2023 Fantasy Outlook
Niemelainen has just one assist over 43 NHL games across the last two seasons, and 21 points in 85 career AHL games. That kind of offense won't get anyone's attention in fantasy, and he's no lock for an NHL roster spot heading into 2023-24. The Oilers will likely want Philip Broberg pushing for an everyday role, leaving Niemelainen and Vincent Desharnais to compete for a spot on the NHL roster. The uncertainty in Niemelainen's role means he won't be on the fantasy radar to begin the season, and he's unlikely to push his way there during the year.
