Eric Maltais, who pens Croaks, from the Fantasy Frog, gives you his take on most of the players from a fantasy standpoint. Some may differ from what you find in the DobberHockey Fantasy Guide, but it’s good to have several viewpoints.
| Player | UFA | GP | G | A | PTS | +/- | PIM | PP | SOG | Pct | TOI | PPTOI |
| D’Agostini, Matt RW MON | 53 | 12 | 9 | 21 | -17 | 16 | 5 | 116 | 10.3 | 13.41 | 2.05 | |
| Had some nice moments, but has limited upside. | ||||||||||||
| Daley, Trevor D DAL | 75 | 7 | 18 | 25 | 2 | 73 | 1 | 104 | 6.7 | 21.98 | 1.36 | |
| A 30-point defenseman from now on. | ||||||||||||
| Datsyuk, Pavel C DET | 81 | 32 | 65 | 97 | 34 | 22 | 36 | 248 | 12.9 | 19.21 | 3.39 | |
| As reliable as expected, fifth straight season scoring between 27 and 32 goals and fourth straight between 87 and 97 points. | ||||||||||||
| Dawes, Nigel LW PHO | 64 | 10 | 11 | 21 | -6 | 15 | 4 | 115 | 8.7 | 13.26 | 1.30 | |
| He keeps showing flashes of his potential, but that’s all they remain and I don’t see much improvement next season. | ||||||||||||
| Demitra, Pavol C VAN | 69 | 20 | 33 | 53 | 6 | 20 | 16 | 143 | 14 | 17.48 | 3.56 | |
| A pretty much identical season to 2007-08 including in the games played department. Demitra hasn’t topped 71 games in the last five seasons. | ||||||||||||
| Doan, Shane RW PHO | 82 | 31 | 42 | 73 | 5 | 72 | 25 | 230 | 13.5 | 20.24 | 3.90 | |
| You just know what to expect from Doan, around 30 goals and 75 points. | ||||||||||||
| Dorsett, Derek RW CLB | 52 | 4 | 1 | 5 | -1 | 150 | 0 | 59 | 6.8 | 8.89 | 0.13 | |
| The Blue Jackets don’t really need him and Boll. | ||||||||||||
| Doughty, Drew D LA | 81 | 6 | 21 | 27 | -17 | 56 | 16 | 126 | 4.8 | 23.83 | 3.62 | |
| He’ll be a very good one. I expect he’ll reach 40 points next season and work his way up from there. | ||||||||||||
| Draper, Kris C DET | 79 | 7 | 10 | 17 | -13 | 40 | 0 | 93 | 7.5 | 12.00 | 0.09 | |
| The Wings don’t ask him to score. | ||||||||||||
| Drury, Chris C NYR | 81 | 22 | 34 | 56 | -8 | 32 | 20 | 219 | 10 | 20.25 | 3.54 | |
| Almost a duplicate of last year’s numbers. | ||||||||||||
| Dubinsky, Brandon C NYR | 82 | 13 | 28 | 41 | -6 | 112 | 8 | 188 | 6.9 | 16.63 | 2.25 | |
| Didn’t improve upon last season despite scoring 12 points in October. | ||||||||||||
| Dumont, J.P. RW NSH | 82 | 16 | 49 | 65 | 1 | 20 | 22 | 176 | 9.1 | 17.50 | 3.52 | |
| This year is more in line with what we should expect from Dumont than last year, although he should get back to scoring 20 goals. | ||||||||||||
| Dupuis, Pascal RW PIT | 71 | 12 | 16 | 28 | 1 | 30 | 0 | 145 | 8.3 | 14.22 | 0.10 | |
| We won’t see Dupuis on the top two lines again and we won’t see 30 points from him either. | ||||||||||||
| Dvorak, Radek RW FLA | X | 81 | 15 | 21 | 36 | 0 | 42 | 0 | 136 | 11 | 16.44 | 0.50 |
| Never achieved his potential. Now you can’t expect more than 40 points. | ||||||||||||
