Fantasy Analysis
Head coach Claude Noel has been relying more heavily on skaters like Nik Antropov in light of Evander Kane's concussion. If this recent hot streak marks a turning point in the veteran's otherwise disappointing season, he may warrant a fantasy roster spot moving forward. (Updated 01/23/2012).

01/17/2012 21:45 Kovalchuk, Devils stay hot in win vs. Jets
Ilya Kovalchuk scored two goals, giving him seven in six games, and the New Jersey Devils beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-1 on Tuesday night.
Antropov went through one of the biggest letdown seasons of his career last season, posting just 16 goals, 25 assists and 41 points and a minus-17 rating (24 G, 43 A for 67 points and a plus-13 rating in the 2009-10 season). He started last season in a huge slump and with so much young talent on the Jets, don't expect him to flirt with the 70-point plateau this year as he seems more comfortable in a supporting role.
