Fantasy Analysis
Marc-Andre Gragnani has seen his role increase over the past couple of games with Kevin Bieksa out. The 25-year-old has picked up points in back-to-back games and could see a slightly expanded role as the Canucks try to get all of their veterans ready for the playoffs. (Updated 04/02/2012).
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.
Gragnani spent almost all of 2010-11 in the AHL before a rash of injuries necessitated his call-up towards the end of the season. Gragnani's debut in a Buffalo uniform was nothing short of brilliant. In Buffalo's series loss to the Flyers, Gragnani was arguably the best player on the team, netting once and adding six helpers. Gragnani is the must-see Sabre entering 2011-12. If he can be the guy we saw in the playoffs last year, then the Sabres have every reason to believe they have an elite defensive corps. His scoring potential is probably high-risk/high-reward for 2011-12, however, as the Sabres have a lot of talent offensively from their blue line, so the key will be how much power play time he can secure early in the season.
