2026 Fantasy Outlook
Brazeau brought gritty reliability while producing a career year in his first season for the Penguins. He put up 17 goals, 17 assists, 104 shots on net, 90 hits and 44 blocked shots over 64 regular-season games. That should be enough to make Brazeau at least a middle-six regular to begin 2026-27, though it's unlikely he'll shoot 16.3 percent again. The 28-year-old forward doesn't stand out anywhere, and what he did last season is probably close to his peak performance. Expect roughly 30 points with 100-plus hits, 120 shots and a roughly even plus-minus rating if Brazeau is able to stay healthier. That'll give him fantasy appeal in deeper formats. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $3 million contract with the Penguins in July of 2025.
Scores in Tuesday's win
Brazeau scored a goal on two shots, added three hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Red Wings.
ANALYSIS
Brazeau was quiet after an upper-body injury cost him four games in March, going scoreless in his first seven contests back. He ended the month on a high note with four points, five shots on net and six hits over his last two outings. For the season, the 28-year-old is up to 17 goals, 34 points, 100 shots on net, 82 hits, 39 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating over 57 appearances. Brazeau is currently in a third-line role, so he'll likely continue to provide depth scoring rather than playing a leading role.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Brazeau was dealt to the Wild from the Bruins in 2024-25 and finished the regular season with 11 goals, 22 points, 123 hits and a minus-9 rating over 76 total appearances between the two teams. The 6-foot-6 forward found in a new home in the offseason, as he signed a two-year, $3 million contract with the Penguins. Brazeau may not be a lineup regular in 2025-26, and the Penguins are expected to finish toward the bottom of the league standings, so it’s best to avoid the right-shot forward in most formats, unless he's able to carve out a middle-six role or better with power-play time.
