Overall since joining the Rangers, Brassard's on a point-per-game pace, as it appears the change of scenery from Columbus has done the playmaking center a world of good.","date":"Tue May 14"},"fullName":"Derick Brassard","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Brassard has been nothing short of disappointing in the NHL for fantasy owners who waited for his arrival. The agile 24-year-old has offense to his game but has struggled to display it beyond the 47 points he managed in 2010-11. Brassard is supposed to play a complete ice game but finished minus-20 last season. Has he been playing in the shadow of Rick Nash and only now -- as one of the most talented offensive players left on the team -- will he emerge? That's probably not how it will happen. But fresh faces and new opportunities with ice time will allow Brassard to take some steps with his game that have been long awaited. The payoff won't likely be there this season for fantasy owners, but it's too soon to lose all hope in Brassard turning into a playmaking star one day.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Tue Sep 11"},"playerRater30DAY":7.1,"playerRater15DAY":4.1,"positionRank":35}
