For the second time in three periods the Los Angeles Kings will be the guarding Stanley Cup champion and will start the campaign with nearly much the same roster to the title-winning one.

The Kings are loaded down the middle, could be even better on the wings with a full season associated with Marian Gaborik, Tanner Pearson and Tyler Toffoli, and will have one of the finest tandems in net with Jonathan Quick and Martin Jones.

2014-15 FANTASY PREVIEW: KINGS

Undervalued: Rob Carter -- In the past six periods,Kyle Cumiskey Jersey five players have more complete goals than Carter's 189 (Alex Ovechkin, Steven Stamkos, Corey Perry, Patrick Marleau and Phil Kessel), and three players possess more shots on goal as compared to his 1,569 (Ovechkin, Kessel and Eric Staal). Carter has found his niche in Los Angeles, and though his 46-goal, 84-point season regarding 2008-09 with the Philadelphia Flyers may well be a distant memory,Nick Leddy Jersey 30 goals, 65 points, a great plus/minus and 250-plus shots to expect for the 29-year-old forward. Look to draft him in the top five times.

Overvalued: Slava Voynov -- Voynov did have a career-high 34 points final season to rank 36th among NHL defensemen, but he took a step back coming from his 25 points during the lockout-shortened period.Sheldon Brookbank Jersey A big reason for that is the Leaders used Voynov in a more protective role, pairing him with shut down defender Robyn Regehr in the regular period and then Willie Mitchell during the Stanley Cup 2010 playoffs when Regehr was injured. Voynov acquired 13 power-play points and obtained nearly three minutes of man-advantage time per game,Duncan Keith Jersey but his / her goal total has decreased in three consecutive seasons. Voynov can be a draftable defenseman in standard leagues, but there's a good chance teammate Jake Muzzin outproduces him or her, in large part because he plays together with Drew Doughty.

Sleeper: Dustin Brown -- The Kings captain is coming off the worst mathematical season of his job with 15 goals and 27 points in Seventy nine games,Sheldon Brookbank Jersey but there's reason to expect a solid bounce-back season. En route to his second Stanley Cup title, the forward had half a dozen goals and eight assists along with tremendous peripheral stats inside 26 playoff games. The key factor for the 29-year-old is he ought to start the season on the top line with playmaker Anze Kopitar and sniper Marian Gaborik. Many fantasy drafters is going to be turned off by Brown's lack of production last season, but a return in order to his usual 25 targets, 55 points, 50-plus penalty moments, solid power-play totals, a good rating, and a minimum of 200 shots on aim should be anticipated.
