Fantasy Analysis
It's a surprisingly quick return for Brett Lebda, who was expected to miss several weeks as of Feb. 6. He's not likely to be a fantasy factor, in any case, with 13 points in his last 109 NHL games. (Updated 02/18/2012).
02/10/2012 20:41 Blue Jackets put Lebda, Methot on injured reserve
The Columbus Blue Jackets placed defensemen Brett Lebda and Marc Methot on injured reserve Friday and added defenseman Dalton Prout and goalie Allen York to the roster on emergency recalls.
Lebda had just four points in 41 games for the Leafs last season after suffering an assortment of injuries (leg, shoulder). He will likely wind up on the Preds' third defensive pairing this season if he can stay healthy, but given his track record, that may be a tall order. Lebda's fantasy value remains limited to very deep leagues at this time. (Updated 8/16/11)
