Contract-Year Fantasy Hockey Targets for 2026-27

Contract years can create some interesting fantasy hockey opportunities — but not every player chasing a new deal is automatically a breakout candidate.

In this episode, we look at eight contract-year players who should be on fantasy managers’ radar heading into 2026-27. We break down the upside, risk, team context, role questions, and fantasy value for Bowen Byram, Nico Hischier, Jimmy Snuggerud, Ross Colton, Alex DeBrincat, Luke Evangelista, Ivan Demidov, and Zeev Buium.

Are these players legitimate draft targets, dynasty buys, or just names to monitor as the offseason unfolds?

Let us know what you think. Are you a believer in the contract-year boost?
