2024 Fantasy Outlook
Taken by the Wild with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft, Rossi spent a couple of seasons dominating the AHL before establishing himself as a full-time player at the top level. He did well in his first full NHL campaign, recording 21 goals, 40 points and 47 PIM across 82 contests while averaging a respectable 16:44 of ice time. The soon-to-be 23-year-old spent some of the past season on a line with Kirill Kaprizov and Mats Zuccarello and will likely log an even greater portion of the 2024-25 campaign in that role. Rossi has significant untapped upside, so when you consider his potential and the opportunities he's likely to get, there's plenty to like here. It'd be a gamble to pencil him in for 60 points this season, but it's also not unreasonable to hope for that kind of jump in production. Read Past Outlooks

Game taking another step forward

November 23, 2024
Rossi scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Calgary.
ANALYSIS
Rossi was Mr. Clutch, scoring a five-hole goal with 34 seconds left in the third period to force overtime. He's taken the next step this season after putting up 40 points in 82 regular-season games in 2023-24. So far, Rossi has 17 points (six goals, 11 assists) and 37 shots in 20 appearances this campaign, and he's starting to contribute on the power play. His assist came with the man advantage, where he has three points in his last seven outings. He won't deliver many hits or blocks, and he's still working at improving on faceoffs, but Rossi might be on the verge of fulfilling his draft-day promise as a top-10 pick.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Rossi missed the entire 2020-21 season due to the side effects of a positive COVID-19 test, so all that mattered this past year was that he returned to full health. He passed that test with flying colors, playing 63 games for Minnesota's AHL affiliate in Iowa and posting 53 points. Rossi also saw a brief two-game stint with the Wild. Rossi was widely viewed as the most NHL-ready player in the 2020 draft behind No. 1 overall pick Alexis Lafreniere, so he should have a real chance to crack the Wild lineup this coming season. Rossi, the No. 9 overall pick in that same draft, is a worthy dart throw in deeper fantasy formats.
There was talk of Rossi potentially jumping straight to the NHL after being the No. 9 overall pick by Minnesota in 2020, but the Austrian developed serious side effects after testing positive for COVID-19 and ended up missing the entire 2020-21 season. Rossi had to take things extremely slowly before returning to the ice, but he isn't expected to have any restrictions as the 2021-22 campaign begins. However, it's essentially impossible for the Wild to count on Rossi this year considering all the time he's missed. His time away from the game won't impact his long-term ceiling, but it seems likely to be at least another calendar year before those in redraft leagues should take a flier on Rossi.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be moved for right offer
CMinnesota Wild
June 4, 2024
Rossi's name continues to circle in trade rumors, and he could be traded if the Wild receive a significant offer, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Rossi is coming off a fantastic rookie campaign in which he notched 21 goals and 19 helpers in 82 games while also chipping in six power-play points. The 22-year-old center would likely return strong value for the Wild but would potentially leave a hole in the middle of the second line. Still, Minnesota has a handful of center prospects in the pipeline according to Russo, which could entice the club to move Rossi for the right price.
