Semin was re-signed to a one-year deal and also has been in the news of trade talks. It does not seem like the 27-year-old will be headed anywhere, however, and for fantasy players this is good news. He has been one of the most productive players over the past few years, but has not performed all that well when the money is on the line for postseason poolies. He seems to always miss some time due to injury, so when looking into his services keep that in mind. As this season approaches look for him to rebound as he sorts out the bumps from last season, as he posted his third lowest point total since coming into the league. You can expect about 70 points, 60 PIMs, 20 power-play points, and 200-plus shots. (Updated 10/4/11)
