Line Change
Ott with Fiddler and Dvorak.
Expect at least 10 goals, 30 points and well above 150 PIM if you draft him, making him quite a valuable player for deeper leagues.
Line Change
Ott with Benn and Vincour.
Moving into a scoring role certainly helps Ott's value while hurting Vincour and Benn. Expect at least 10 goals, 30 points and well above 150 PIM if you draft him, making him quite a valuable player for deeper leagues.
None
Among the latest arrivals was forward Steve Ott. Stars GM Joe Nieuwendyk has said Ott is an important player this season and will be given an opportunity to land a spot in the team’s top six forwards.
Ott likely suits up on the second line when the season starts, playing either LW or C. His combination of PIM and points should help most owners in deeper leagues.
