Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Peterson never got much of a chance to stick in the Stars' lineup, but he was productive once he got a chance with the Sharks. He finished the year with eight points in 12 NHL contests as well as 32 points in 52 outings at the AHL level. Given the Sharks' glaring lack of better options, the Swede should be considered a favorite to hold down at least a bottom-six job to begin 2023-24. That weak supporting cast doesn't bode well for his production, but the 24-year-old has the potential to be a decent depth forward for the team. If he can win a top-six job, he might work his way onto the fantasy radar, but that's not likely after San Jose bolstered its wing depth in the offseason.
Peterson surprised many by cracking Dallas' roster out of training camp a season ago. He scored a goal against the Rangers on Opening Night at Madison Square Garden and went on to play in 65 of the club's 82 regular-season games, finishing with 12 goals and 17 points. Set to play this entire season at age 23, Peterson figures to take on a more significant role than initially expected in 2022-23.
