Fantasy Analysis
Matt Smaby hasn't made an NHL appearance yet this year, and that's not guaranteed to change given that he had no points in 32 games last season. (Updated 01/06/2012).
Smaby, a defenseman, was signed to a one-year deal after going scoreless in 32 games for the Lightning in 2010-11. He also had a plus-2 rating and 17 penalty minutes. Smaby was injury prone last year, having missed the last 18 playoff games with a lower body injury. Known as a big physical player, he can make a difference in the lineup provided he stays healthy.
