Fantasy Analysis
Gleason will make between $2 million and $3.5 million over the four seasons. The Hurricanes acquired him in 2006 in a trade that sent highly touted defenseman prospect Jack Johnson to Los Angeles. Gleason had three goals, 16 assists and 84 penalty minutes in 80 games last season. He is a solid two-way player, but is more important to his team than Fantasy owners. He is at best a low-end Fantasy defenseman on Draft Day. (Updated 06/20/2008).
