2024 Fantasy Outlook

Balinskis made his NHL debut last season with the Panthers, picking up a goal and two assists in 26 regular-season appearances. Balinskis started the season with the Panthers, playing in 18 of 29 games, before he was demoted to AHL Charlotte. He scored three times while adding 18 helpers in 37 contests with the Checkers before he was recalled to finish out the regular season. Balinskis is likely a sixth or seventh defenseman at best with the Panthers this season, and could see more AHL action to keep him sharp. He has little fantasy value in 2024-25. Read Past Outlooks

Two helpers against Blueshirts

December 31, 2024

Balinskis picked up two assists in Monday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.

ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old blueliner helped set up tallies by Mackie Samoskevich in the first period and Jesper Boqvist in the second. It was Balinskis' first multi-point effort since Nov. 7, snapping a slump that had seen him record just one point (a goal) in his prior 10 appearances. On the season, he's produced a goal and 10 points in 35 contests with 48 shots on net, 27 hits, 22 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a minus-6 rating.
