03/14/2010 17:52 Week 22 Fantasy Hockey Planner
The Fantasy Hockey postseason is upon us in most leagues, making informed lineup decisions all the more important. Our Michael Hurcomb talks up San Jose's Joe Pavelski as a sleeper in Week 22 and more in his latest Planner.
Caputi is a long shot at best. Sure, the guy doesn't turn 23 until the start of October. But he feels more like a tweener to us than anything else. He does muck the corners as well as a farm boy in a barn stall and his shot is strong and quick. But his development curve has been considerably slower than most pundits ever thought. He's on a contract year so he's going to hit camp hard. But he's borderline to make the Buds this season and could quickly find himself fitting into that “Quad-A” stereotype. There's little fantasy value -- even in a deep keeper league -- for that. (Updated 8/16/11)
