Dustin Penner doesn't have a point in four preseason games. Penner has a chance to play alongside Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry this season, but nothing is set in stone. "We want it to work," Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said. "But in the end, he's going to have to be the one that produces and shows that he deserves to be on that line." The experiment has been complicated by the fact that Perry's been dealing with a torso injury. Still, this is one situation that's worth keeping a close eye on in October.

Dustin Penner is happy with whatever assignment he gets in Anaheim. "What's important to me at this stage of my career is just winning," Penner said. "I want to be one of those guys that can be dependable and accountable for the coaching staff to be put out there not just in a power-play situation but the end of the game, up by one, things like that. You want to be able to be a utility, Swiss-army-knife type thing." That being said, Penner is projected to play alongside Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry. Although that obviously might not last, such an assignment would significantly boost his fantasy value.

If Penner continues to play alongside them during the preseason, then he would be worth gambling on towards the end of standard fantasy league drafts.
