2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bernard-Docker missed a chunk of the 2024-25 campaign due to an ankle injury, but he also wasn’t always utilized when healthy, resulting in him finishing with two goals, eight points, 17 PIM, 32 shots, 30 hits and 50 blocks across 40 regular-season outings between Ottawa and Buffalo. Now with Detroit, Bernard-Docker will be in the mix for a third-pairing spot, but it wouldn’t be surprising if he ends up finding himself moving in and out of the lineup. If he does play regularly, the 25-year-old can be a solid source of blocks -- he had 156 in 72 appearances with Ottawa in 2023-24. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year, $875,000 contract with the Red Wings in July of 2025.
Collects first helper
Bernard-Docker recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
ANALYSIS
Bernard-Docker earned his first helper in five outings this season. The 25-year-old appears to have momentum to keep a third-pairing spot over Travis Hamonic early in the season. Bernard-Docker had eight points in 40 regular-season appearances between Ottawa and Buffalo last year, and he offers minimal upside in fantasy since he doesn't add much in the way of non-scoring production.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
A first-round pick (26th overall) in 2018, Bernard-Docker was a regular for the first time for the Senators a season ago, appearing in 72 of 82 regular-season games. He managed just four goals and 14 points, although Bernard-Docker did add 62 hits and 156 blocked shots. Set to play the entirety of this upcoming season at age 24, JBD seems likely to battle veteran Travis Hamonic for a spot on Ottawa's third defensive pairing to begin the year. The winner will have zero fantasy appeal.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely headed for Buffalo
Bernard-Docker and Josh Norris are reportedly being traded to Buffalo from Ottawa on Friday, Kevin Weekes of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Bernard-Docker has been out of action since Dec. 28 due to an ankle injury. While the defenseman has been cleared from his injury, he's yet to actually see any minutes on the Sens' blue line, and now it appears his time in Ottawa has come to a close. Even when healthy, the Alberta native has offered limited offensive upside, generating just four points in his 25 games this year.
