Fantasy Analysis
His return is likely to make the Sharks happier than it will fantasy owners, but Jason Demers can still provide decent blue line depth for your team. He has 11 points in 39 games, which is good for fourth amongst Sharks' defensemen. (Updated 02/19/2012).
04/06/2012 02:20 Sharks win shootout, tighten Pacific race
Joe Pavelski scored the only shootout goal, and the San Jose Sharks beat the Kings 6-5 on Thursday night to pull even with Los Angeles atop the Pacific Division with two days left in the regular season.
04/01/2012 01:08 Sharks zip Stars, back in playoff chase
Joe Pavelski scored two goals, Antti Niemi earned his sixth shutout of the season and the San Jose Sharks moved back into playoff position by beating the Dallas Stars 3-0 on Saturday night.
With so many serviceable fantasy options making up the Sharks' roster, Demers tends to fly under the radar. But he took a big leap in 2010-11, notching 24 points (2 G, 22 A) to complement a shiny, plus-19 rating, the best of any Sharks skater. Also of significance, Demers saw his average ice time climb from 15:25 in 2009-10 to 19:29 last season. He's an emerging offensive threat on Team Teal's blue line and someone worth considering in the later rounds of standard fantasy leagues. (Updated 10/4/11)
