Fantasy Analysis
Shawn Horcoff has spent his entire 12-year career in Edmonton, but it makes sense for the two parties to part directions while the Oilers are rebuilding. Horcoff tallied seven goals and five assists in just 31 games during the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season. (Updated 6/6/13).

At 34 years of age, Shawn Horcoff's best years are behind him. He did manage to stay healthy last season, missing just one game, but he also only managed 13 goals and was a minus-23. He is slated to begin this season as the third-line center, but his time with the organization is quickly coming to an end as they acquire more and more talent. Thirty points are likely his ceiling for 2012-13. (Updated 8/14/12)
