When is being a 70-point player a complete disappointment? Easy -- when your name is Vinny Lecavalier. It was but a few short seasons ago when Vinny's name was being tossed about as the best player in the game. Then along came injury, a huge anchor of a contract and disappointment after disappointment. But the reality is quite simple -- Vinny is a 70-75-point player who just happened to peak for two seasons. And those two seasons coincided with his opportunity to sign the most majestic contract of his career. Don't draft Vinny for more than 30 goals, 70 points and 50 PIMs. That's still pretty sweet considering only 24 guys hit 70 points last season. And only 28 hit 30 goals. (Updated 10/4/11)
