2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ponomarev's first full season in the AHL was a rousing success. Playing nearly the entire year at age 20, Ponomarev racked up 24 goals and 46 points in 64 games. It was a shocking outcome considering Ponomarev is known more as a responsible two-way center than a scorer. The youngster spent some time in the KHL two seasons ago, which undoubtedly helped prepare him for life in the "A" last season. The No. 53 overall pick in the 2020 draft, Ponomarev has put himself in position for a recall to the Hurricanes at some point this coming season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fighting for roster spot
CPittsburgh Penguins
September 12, 2024
Ponomarev has a serious chance of earning a spot on the Penguins' Opening Night roster, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Ponomarev had nine goals and 30 points across 45 AHL contests between Tucson, Chicago and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in 2023-24. He also got a taste of NHL action with Carolina, supplying a goal and an assist in two regular-season appearances. Although he's primarily a center, Ponomarev is happy to shift to the wing if needed, which should help his chances of securing a roster spot. If he makes the team, it will likely be in a bottom-six capacity.
