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 |
MacArthur, Clarke LW BUF | 71 | 17 | 14 | 31 | -4 | 56 | 10 | 108 | 15.7 | 13.83 | 1.75 | |
Didn’t do much after the new year with one goal and six points from January 1st until March 7. He did score five goals in the last eight games so that’s a positive sign. | ||||||||||||
Madden, John C NJ | X | 76 | 7 | 16 | 23 | -7 | 26 | 0 | 132 | 5.3 | 16.42 | 0.15 |
The worst season of his nine year career, he should get back to 30 points next season. | ||||||||||||
Mair, Adam RW BUF | 75 | 8 | 11 | 19 | 4 | 95 | 0 | 75 | 10.7 | 10.58 | 0.17 | |
His career high is 20 points, enough said. | ||||||||||||
Malhotra, Manny C CLB | X | 77 | 11 | 24 | 35 | 9 | 28 | 6 | 116 | 9.5 | 18.01 | 1.08 |
Reached a career high point production. | ||||||||||||
Malkin, Evgeni C PIT | 82 | 35 | 78 | 113 | 17 | 80 | 41 | 290 | 12.1 | 22.51 | 5.56 | |
Will challenge for the scoring title for at least the next 7 years. | ||||||||||||
Malone, Ryan LW TB | 70 | 26 | 19 | 45 | 4 | 98 | 11 | 124 | 21 | 17.75 | 3.27 | |
I wasn’t a believer, but Malone earned my respect with a season very similar to last year. | ||||||||||||
Mara, Paul D NYR | X | 76 | 5 | 16 | 21 | 2 | 94 | 11 | 102 | 4.9 | 18.96 | 2.66 |
Forget about his 40-point days, he simply a 20-25 point guy now. | ||||||||||||
Marchant, Todd C ANA | X | 72 | 5 | 13 | 18 | -2 | 34 | 1 | 101 | 5 | 14.53 | 0.39 |
He has become a one dimensional player and that dimension ain’t offense. | ||||||||||||
Markov, Andrei D MON | 78 | 12 | 52 | 64 | -2 | 36 | 39 | 165 | 7.3 | 24.63 | 5.16 | |
Might be the second best offensive defenseman in the NHL after Mike Green. | ||||||||||||
Marleau, Patrick C SJ | 76 | 38 | 33 | 71 | 16 | 18 | 18 | 251 | 15.1 | 21.35 | 3.91 | |
Posted a career high 38 goals and averaged almost a point per game despite scoring only five goals and eight points in his last 20 games. I don’t expect him to score as many goals again, but 60 to 70 points sounds right. | ||||||||||||
Martin, Paul D NJ | 73 | 5 | 28 | 33 | 21 | 36 | 18 | 107 | 4.7 | 24.37 | 3.34 | |
Clearly won’t become more than a 35-point producer. | ||||||||||||
Mayers, Jamal RW TOR | 71 | 7 | 9 | 16 | -7 | 82 | 1 | 72 | 9.7 | 10.54 | 0.16 | |
Not hired for his offense, but 25 points are expected. | ||||||||||||
McAmmond, Dean LW NYI | X | 62 | 5 | 11 | 16 | 7 | 24 | 0 | 59 | 8.5 | 11.27 | 0.07 |
A role player who’ll be lucky to be ever each 30 points again. | ||||||||||||
McCabe, Bryan D FLA | 69 | 15 | 24 | 39 | -1 | 41 | 19 | 153 | 9.8 | 23.15 | 4.73 | |
If Bouwmeester leaves Florida, McCabe will play an even larger role next season. | ||||||||||||
McClement, Jay C STL | 82 | 12 | 14 | 26 | -10 | 29 | 0 | 137 | 8.8 | 16.60 | 0.18 | |
Does a good job as a defensive specialist, but you can’t expect more than 30 points. | ||||||||||||
McCormick, Cody C COL | 55 | 1 | 11 | 12 | -5 | 92 | 0 | 66 | 1.5 | 9.60 | 0.10 | |
He’ll spend his entire career between the NHL and the AHL. | ||||||||||||
McDonald, Andy C STL | 46 | 15 | 29 | 44 | -13 | 24 | 19 | 128 | 11.7 | 19.08 | 3.91 | |
Proved he could perform without Selanne. | ||||||||||||
McLean, Brett C FLA | 80 | 7 | 12 | 19 | -11 | 29 | 1 | 114 | 6.1 | 12.43 | 0.80 | |
Extremely disappointing since he has the talent to score 40 points. | ||||||||||||
McLeod, Cody LW COL | 79 | 15 | 5 | 20 | -11 | 162 | 0 | 118 | 12.7 | 11.58 | 0.39 | |
15 goals from a guy with 150 penalty minutes, not bad at all. | ||||||||||||
Meszaros, Andrej D TB | 52 | 2 | 14 | 16 | -4 | 36 | 5 | 87 | 2.3 | 24.19 | 2.57 | |
What a huge bust! Was totally miscast as the leader on defense. | ||||||||||||
Methot, Marc D CLB | 66 | 4 | 13 | 17 | 7 | 55 | 0 | 58 | 6.9 | 17.95 | 0.15 | |
Will never score a lot. | ||||||||||||
Metropolit, Glen RW MON | 76 | 6 | 11 | 17 | -6 | 28 | 1 | 82 | 7.3 | 12.60 | 0.18 | |
Seventh NHL team and he’s probably not done yet. | ||||||||||||
Michalek, Milan RW SJ | 77 | 23 | 34 | 57 | 11 | 52 | 19 | 179 | 12.8 | 18.45 | 2.69 | |
Three straight season of 23 to 26 goals and 55 to 66 points, you know what you’ll be getting. | ||||||||||||
Michalek, Zbynek D PHO | 82 | 6 | 21 | 27 | -13 | 28 | 0 | 106 | 5.7 | 22.71 | 0.66 | |
Was his usual self following an off season last year. | ||||||||||||
Miettinen, Antti LW MIN | 82 | 15 | 29 | 44 | -1 | 32 | 13 | 186 | 8.1 | 18.28 | 2.49 | |
He scored 19 points in the first 22 games, 3 in the last 19. I don’t see him ever scoring 50 points. | ||||||||||||
Mitchell, John C TOR | 76 | 12 | 17 | 29 | -16 | 33 | 6 | 98 | 12.2 | 13.80 | 1.04 | |
Did as well as Kulemin, but doesn’t have his upside. | ||||||||||||
Mitchell, Willie D VAN | 82 | 3 | 20 | 23 | 29 | 59 | 0 | 88 | 3.4 | 22.92 | 0.23 | |
Career high point production, he’s usually good for only 10 to 15 points. | ||||||||||||
Modano, Mike C DAL | 80 | 15 | 31 | 46 | -13 | 46 | 18 | 197 | 7.6 | 18.30 | 3.70 | |
I don’t think we’ll see Modano hit 50 points again. | ||||||||||||
Modin, Fredrik LW CLB | 50 | 9 | 16 | 25 | 2 | 28 | 7 | 113 | 8 | 16.88 | 2.88 | |
Modin is nothing more than a 40-point player anymore. | ||||||||||||
Moen, Travis LW SJ | X | 82 | 7 | 9 | 16 | -18 | 91 | 0 | 101 | 6.9 | 14.99 | 0.18 |
See Mike Grier. | ||||||||||||
Moller, Oscar C LA | 40 | 7 | 8 | 15 | -3 | 16 | 9 | 81 | 8.6 | 13.37 | 2.87 | |
An eventful year for Moller with the World Juniors, a fractured clavicle and a slew of games from the stands in the last month. Expect a big improvement next season. | ||||||||||||
Montador, Steve D BOS | X | 78 | 4 | 17 | 21 | 17 | 143 | 1 | 117 | 3.4 | 16.16 | 1.05 |
Nice enough production for a defenseman with over 100 penalty minutes. | ||||||||||||
Moore, Dominic C BUF | X | 81 | 13 | 32 | 45 | -2 | 92 | 9 | 165 | 7.9 | 16.83 | 1.64 |
Hearing is name mentioned so often at the trade deadline you’d have thought we were talking about a top line center. | ||||||||||||
Moreau, Ethan LW EDM | 77 | 14 | 12 | 26 | 0 | 133 | 0 | 159 | 8.8 | 15.36 | 0.21 | |
Nice comeback after missing most of the last two seasons to injuries. Don’t forget about him in deep roto leagues that value PIMs and shots on goal. | ||||||||||||
Morris, Derek D NYR | X | 75 | 5 | 15 | 20 | -10 | 40 | 5 | 120 | 4.2 | 20.89 | 2.31 |
Is now a 20-25 point player. | ||||||||||||
Morrison, Brendan C DAL | X | 81 | 16 | 15 | 31 | 3 | 32 | 7 | 111 | 14.4 | 14.21 | 2.22 |
Was awful in Anaheim, but was his usual self in Dallas. Value will be tied to his role next season, but I’m not counting on him for 50 points. | ||||||||||||
Morrisonn, Shaone D WAS | 72 | 3 | 10 | 13 | 4 | 77 | 0 | 50 | 6 | 18.00 | 0.05 | |
This is what he produces year in and year out. | ||||||||||||
Morrow, Brenden LW DAL | 18 | 5 | 10 | 15 | -4 | 49 | 5 | 52 | 9.6 | 21.35 | 4.96 | |
He’ll be back to his old self, I’m not worried. | ||||||||||||
Moss, David LW CGY | 81 | 20 | 19 | 39 | -5 | 22 | 11 | 194 | 10.3 | 13.60 | 1.84 | |
I thought he could deliver this kind of production last year, but better late than never. | ||||||||||||
Mottau, Mike D NJ | 80 | 1 | 14 | 15 | 24 | 35 | 1 | 71 | 1.4 | 17.78 | 0.75 | |
It will be an achievement if he ever reaches 20 points. | ||||||||||||
Mueller, Peter C PHO | 72 | 13 | 23 | 36 | -7 | 24 | 11 | 138 | 9.4 | 16.08 | 3.40 | |
Huge step back from the 22 goals and 54 points he produced as a rookie. Chalk it up to the sophomore jinx and expect 60 points next season. | ||||||||||||
Murphy, Cory D TB | X | 32 | 5 | 11 | 16 | -4 | 14 | 10 | 55 | 9.1 | 17.96 | 4.09 |
Had 15 points in 25 games in Tampa Bay before an injury cut short his season. The Lightning desperately need a power play quarterback so he could be a very nice sleeper for 2009-10 if he re-signs. |
