Wayne Simmonds potted a goal in the Flyers' 5-3 loss to the Lightning Monday night. Simmonds has set a new career high in goals this season with 24 and has also provided value in several fantasy categories. However, he has endured his share of slumps in 2011-12 but should still be owned in 14-team leagues.

Wayne Simmonds has enjoyed a great month of February with 12 points in 10 games. He kept his hottest stretch of the 2011-12 campaign going in Tuesday night's 4-3 overtime win over Winnipeg with a goal and an assist. Simmonds forced the contest into overtime, with his 22nd marker, with just 10 second left in regulation. The feisty winger can also help your team in hits and penalty minutes, so he's worth picking up for the stretch run.

Wayne Simmonds potted two goals in the Flyers' 7-2 win over the Buffalo Sabres Thursday night. Simmonds took a puck to the mouth in warmups tonight and came back with a face mask to score two goals in the win, including the game winner. Simmonds is delivering a ton of value for fantasy owners this season and should be owned in 14-team leagues, especially if you need help in the penalty minutes department. If you also have Claude Giroux (five assists) tonight, you should be in good shape in your head-to-head matchup this week.

Wayne Simmonds is on his way to a career season with the Philadelphia Flyers. Simmonds, 23, has already equaled his career high with 16 goals - two more than he produced for the Kings in the 2010-11 season. The Toronto native should also shatter his previous career-high in shots on goal. "I think maturity has a lot to do with it," he said. "This is my fourth year in the league, and it's taken me a bit of time to learn different aspects of the game. That's why it takes a little time. The more you know the league, the better off you are. You know your limitations and what you can and can't do, and that makes it a lot easier." He's worth a look in 14-team leagues, especially if you need help in the penalty minutes department.
