Fantasy Analysis
That makes it five goals in the last five games for Cody McLeod, who before this little hot stretch had gone nearly a month and a half without a marker. Don't put much weight on this out-of-nowhere scoring outburst; though McLeod has seen good ice time lately, his main fantasy value comes from dropping the gloves and racking up penalty minutes.

Though not a prolific scorer (19 points in 146 games over the past two seasons), Cody McLeod's fantasy value lies in the PIM category, having finished fifth in the league in that category last season with 164. After agreeing to a three-year contract extension in June, McLeod will likely reprise his enforcer role next season with the Avs. (Updated 8/14/12)
