Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2018
2014
Santini spent the 2019-20 campaign in the Predators' organization, making two scoreless appearances in the NHL and adding 12 points in 54 outings with AHL Milwaukee. A veteran of 116 NHL contests, Santini will add depth to the Blues' defense corps in 2020-21, but he'll likely stick with the taxi squad if injuries don't wreak havoc. Santini's career high in points is 10, set back in 2017-18 with the Devils, so he's irrelevant from a fantasy perspective.
Santini's still trying to earn consistent playing time at the NHL level, having dressed for 38 games with the Devils in 2016-17 and 36 last season. The New York native hasn't flashed much offensive ability as a pro, logging 17 NHL points to go with just five points in 27 career AHL appearances. Santini appears destined to serve as either a third-pairing guy or the seventh defenseman this season; either way, his fantasy value should be very limited.
While fellow Devils top blueline prospect Damon Severson has elected to keep playing at the junior level, Santini is poised to begin his sophomore season at perennial NCAA powerhouse Boston College. As a freshman, Santini totaled three goals and eight assists over 35 games, numbers that weren’t earth-shattering, but perfectly respectable for a debut college season. At 6-foot-2, Santini possess ideal size on the blue line, and has shown good awareness and responsibility in his own zone. His offense may never catch up with his defensive skills, however, which could perhaps limit his upside as a fantasy asset once he reaches the NHL.
