2025 Fantasy Outlook
Schwindt secured a one-year contract with the Golden Knights in the offseason after recording one goal, eight points, 41 hits and a plus-3 rating while averaging 9:15 of ice time across 42 regular-season games. The right-shot forward has yet to make a name for himself in the NHL, and the addition of Colton Sissons via trade could cost Schwindt playing time in 2025-26. The 2019 third-round selection by Florida can safely be passed on in upcoming drafts, as Vegas’ deep forward group minimizes his fantasy appeal even if he plays regularly. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with the Golden Knights in July of 2025.
