Fantasy Analysis
His 28 points this season were top-10 for scoring from the blue line. He struggled early to find his legs again after Ryan Suter left, but he's been solid of late. He remains a strong keeper. (Updated 4/27/13).
04/27/2013 21:51 Blue Jackets rally by Preds, fall short of postseason bid
Jack Johnson scored the go-ahead goal with 4:48 left and the Columbus Blue Jackets capped a remarkable turnaround with a 3-1 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday.
04/23/2013 23:03 Bruins fall to Flyers but still lead Northeast Division
Matt Read and Oliver Lauridsen scored goals 7 seconds apart to lead the Philadelphia Flyers to a 5-2 victory over the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night.
On July 24, the Preds made headlines by matching a $110 million, 14-year offer sheet made to Shea Weber by the Philadelphia Flyers just days before. By doing so, the Preds are assured of keeping their All-Star defenseman and team cornerstone in Nashville for at least one more season (matching an offer sheet means he can't be traded for one full year). Weber finished the season tied for seventh among NHL defensemen in both points (49) and plus-minus (plus-21), and should be at or near the top of your fantasy cheat sheet for defensemen.
