The 2026-27 Projections Series continues with the Los Angeles Kings, Minnesota Wild, Montreal Canadiens and Nashville Predators.

Nate and Blake break down the fantasy outlook for every relevant player across all four teams, including projected lines, power-play deployment, coaching changes, breakout candidates, draft values and their top three targets from each roster.

In this episode:

• What Peter Laviolette’s arrival could mean for Artemi Panarin, Brandt Clarke, Quinton Byfield, Adrian Kempe and the new-look Kings offense

• How Minnesota’s changing roster impacts Kirill Kaprizov, Matt Boldy, Joel Eriksson Ek, Brock Faber, Ryan Hartman and Bobby Brink

• Just how high Ivan Demidov can climb alongside Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, Juraj Slafkovsky and Lane Hutson

• Whether Roman Josi, Mavrik Bourque and Luke Evangelista can provide major fantasy value in Nashville

• The biggest differences between Nate and Blake’s projections

• Our top fantasy targets from LAK, MIN, MTL and NSH
