Alex Vlasic

24-Year-Old DefensemanD
Chicago Blackhawks
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Vlasic had four goals and 30 points in 82 outings last season, nearly doubling his point total from his previous campaign. Much of the 24-year-old’s increase came on the power play, where he saw his production jump from two points in 2023-24 to 12. He offers versatility in leagues that use blocks -- he can provide about 150 per campaign -- but he’s far less impressive in terms of hits with just 59 last season. Vlasic is relatively young and part of a developing squad, so there is opportunity for growth. However, his position with the man advantage isn’t secure, as highlighted by his average of just 0:13 on the power play across his final 10 games last year, which coincided with the emergence of Sam Rinzel and Artyom Levshunov, so Vlasic exceeding his 30 points from 2024-25 isn’t as good a bet as it would initially look.

Adds two apples in win

Vlasic recorded two assists and fired two shots on net in Monday's 2-0 shutout win over Winnipeg.
ANALYSIS
Vlasic registered a pair of secondary helpers Tuesday, which snapped his five-game streak without a point. Overall, the 24-year-old blueliner is up to 10 assists, 12 points, 49 shots on goal and 71 blocks through 48 games this season. While Vlasic's start to the season hasn't gone as planned after his 30-point campaign a year ago, he should have plenty of opportunities to make a push towards that number thanks to his top-pairing role.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2022
Outside of Calder Trophy winner Connor Bedard, Vlasic was probably the most pleasant surprise for the Blackhawks a season ago. He came out of seemingly nowhere to earn first-pairing defensive minutes for the club, posting two goals, 16 points, 56 hits and 148 blocks in 76 games. Clearly impressed with his contributions, Chicago handed Vlasic a new six-year, $27.6 million contract extension in April. Vlasic doesn't contribute much with the man advantage, meaning his fantasy value is next to nil, but the 23-year-old Illinois native is going to help the Blackhawks win hockey games over the next several years.
Vlasic signed his entry-level deal with the Blackhawks upon the completion of his third year at Boston University last spring. He ended up playing in 15 games for the club down the stretch, managing one goal and one assist. Vlasic didn't appear overwhelmed in his brief NHL stint, although he averaged just 14:19 worth of ice time per game. He should be a regular for Chicago in 2022-23 in a bottom-four role, albeit one that is unlikely to provide any fantasy value. Vlasic will play the entirety of this upcoming season at age 21.
