Problem is, neither will another team. The Oilers would probably have to eat a certain portion of the contract in order to deal him.","date":"Mon May 20"},"fullName":"Ales Hemsky","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"We saw last season that even when healthy for more of the season than Hemsky is used to, his scoring has been reduced as his role shrinks. The new blood with the Edmonton Oilers means Hemsky is pushed down the lineup, likely to the third line for a veteran unit with Shawn Horcoff and Ryan Smyth. The offensive upside of such a line is minimal at best, so Hemsky's best hope for fantasy value is either in use on the second power-play unit or if a hole opens up on a scoring line through underachievement or injury. Hemsky still has offensive skills and would flourish in such a role, but he won't get to show them unless someone else flounders.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Tue Sep 11"},"playerRater30DAY":-3.5,"positionRank":55}
