Fantasy Summary
Mobile, two-way defenceman with a booming shot, though may need the PP to be effective at higher levels.

June 2025—Noted for his shot, transition play, and offensive involvement, Boumedienne’s skillset hasn’t translated to the NCAA game as well as hoped.
Coming into the season, it’s fair to say that Boumedienne was seen among the likes of Frondell, Eklund and Ekberg as the cream of the Swedish crop. While his early play for the Terriers didn’t reflect that, Boumedienne certainly improved over the course of the season.
That said, that was mostly an improvement to a competent college defender from a young defender who seemed far out of his depth. At this point, it seems unreasonable to project Boumedienne as dynamic offensive catalyst at higher levels. Continued refinements to his defensive positioning and physicality will likely dictate his professional success.—Luke Sweeney
