2023 Fantasy Outlook
Montreal's pletheora of injuries in 2022-23 allowed Pezzetta to rack up 15 points in 63 contests, numbers similar to his 11 points in 51 outings a year before. He's been just a fourth-line player over those two campaigns, and it's tough to expect a massive breakout at age 25 given his lack of a prominent role. If the Canadiens can stay relatively healthy as a team, Pezzetta may not even have a place in the lineup on a nightly basis. He will provide plenty of physicality after racking up 239 hits last season, and a two-year contract gives him some job security, but he's not an option for fantasy managers. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a two-year, $1.625 million contract extension with the Canadiens in June of 2023.
Won't return to Tuesday's game

Upper Body
April 16, 2024
Pezzetta (upper body) won't finish Tuesday's game versus the Red Wings.
ANALYSIS
Pezzetta will end the campaign with 12 points in 61 appearances. He rarely saw anything more than fourth-line minutes with the Canadiens this season. Pezzetta is under contract for 2024-25, so he should be in contention to once again fill a bottom-six spot.

CMontreal Canadiens
November 29, 2023
Pezzetta is slated to be a healthy scratch Wednesday versus Columbus.
ANALYSIS
Pezzetta has a goal, three points, 14 PIM and 54 hits in 17 contests while averaging 7:48 of ice time this campaign. He was in the lineup for Montreal's past five games. Joel Armia is expected to draw into the lineup Wednesday as a member of the fourth line, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Pezzetta dress Thursday against Florida, possibly at Armia's expense.
