Fantasy Analysis
Jason Williams, who has two points in eight NHL games this season for Pittsburgh, could be back at some point down the road when the Penguins are looking for some depth up front. (Updated 02/08/2012).

Evgeni Malkin had his seventh career hat trick, and the injury-depleted Pittsburgh Penguins peppered two Buffalo Sabres goalies in a 8-3 win on Saturday.
Williams is a right-handed centerman who has NHL experience at the point on the man advantage, something the Penguins lack. He hasn't played particularly well in the league since scoring 12 goals and 29 points in 39 games with Columbus in 2008-09, but he's had his share of injuries. The Pens signed him as a low-risk option and fantasy poolies should probably look at him in the same manner. (Updated 8/16/11)
