Fantasy Analysis
Fedorov last scored a goal on Feb. 21 when he was with the Columbus Blue Jackets. Fedorov's days as a solid Fantasy contributor appear to be over, as he only has 33 points this season. He will help the Capitals a lot more than he will help your Fantasy team, so continue to view him as a low-end Fantasy flier in deeper formats. (Updated 03/17/2008).
