The star center was undoubtedly hindered by jaw surgery in the postseason, but his inability to generate any offense against the Bruins will leave a bitter taste in his mouth.","date":"Sat Jun 8"},"fullName":"Sidney Crosby","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Crosby looked 100 percent after coming back late last season from his concussion/head-related woes that forced him to miss 101 games during the past two NHL campaigns. Does that mean we can trust him to be the elite fantasy center who has netted more than 100 points in all four of his healthy NHL campaigns? Or should we be concerned that three of his seven NHL campaigns have involved significant absences due to injury? There is risk, no question about that. But the reward from a healthy Crosby is nothing less than the best fantasy hockey asset that exists. That is why after a normal summer workout routine in which Crosby pledges 100 percent health, you won't be able to wait long in any fantasy draft. Crosby will stuff every fantasy category, including a better-than-average 70-plus penalty minutes. A disappointing free-agent period for the Pittsburgh Penguins means Crosby still doesn't have a winger above the level of Pascal Dupuis, but he will share the ice often enough with Evgeni Malkin and James Neal to make up for it. Besides, Crosby produces points all on his own.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Tue Sep 11"},"positionRank":1}
