28-Year-Old Right WingRW
Columbus Blue Jackets
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Olivier is a fourth-line forward who has some fantasy relevancy in certain situations thanks to his gritty play. He finished the 2023-24 campaign with five goals, 12 points, 70 PIM and 163 hits across 54 contests with the Blue Jackets. He has one season left on his two-year, $2.2 million contract and is expected to serve in largely the same role again this year. That should lead to him once again recording over 60 PIM and 150 hits, but he's unlikely to do too much offensively. Read Past Outlooks

Inks six-year deal
RWColumbus Blue Jackets
March 5, 2025
Olivier agreed to terms on a six-year, $18 million contract extension with Columbus on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Olivier is having a career year offensively, setting personal bests in goals (12), points (21) and hits (232) while averaging 14:26 of ice time. In addition, the 28-year-old winger adds plenty of grit to the Blue Jackets' bottom six, as he leads the league with 11 majors this year.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
A part-time player in Nashville over parts of his first three NHL seasons, Olivier -- a Mississippi native with dual citizenship -- was a regular for Columbus last year, appearing in 66 games before a lower-body injury ended his season in late March. Olivier's offensive production was minimal (five goals, 15 points), although he did chip in 178 hits. Impressed with what they saw, the Jackets inked Olivier to a new two-year, $2.2 million extension in June. The 26-year-old will again serve as a bottom-six option for the club in 2023-24.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
New contract imminent
RWColumbus Blue Jackets
March 4, 2025
Olivier and the Blue Jackets are finalizing a contract extension with general manager Don Waddell telling reporters Monday, "We're getting really close. We're hoping to get it wrapped up in the 24 hours or so," per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Olivier is riding a three-game point streak during which he generated two goals on five shots and one assist while dishing out 15 hits. Under his current contract, the 28-year-old winger is earning $1.1 million against the cap and would likely be due for a significant raise on his next deal.
