Fantasy Analysis
Ian White is not a big scorer, but he has three assists in his last two games and currently owns an impressive plus-23 rating, partially due to his own fine play and partially due to being primarily paired with Nicklas Lidstrom all season. (Updated 01/15/2012).

You might be getting ready for the All-Star festivities this weekend, but don't lose sight of what's important -- a strong second half for your Fantasy team. Brian Rutherford takes a look at Week 16 and beyond.
01/20/2012 00:01 Red Wings top league with 63 points
Todd Bertuzzi scored in regulation, then spun in front of the net and made a spectacular backhand shot in a shootout and the Detroit Red Wings won their fifth in a row by beating the Phoenix Coyotes 3-2 on Thursday.
01/14/2012 15:17 Wings earn OT victory over Blackhawks
Todd Bertuzzi scored his second goal Saturday at 4:21 in overtime, lifting the Detroit Red Wings to a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Including the Sharks, White played on four different teams after entering the NHL in 2005-06 with the Maple Leafs (the Flames and Hurricanes were the others). Things seemed to click for him in San Jose, as White had 10 points (2 G, 8 A) in 23 regular season games, followed by his first career postseason in which he tacked on a plus-3 rating with eight assists and a goal. After signing with Detroit as a free agent in July, White will be counted on to help recoup the lost blue-line production following the retirement of Brian Rafalski. If he cracks one of the top two blue-line pairings, there will be plenty of sleeper potential here. (Updated 10/4/11)
