While Tanev's 'rough game' never showed up on the box score, it was a large reason why the score was relatively close. Expect Andrew Alberts to draw in if coach Alain Vigneault is comfortable using him on the right side.
No immediate fantasy hockey value in the AHL.
Muzzin registered an assist in last season's 11-game tryout. Avoid until he proves himself healthy and worthy of a NHL job.
With Crombeen out, Reaves takes his spot on the fourth line. Last season he posted an impressive 78 PIM in 28 games for the Blues and has posted 130 or more over the past three seasons in the AHL. If you need PIM, expect Reaves to approach 200 while adding no more than five goals.
Not good news for the young blue-liner. Muzzin registered an assist in last season's 11-game tryout. Avoid until he proves himself healthy and worthy of a NHL job.
Muzzin registered an assist in last season's 11-game tryout. He was one of the few thought to capitalize on Doughty's infamous holdout but has been relegated to the recovery room for now. Avoid until he proves himself healthy and worthy of an AHL job.
No reason to use the C word just yet. The Woodstock, Ont. native registered one assist in 11 games last season. The former Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds standout still holds a great deal of potential.
Pacioretty scored 14 goals and 24 points in only 37 games last season. If healthy, the top-line left wing could come close to 30 goals if he plays with Scott Gomez and Brian Gionta for a full season.
Important move for the Isles as his re-signing ensures the team will remain competitive. It also solidifies his line-mates' fantasy value from Matt Moulson during even strength to Kyle Okposo on the PP.
