Won't play in 2019-20
Eaves (illness) will miss the entirety of the 2019-20 campaign.
ANALYSIS
Eaves has been limited to just nine games over the past two campaigns due to various maladies and will be placed on long-term injured reserve at the start of the upcoming season. The 35-year-old forward only has one year remaining on his contract, so he'll almost certainly retire next offseason. If that ends up being the case, he'll finish his NHL career having racked up 132 goals and 242 points in 633 games spread over 14 seasons with six different teams.

Eaves entered the 2017-18 campaign looking to follow up a career year where he posted 32 goals and 51 points. However, the 34-year-old was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder that can lead to paralysis and was limited to just two games. Eaves is expected to make a full recovery and at least play out the final two years of his $6.3 million contract. He could be ready as early as mid-October, but fantasy owners that select Eaves should realize he'll need time to adjust to the NHL game after over a year away from the game.
