Fantasy Analysis
The 56 points last season were a career-high for the six-year veteran. He did really well playing alongside the likes of Shane Doan and Peter Mueller. The Lightning have been going crazy in the offseason signing free agents, which means that Vrbata might end up being a second- or third-line forward for the Lightning. It's probably safe for Fantasy owners to expect 40-50 points from Vrbata, which would make him a low-end forward. (Updated 07/01/2008).
