03/10/2013 21:06 VIDEO: Watch Habs' Francis Bouillon score wicked own goal
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Francis Bouillon came into Sunday's game against the Florida Panthers without a goal on the season. He wanted to remedy that, so to be sure he scored one on both ends of the ice.
Tomas Kopecky's first season with the Panthers saw him snag 10 goals and 22 assists. The production was a slight dip from the career-high 42 points the two-time Stanley Cup champion chipped in the season prior. Inconsistent play continues to dog Kopecky and it is what is keeping him from making the leap into fantasy relevance. Regardless, Kopecky can be counted on to score in the 30-40 point range, making him a decent fantasy option in deeper leagues, although his upside is limited. (Updated 8/14/12)
