2023 Fantasy Outlook
Eyssimont will join Nick Paul and Tanner Jeannot on the Bolts' third line in 2023-24. He won't deliver in traditional categories but should give you 150 each of hits and shots, maybe more. That is, if he sticks with the team the full season. Eyssimont had just one NHL game under his belt before last season, and the 26-year-old rookie jumped between three NHL teams in 2022-23. He needs to perform, or his spot will be given to someone else. Given he shot just a hair over four percent last season, there is some room for growth if he can increase his shot volume.

Two points in win

Eyssimont had a goal and an assist Thursday in a 7-4 victory over the Canadiens. He also picked up four PIM.
ANALYSIS
His goal was pure determination and the epitome of never giving up. Eyssimont pushed the game to 2-1 in the first period when he drove the net and jammed the puck off Cayden Primeau's stick and up and over the netminder. And Eyssimont's PIM came in the third when he mistakenly thought Arber Xhekaj was the cause of Brandon Hagel's injury and chased him down to throw fists. But Xhekaj was an innocent bystander, as Steven Stamkos had actually slammed into an unsuspecting Hagel. It's a great demonstration of why Eyssimont is a fabulous teammate -- he stands up for his guys, and he came within a referee's discretion of a Gordie Howe hat trick Thursday. The goal was his 11th of the season.
