2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cooley recorded a solid 44 points as a rookie in 2023-24, and he took a big step forward as a sophomore by supplying 25 goals and 63 points across 75 appearances with Utah. Taken with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, this is just the beginning of a promising career. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him grow further in 2025-26, perhaps generating a point per game while serving primarily on Utah’s first line. The only real downsides are that he doesn’t take a lot of shots relative to other high-end forwards -- he had 158 shots last season -- and he still needs to improve on the draw after posting a 44.7 percent win rate last year. However, those are trade-offs well worth making for the sake of having a player with so much offensive potential on your fantasy squad. Read Past Outlooks
Signed an eight-year, $80 million contract with the Mammoth in October of 2025.
Out for eight weeks
Cooley (lower body) was announced Thursday to be out for a minimum of eight weeks.
ANALYSIS
Cooley was previously labeled out indefinitely, and he now has a timetable. The 21-year-old has a small chance to return before the Olympic break, but more than likely, he won't be in action again prior to late February.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
It was an outstanding rookie campaign for Cooley, as he suited up in all 82 regular-season games for the Coyotes. He earned 20 goals and 24 assists, including 13 power-play points, to go with 151 shots on goal, 50 hits and 27 blocked shots. In the end, the center finished the year fourth in the rookie points standings, just missing out on being a Calder Trophy finalist behind eventual winner Connor Bedard, Brock Faber and Luke Hughes. The upcoming 2024-25 campaign could feel like a second rookie year for the 20-year-old Cooley as the team moves to Utah and its new digs at the Delta Center. Assuming the Pittsburgh native takes another step in his development, he is more than capable of improving upon his rookie numbers, making him a top-end fantasy target - though the threat of a sophomore slump is certainly still on the table.
