Fantasy Forecast: Regression on the horizon

The fantasy hockey world is a fickle beast. A nefarious, cold-hearted beast. One that will dangle all your hopes and dreams in front of you only to quickly pull back the curtain to expose a tiny man with a loud megaphone pretending to be a God.

It's why we can never be complacent. Evolution is a constant. Those who can be proactive will always be one step ahead of the reactive crew. And so you've landed in the correct spot today. Because we're about to explore some of the players who, on the surface, may look like safe bets for continued production but are actually ripe for the fall from grace.

Don't worry, next time we'll flip the script and focus on a group of players that may appear to be a big old yawn, but in actuality have the sneaky goods to step up and grab your heartstrings, if even just for a moment or three.
