Fantasy Summary

A big goaltender with strong lateral movement and solid puck-tracking. His positioning is a weakness, and he often finds himself straying from his net, leaving easy opportunities for opposing teams.

March 2025 – Colorado has signed Scheel to an NHL contract for the remainder of 2024-25. The 25-year-old has spent the majority of the season so far in the ECHL where he holds a .884 SV%. He has spent 11 games in the AHL as needed, and he has performed much better there, managing a .911 SV%. This move is mainly to ensure the minors squad has depth heading in the AHL playoffs, but Scheel has done well to earn a contract after bouncing to and from the ECHL. He is not fantasy relevant or worth drafting at this time. Hayden Soboleski

June 2022 – In his first full year of pro hockey, Scheel has put up decent numbers. Spending most of the season in the AHL (31 games), he put up a .902 save percentage, which isn’t great, however in a short six-game stint in the ECHL with the Idaho Steelheads, that went up to a .917. Still only 23, Scheel has a few more years of development in him, although, with questions around Brayden Holtby, Scheel could see some NHL time backing up Jake Oettinger. Aaron Itovitch
