23-Year-Old CenterC
Ottawa Senators
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Fresh on the heels of a 2021-22 campaign which saw an upper-body injury limit him to just five appearances, Pinto played in all 82 games for Ottawa a season ago. He put up 20 goals and 35 points, including nine with the man advantage. There are a lot of mouths to feed offensively for the Senators, but Pinto, who won't be 23 until mid-November, has proven to be a solid source of secondary scoring for both the team and deep-league fantasy managers. He's a better keeper or dynasty asset than redraft pick. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Senators in January of 2024.
Four points in win
COttawa Senators
March 27, 2024
Pinto tallied a goal and three assists in Wednesday's 6-2 victory over the Sabres.
ANALYSIS
Pinto grabbed assists on three of the Senators' five first-period goals before capping the scoring with an empty-netter in the third. The 23-year-old center had cooled off coming into Wednesday's contest, tallying just one goal and three points in his previous nine games. Following his season-high four-point effort, Pinto's up to eight goals and 25 points through 30 games this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely headed to World Championship
COttawa Senators
April 11, 2024
Pinto is expected to play for the United States at the IIHF World Championship in May, Andy Strickland of Bally Sports Midwest reports.
ANALYSIS
Pinto's 41-game suspension has limited him to just eight goals in 37 outings this year, well shy of the 20-goal mark he reached last season in his rookie campaign. The 23-year-old center should be capable of getting back over that threshold with a full season in 2024-25.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Pinto was great at the tail end of the 2020-21 campaign, posting seven points in a dozen games with Ottawa. He played just five games last season before suffering an upper-body injury which required surgery and ended his year. It's fair to wonder where Pinto fits into the pecking order on a reloaded Senators team now that he's fully healthy, but the Long Island native is a former fringe top-100 prospect who won't turn 22 years old until November. Pinto remains a sneaky stash in all keeper/dynasty formats.
Pinto is destined to be the Senators' second-line center, but not for a few years. At 20, he could make the Sens' roster out of camp this season because of his diligence on the defensive side of the game. After all, he debuted in 2020-21 after a nomination for the Hobey Baker Award and delivered seven points in 12 games. Pinto hasn't looked out of place at training camp this fall -- his shot is as sharp as ever and his work ethic is off the charts. But Pinto's development would be best served in the AHL, where he could play up the lineup and learn to be more dominant. Still, his growth curve has been steep and we wouldn't bet against him.
