Defensemen
Linus Nässén
Steady two-way defensemen with a hard accurate shot. The smooth-skating defender also possesses strong puck-handling skills.
Lukas Bengtsson
His lack of size, strength and the Atlantic Ocean are all that's between him and the NHL since he signed a three-year deal in the Swedish Hockey League.
Dean Stewart
A solid defenseman who could be a serviceable pro, he doesn't offer a lot expect in deep fantasy leagues that count hits and blocked shots.
Michael Callahan
A smart defenseman who plays a strong two-way game.
Casey Nelson
A quick-skating defenceman who has struggled to be effective at the AHL level. Makes too many mistakes and is not creative offensively.
Otto Leskinen
Average-sized puck-moving defender with upside to be a number four defenseman. Loves to join the rush and play the cycle game in the offensive zone. Smooth skater. Needs to improve his defensive game.
Marcus Pettersson
Project defenseman with the frame and offensive instincts to eventually mature into a top-four defenseman.
Niclas Almari
A defensive defenseman with little fantasy upside
William Reilly
A solid puck-moving offensive defenseman with good speed and a great shot. Potential depth defenseman.
Justin Holl
All-around fringe defenseman with moderate peripheral stats
