Robidas has first four-point game: Stephane Robidas kept shooting the puck, and good things kept happening for the Dallas defenseman. Robidas had two goals and two assists, rookie Tom Wandell scored the tiebreaking goal midway through the third period and the Stars beat the New Jersey Devils 5-3 on Saturday. "Sometimes everything you touch seems to go in," Robidas said after his second career two-goal game. "It's pretty simple." Robidas had his first career four-point game, adding eight hits and two blocked shots. "He's a warrior," said Brad Richards, who had four assists. "He does things game in and game out that only teammates see. We know how valuable he is. His heart is always in the right place." (Updated 11/22/2009).

Fantasy Analysis
There are some players you never have to ask to step up or give a little more. They don't need motivating. They do that on their own and come with a strong game -- or as close as they can get to it -- just about every time. Robidas is one of those guys. The 5-foot-11 veteran would never intimidate anyone with his size, but he definitely makes up for that with his heart and toughness. He's also become a locker room leader, wearing an "A" after earning it late last season. Signed to a four-year extension before this season started, Robidas is showing once again how dependable he is. "I never put big numbers up, I just try to focus playing defensively and physically," Robidas said. "So when I can contribute offensively to help, it's really nice." Robidas has 14 points in 22 games this season and is going to be a hot pickup in Fantasy. He is well on his way to eclipsing his career-high 26 points. (Updated 11/22/2009).
