed with Kurashev's effort during Saturday's loss to Buffalo, so the 25-year-old will likely be held out for at least one game. Assuming Kurashev doesn't play, Lukas Reichel could see some additional work.
