Fantasy Analysis
Wayne Simmonds also was denied on the Flyers' final shootout attempt, thus cementing the loss. The gritty winger has been buzzing since the All-Star break and has already established a new career high in goals with 17. He's racking up penalty minutes as well (as most Flyers tend to do), making him a valuable commodity in leagues that reward goon points. (Updated 02/07/2012).

Simmonds joins the Flyers as part of the trade for Mike Richards. The 23-year-old is coming off a 30-point (14 G, 16 A) campaign, but much of his value comes from the 191 PIMs he's racked up over the past two seasons. His style of play should gel nicely in the Philly lineup. (Updated 10/4/11)
