03/19/2012 09:52 Neutral Zone Wrap: Dealing with stretch-run stress
The stress of handling your Fantasy team down the stretch can drive you crazy. Evan Berofsky tries to calm your nerves in his latest edition of Neutral Zone Wrap.
Liles is a talented but smallish (5-10, 185) defender who is great on the outlet and the PP, and should approach career numbers if paired with a steady, mobile -- and larger -- partner. He got the bum rap in Colorado more than once and we just dont think he deserved it. He tried to do too much on an inexperienced team and that overexposed some of his weaknesses. He needs to be aggressive on both sides of the puck and is improving his gap control. But hes a creative maestro walking the line on the PP and thats a distinct upgrade on Tomas Kaberle. Toronto fans are going to love him; fantasy owners will, too. (Updated 10/4/11)
