2025 Fantasy Outlook
The Oilers want to be tough to play against, and Frederic fits that bill. However, after a 40-point regular season in 2023-24, the physical winger was limited to 15 points in 58 regular-season appearances last year between the Bruins and the Oilers. Frederic has a couple of years under his belt as an effective third liner, and the Oilers committed to him on an eight-year deal. The 27-year-old should continue in a similar role, though any level of scoring success could bump him into a much more prestigious top-six spot. If he can get top-six minutes regularly, he's worth a sleeper pick in fantasy -- otherwise, he's an option in banger leagues primarily with limited appeal elsewhere. Read Past Outlooks
Signed an eight-year, $30.8 million contract with the Oilers in June of 2025.
Set to return Thursday
Frederic (undisclosed) is expected to be available for Thursday's game against Chicago, per Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels.
ANALYSIS
Frederic missed five straight games due to the injury. He has four goals, six points, 58 PIM and 170 hits in 67 outings with Edmonton in 2026-27. Josh Samanski is likely to be a healthy scratch Thursday due to Frederic's return.

2018
The 2023-24 campaign was a career year for Frederic, who set new personal bests with 18 goals, 22 assists, 82 games played and 204 hits. The physicality of the 26-year-old certainly bolsters his fantasy value in formats that utilize defensive stats. The knock on the St. Louis native's game is a lack of power-play opportunities, as he has notched just two points with the man advantage in his six-year NHL career. As such, even if Frederic can reproduce a 40-point campaign in 2024-25, he won't offer significant fantasy value. A third-line role seems likely for Frederic for most of the year but injuries could open up a top-six spot periodically - though he is far from a lock to earn a promotion even when injuries crop up among the forward ranks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Starting season on top line?
Frederic could start the 2025-26 season on the top line alongside Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Zach Hyman, who underwent wrist surgery in May, is expected to be out of the lineup until at least Nov. 1, so the Oilers will have to do some shuffling in their top six, which might benefit Frederic. According to Gregor, the plan is for McDavid and Draisaitl to start on a line together during the regular season, and Frederic will receive the first opportunity to play alongside them. The 27-year-old Frederic provides plenty of physicality when he's in the lineup, but his overall fantasy value could take a major boost if head coach Kris Knoblauch likes what he sees from the aforementioned trio during preseason action.
