2025 Fantasy Outlook
Werenski appeared in 81 regular-season games in 2024-25, and as expected, he achieved new heights offensively. Injuries have held him back, but his offensive upside has been ever-present. He produced 23 goals, 82 points, 298 shots on net and 131 blocked shots. Werenski ranked second among all defenders in goals and points while finishing eighth with 25 power-play points. He led the league with a career-high 26:45 of ice time per contest. If the 27-year-old has put his injury woes behind him, he should be an offensive force from the blue line in 2025-26, and potential fantasy managers will likely make him one of the first defenders off the board in drafts.

Two points in Thursday's win
Werenski scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Islanders.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old put the finishing touches on a career-best campaign by extending his point streak to six games. No player exemplified the Blue Jackets' stunning season better than Werenski -- after struggling to stay on the ice over the last few years due to injuries, the All-Star blueliner played 81 games and delivered a career-high 23 goals and 82 points, putting him second in the NHL among defensemen in both categories behind only Cale Makar. Werenski also established new career highs in shots on net (298), power-play points (25) and blocked shots (131).

2017
Werenski scored 11 goals and registered a career-high 57 points in 70 contests last season. He tied for sixth among all blueliners with 45 even-strength points. After being limited to just 13 appearances in 2022-23, Werenski's longest stretch on the sidelines of 2023-24 was a 10-game absence from Jan. 23-Dec. 29 due to an ankle injury. His ability to stay healthy has held back his fantasy value in the past, which will likely be the case again this campaign. Still, Werenski has proven to be a productive player, making him an intriguing value selection in fantasy drafts. In addition to being a superb offensive defender, he added 202 shots on net and 130 blocked shots last season. If Werenski can avoid long-term injuries, he could return to the 50-point plateau in 2024-25.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Planning to join Team USA

ANALYSIS
Werenski has already set a new personal best with 49 points through 64 games with Columbus this year. The blueliner last played for Team USA in 2019, going pointless in two games after the Jackets' were bounced from the playoffs.
