Kennedy had a breakout season of sorts in 2010-11, compiling a career-best 21 goals and 45 points in 80 contests. Pittsburgh re-signed the 25-year-old winger to a two-year deal in the offseason, leaving the only question as to where he will play. The combination of Kennedy, Jordan Staal and Matt Cooke has given Pittsburgh a third line that matches up well against whatever opponents throw at them. Kennedy, however, may get a chance to see what he can do as a top-six forward. He also might become a regular on the man advantage, as his seven power-play goals ranked second on the team after both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin went down with injuries. Kennedy's shot-taking total (234) is an underrated aspect of his fantasy game. He's worth considering as a late-round draft pick in fantasy leagues. (Updated 10/4/11)
