Fabbri might not be the biggest player (5-foot-10, 190 pounds), but his vision and passing savvy make him a threat whenever he is on the ice.

He made his mark during the St. Louis Blues' run to the Western Conference Final in 2016. In a 6-1 victory against the Dallas Stars in Game 7 of the Western Conference Second Round on May 11, Fabbri (20 years, 110 days) became the youngest player in Blues Stanley Cup Playoff history to score a goal in a Game 7. He also got two assists, making him the youngest player in NHL history to have three points in a Game 7.

But injuries began to take their toll. Fabbri tore the ACL in his left knee Feb. 4, 2017, had surgery, then tore the same ligament during training camp and missed all of the 2017-18 season. He played 32 games in 2018-19, finishing with six points (two goals, four assists) while playing a depth role. Fabbri also scored one goal in 10 games (opening the scoring in the Game 1 victory against the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Second Round) during the Blues' run to their first Stanley Cup championship.

Fabbri won the Wayne Gretzky 99 Award as playoff MVP in the Ontario Hockey League in 2014, when he scored 13 goals and 28 points in 16 games to help Guelph to the OHL title and the championship game of the Memorial Cup. The Blues selected him in the first round (No. 21) of the 2014 NHL Draft.

After Fabbri helped Canada finish first at the 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship and scored with 51 points (25 goals, 26 assists) for Guelph, he made his pro debut, scoring one goal and three assists in three games with Chicago of the American Hockey League. He also played in three Calder Cup games.

Fabbri scored one goal in his NHL debut against the Edmonton Oilers on Oct. 8, 2015 and finished 2015-16 tied for sixth among NHL rookies with 18 goals. He made his playoff debut against the Chicago Blackhawks on April 13, 2016 and scored his first NHL postseason goal eight days later, also against the Blackhawks.

Traded by St. Louis to the Detroit Red Wings on Nov. 6, 2019, Fabbri scored two power-play goals in a 4-2 win against the Boston Bruins at Little Caesars Arena on Nov. 8, making him the first player in Red Wings history to do so in their Detroit debut. He scored eight points (three goals, five assists) in his first seven games for the Red Wings.
