Anaheim – Joffrey Lupul (RW)– With an off-season trade that saw him return to Anaheim, Lupul is poised to have a break-out season. Lining up on the second line with veterans Koivu and Selanne, the 25 year old should see 60 points without breaking a sweat. That’s a 10 point increase from last season.
FEARLESS FORECAST – 81 GP – 30 G – 32 A – 62 PTS
Dallas – Steve Ott (C)– The Dallas Stars suffered some big losses upfront last season with injuries but that allowed some of their young players to emerge and make an impact on the team. Steve Ott was a virtual unknown that contributed in various ways in Dallas. With 46 points in 64 games, Ott also contributes in the penalty minutes department adding 135 PIMs as a great fantasy option.

Los Angeles – Jonathan Quick (G)– Another young and talented team heading in the right direction. Quick came on the scene last year in LA and played the majority of games for the team. With a winning record of 21 W and 18 L, he will split time with Ersberg but should come out as the true number one this season.
FEARLESS FORECAST – 27 W – 23 L – 3 OTL – 3 SO
Phoenix – Keith Yandle (D)– With the future unknown in Phoenix, the ownership or lack thereof, has decided to go ahead with a continued youth movement. Yandle is a young defenseman that has the offensive ability to quarterback a powerplay. Benched at times last year for his lack of defensive ability, the 22 year old is just beginning his career. With 30 points in 69 games, Yandle should see regular minutes and time on the powerplay this season.
FEARLESS FORECAST – 80 GP – 6 G – 28 A – 34 PTS
San Jose – Joe Pavelski (C)– With all the high priced talent in San Jose, the little guy often gets lost in the shuffle. Little Joe Pavelski does not get a lot of attention but as the second line center on a power house team, he should. With 59 points in 80 games last year, he was an integral part of the President Trophy win. Little Joe should hit the mid sixty point mark as his responsibilities increase in San Jose.
FEARLESS FORECAST – 81 GP – 26 G – 37 A – 62 PTS
