Nick Spaling recorded a career-high 22 points in 77 games last season, playing the majority of games in a checking role. However, he was given more responsibility last season as evidenced by his ice time which rose by nearly a full two minutes compared to 2010-11 (15:43 vs. 13:56). Unfortunately, given the number of bodies currently ahead of Spaling on the PredsÂ’ depth chart, he won't help you much in traditional fantasy scoring categories unless you're in an ultra-deep league.
