Fantasy Analysis

It's really great to see Pothier on the ice for Washington and actually contributing after a severe concussion threatened to bring his career to an end. Pothier was a promising blueliner before the injury and is starting to look like his former self. Still, he has low-end Fantasy appeal until further notice.
