3UPS :<br />
1. James Neal<br />
Tale of the tape: LW, Age 25, 6’ 2”, 208lbs<br />
James Neal is the real deal. Coming off the<br />
magical 4 th year breakout, Neal showed all of us<br />
why he will be a fantasy hockey stud for a long<br />
time setting career highs in almost every<br />
statistical category. Neal has a permanent<br />
position playing alongside NHL scoring leader<br />
Evgeni Malkin, so you know his production will<br />
not be going down anytime soon.<br />
Verdict: Expect another 40 goal season<br />
2. Kris Letang<br />
Tale of the tape: D, Age 25, 6’ 0”, 180lbs<br />
Kris Letang battled injuries for most of last year including a concussion, but Letang is healthy<br />
now. Letang is an offensive minded defensemen playing on a high scoring team <strong>and</strong> is the power<br />
play QB that includes the likes of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin <strong>and</strong> James Neal. Look for Letang<br />
to put up career highs all across the board.<br />
Verdict: Could lead the league in points by a defenseman.<br />
3. Sidney Crosby<br />
Tale of the tape: C, Age 25, 5’ 11”, 200lbs<br />
Sidney Crosby is arguably the best player in the NHL unfortunately for him he has battled a<br />
concussion <strong>and</strong> a mis- diagnosed neck injury the last two years. That is all behind him now <strong>and</strong><br />
look for Crosby to explode this year. Crosby, a Hart Trophy winner can do it all by scoring goals<br />
or setting up team-mates. Very good on faceoffs.<br />
Verdict: Will finish in the top 3 in league scoring<br />
