Coyle had 0 points and was a -1 in 5 games with the WIld.

The former #3 overall pick is a good NHL D-man but not a good fantasy player. This will be a welcomed addition to the Panthers lineup but don't go running to the waiver wire to pick him up.

Coyle played 12:44 in his first game yesterday but didn't register a point. After just one game he is already getting moved up to the first line in place of Dany Heatley who will be bumped to the second line. This is a great opportunity for the young winger who will play with two great players in Mikko Koivu and Zach Parise.

Gudbranson hasn't played yet this season since off season shoulder surgery, an injury he suffered while wake boarding. He was suspended and sent to the AHL where he recently played two games, he has yet to practice with the Panthers but could very well be in the lineup tonight.

Gudbranson can be a good fantasy option when he puts it all together. He can score, hit and racks up PIM's. However he is expected to miss the first three games of the year. Not a good start.

Gudbranson isn't expected to be fantasy relevant this season but now we have a timetable for his return.

Gudbranson injured himself wakeboarding in the offseason and there is no timetable for his return.

Jenner just finished his third season with the Oshawa Generals, scoring 22 goals and 49 points in 43 games.

Gudbranson will get back into the lineup tonight. The rookie has two goals and six points with 60 PIM in 55 games.

Coyle left Boston University this year to speed up his transition to the professional ranks. The rising pivot should have an opportunity to make the Wild out of training camp following a playoff run in the QMJHL.

With only six healthy defensemen, Gudbranson will either play or be replaced by a minor leaguer. A lack of recalled d-man likely indicates he stays in the lineup tonight.

Tough break as Gudbranson is just coming off his first NHL goal. Look for Keaton Ellerby to draw back into the lineup.

Gudbranson in means Keaton Ellerby remains out of the lineup. The rookie is still looking for his first NHL point.

Gudbranson draws in for the first time since November 17th. The former 3rd overall pick is still looking for his first NHL point.

Hard to justify rostering Gudbranson in single-season leagues. The former 3rd overall pick has no points through 14 games.

If you were worried about a Gudbranson demotion, fear not fantasy hockey owners. Now all you have to worry about is his lack of ice time but playing, and likely living, with Ed Jovanovski should help.

Gudbranson registered four shots on goal and three hits over his first two NHL games. He will continue to get his feet wet and ease into his responsibilities.

Gudbranson registered four shots on goal and three hits over his first two NHL games. Look for him to break into the lineup slowly as the team does not need to rush him.

Gudbranson should at least stick with the club on a nine-game tryout. Last season he scored 12 goals and 34 points over 44 games with the Kingston Frontenacs. However, considering the team has no reason to rush their youngsters, expect another year of close-to-no fantasy hockey impact.
