Melchiori inked a one-year deal with Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk (KHL).
ANALYSIS
Melchiori hasn't appeared in an NHL game since 2016-17 when he was with Winnipeg, the club that took him in the third round of the 2010 NHL Draft. The 28-year-old defenseman is coming off a career year that featured new personal bests in assists (11) and points (17), but it wasn't enough to secure him a promotion from the Devils.

2014 Fantasy Outlook
Melchiori’s second season at AHL St. John’s was statistically a near carbon copy of his debut campaign, with the 22-year-old receiving a brief taste of NHL action in December with the Jets. As a left-handed defenseman, Melchiori benefits from the Jets’ lack of other blueline prospects of that left persuasion, but his limited offensive upside probably minimizes any long-term fantasy value he might hold. Another season at St. John’s likely beckons, but Melchiori should at least factor into the mix for a third-pairing spot with the Jets during training camp.
