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 |
Walker, Matt D CHI | X | 65 | 1 | 13 | 14 | 7 | 79 | 0 | 83 | 1.2 | 16.63 | 0.08 |
Had a 3-point game this season despite the fact that he had a total of 11 points in 175 career games prior to this season. | ||||||||||||
Walker, Scott RW CAR | 41 | 5 | 10 | 15 | -4 | 39 | 2 | 71 | 7 | 13.34 | 0.74 | |
Always had trouble staying healthy and he’ll turn 36 this summer, his valuable days are over. | ||||||||||||
Ward, Joel RW NSH | X | 79 | 17 | 18 | 35 | 1 | 29 | 4 | 133 | 12.8 | 16.02 | 1.19 |
Incredibly surprising production considering he’s 28 and had zero goals 11 NHL games under his belt before this season. | ||||||||||||
Weber, Shea D NSH | 81 | 23 | 30 | 53 | 1 | 80 | 19 | 251 | 9.2 | 23.97 | 4.45 | |
Had an up and down season, 25 points in his first 26 games, then only 8 points in 32 games before scoring 20 points in the final 23 games. He could surpass 60 points next season. | ||||||||||||
Weight, Doug C NYI | 53 | 10 | 28 | 38 | -15 | 55 | 21 | 96 | 10.4 | 18.28 | 4.55 | |
Re-signed with the Isles for a couple more years to mentor the kids, he’s still capable of producing 50 points if he can stay healthy. | ||||||||||||
Weiss, Stephen C FLA | 78 | 14 | 47 | 61 | 18 | 22 | 21 | 154 | 9.1 | 17.79 | 3.41 | |
Weiss took a small step forward this season, but he’s still got inconsistency problems. If he can fix those he’ll put up 70 points. | ||||||||||||
Wellwood, Kyle C VAN | 74 | 18 | 9 | 27 | 2 | 4 | 13 | 94 | 19.1 | 13.80 | 3.04 | |
Scored 13 of his goals in the first 31 games. You just can’t rely on him for any kind of production. | ||||||||||||
Wheeler, Blake RW BOS | 81 | 21 | 24 | 45 | 36 | 46 | 5 | 150 | 14 | 13.67 | 0.92 | |
No surprise considering he was the fifth overall pick in 2004. Should score 25 goals next season with increased ice time. | ||||||||||||
White, Colin D NJ | 71 | 1 | 17 | 18 | 18 | 46 | 0 | 68 | 1.5 | 19.02 | 0.09 | |
He is what he is. | ||||||||||||
White, Ian D TOR | 71 | 10 | 16 | 26 | 6 | 57 | 5 | 158 | 6.3 | 22.85 | 2.26 | |
Third year scoring between 21 and 26 points. | ||||||||||||
White, Todd C ATL | 82 | 22 | 51 | 73 | -9 | 24 | 34 | 150 | 14.7 | 18.06 | 4.32 | |
A career best year for White thanks to an incredible power play output. | ||||||||||||
Whitney, Ray LW CAR | 82 | 24 | 53 | 77 | 2 | 32 | 30 | 219 | 11 | 18.41 | 3.92 | |
Awesome season for the 36 year-old, but he has to slow down at some point. | ||||||||||||
Whitney, Ryan D ANA | 48 | 2 | 21 | 23 | -14 | 28 | 11 | 71 | 2.8 | 23.87 | 4.46 | |
Will benefit if Niedermayer retires or Pronger is dealt so expect 40 to 45 points next season. | ||||||||||||
Wideman, Dennis D BOS | 79 | 13 | 37 | 50 | 32 | 34 | 25 | 169 | 7.7 | 24.64 | 3.22 | |
One of the most underrated defenseman in fantasy hockey. | ||||||||||||
Williams, Jason RW CLB | X | 80 | 19 | 28 | 47 | -4 | 24 | 14 | 153 | 12.4 | 15.86 | 3.23 |
Had a difficult first half in Atlanta, but found his groove in Columbus. This being his fourth stop in three seasons, you have to wonder about him. | ||||||||||||
Williams, Justin RW LA | 44 | 4 | 10 | 14 | -8 | 17 | 6 | 108 | 3.7 | 15.89 | 2.75 | |
Two serious injuries pretty much ruined his season, but don’t forget about him next year, he should post close to 60 points. | ||||||||||||
Winchester, Brad LW STL | X | 64 | 13 | 8 | 21 | -1 | 89 | 8 | 82 | 15.9 | 12.16 | 1.54 |
Consider this an achievement following a season of one goal and two assists in 41 games last year. | ||||||||||||
Winchester, Jesse C OTT | 76 | 3 | 15 | 18 | 0 | 33 | 0 | 115 | 2.6 | 10.58 | 0.12 | |
Should make a run at 30 points next season. | ||||||||||||
Wisniewski, James D ANA | 48 | 3 | 21 | 24 | 9 | 30 | 11 | 89 | 3.4 | 19.86 | 2.02 | |
Wisniewski is limited by the top guns on the Anaheim blue line, but could be a real gem next season. | ||||||||||||
Wolski, Wojtek LW COL | 78 | 14 | 28 | 42 | -13 | 28 | 11 | 169 | 8.3 | 18.39 | 2.66 | |
His production has declined for two straight seasons and I don’t expect it’ll pick up next year. | ||||||||||||
Woywitka, Jeff D STL | 65 | 3 | 15 | 18 | 8 | 57 | 8 | 71 | 4.2 | 18.48 | 2.37 | |
Power play time will drop with Erik Johnson’s return and so will his stats. |
