2025 Fantasy Outlook
There was no outlook written for Valentin Zykov in 2025. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.

DOB 5/15/1995
Born St. Petersburg, Russia
Drafted 2nd Rd, #37 Overall in 2013

RWVegas Golden Knights  Foreign
December 24, 2019
The Golden Knights assigned Zykov to AHL Chicago on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Zykov's demotion suggests Cody Glass (concussion) is nearing a return to action. The 24-year-old Russian will continue to bounce between leagues this season, so he won't be a viable fantasy option.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2018
2014
Zykov was one of several AHL call-ups to get an extended look with the Hurricanes during the final few games of the 2017-18 regular season. For his part, Zykov showed well, racking up three goals, four assists and a plus-5 rating over that final 10-game stretch. The Canes then proceeded to sign the 23-year-old Russian to a two-year, one-way deal in June, making him a good candidate to earn a full-time roster spot with the big club in 2018-19. Zykov led the AHL in goals last season with 33 in 63 games, so he should be a good fit on a mediocre Hurricanes squad that needs all the scoring help it can get.
Zykov's a strong, puck-possession forward who isn't afraid to go to the net. His second year in the QMJHL might not have gone as well as some were hoping, but he still put up 63 points in 53 games and then added 22 points in 22 playoff games for good measure. He's certainly worth keeping an eye on in dynasty formats, but won't impact the Kings for a few more years.
