Fantasy Analysis
Stumpel was placed on unconditional waivers in late June by the Panthers and that pretty much opened the door for him to leave the NHL. Stumpel had seven goals, 13 assists and a minus-11 rating in 52 games last season. He spent a good deal of the 2007-08 season on IR with a nagging shoulder injury. He had tallied 50-plus points in the previous two seasons. Stumpel can now be ignored in Fantasy. (Updated 07/15/2008).
