Fantasy Analysis
The writing was on the wall for Marc-Andre Bergeron, who has just one assist in four games so far since joining the 'Canes last week. He saw 21:31 of ice time in his first game, but his minutes showed a steady decline thereafter to just 12:09 prior to his benching. It looks like he is the odd man out on the 'Canes' blue line for now; bench him immediately. (Updated 4/10/13).

There are three things in life that are certainties -- death, taxes and Marc-Andre Bergeron's injuries. He's coming off back surgery so we're not even sure he's ready for camp. If he is, he'll probably be used as a PP specialist to start and might even be sent packing in a trade. He's a last-round pick, at best, but probably a better waiver pickup. There's just way too much risk for anything else. (Updated 8/14/12)
