There are a few repeat customers in this week's column, but we focus on defensemen, young and old, that can help your teams. It's never easy to get your hands on blueliners with 35-40 point upside, so pay special attention to the few that we highlight this week: Dougie Hamilton D, Boston Bruins: Zdeno Charas loss with his injury is Hamiltons gain in terms of getting more valuable ice time on pp. Dougie responded with a big game agsinst the Leafs, notching one goal and two assists. Expected to carry the defense with "Big Z" out, look for the uber-talented rearguard to grow considerably as a consistent scoring option during the next 4-6 weeks. The young Hamilton was highly touted as a proven scorer upon being draftef by Boston, and now should have his chance to showcase his skills in his 3rd year. His dynasty upside is huge.. David Desharnais C, Montreal: Poor David often gets overlooked as a valuable fantasy asset but the fact remains that he is top line centre of the Habs and is on a roll with four points in the last four games. One of these years, the stars will align and Desharnais will have a big PPG season but for now, use him while he is hot. It doesn't help his long term numbers when he is playing with one of streakiest wingers around in Max Pacioretty. 55-60 points should be a safe bet,making him a solid 4th or 5th fantasy forward. Lubomir Visnovsky D, NYI: Don't look now but after a hot start, Johnny Boychuk has fizzled out a bit for the islanders. It sounds like perfect timing for the return of offensive defenseman Visnovsky, who collected a goal and an assist in last game against Lightning. The fact that he played more than 20 minutes including 2:39 on the primary power play unit- tops on the team, means that he is working his way back up as the teams top scoring option on the blueline. He's worth a waiver wire grab but be prepared to replace him if he gets hurt. Ride him while he is healthy as he has top ten upside, but he has been very brittle in recent years. Mike Ribeiro C, Nashville: The veteran pivot makes our list again for a second straight week as fantasy hockey owners have yet to fully embrace him in all leagues. He had his 4-game point streak snapped Saturday night, but his chemistry with James Neal is building with every passing game. Ribeiro is a proven scorer on every level and he looks very comfortable in Coach Laviolette's offensive system. This should be the last we mention of him as his ownership in all fantasy formats should skyrocket. Sami Vatanen D, Anaheim: With seven points in eight games-all on the man advantage- this Finnish sensation is coming into his own offensively and has surpassed Fowler on the pp depth chart. We included him in last weeks column and he has responded with 4 points in last 2 games. Playing on such a dynamic power play in Anaheim should result in a career year for the highly-skilled youngster. Boudreau loves him on the power-play so you know he will continue to get his chances.
