Sabres hope veterans help prospects adjust to lineup

The Buffalo Sabres finished 2013-14 with the fewest points in a full 82-game NHL season since the New York Islanders had the same amount, 52, in 2000-01. 2014-15 FANTASY PREVIEW: SABRES Undervalued: Cody Hodgson -- After breaking out with 34 points during the lockout-shortened season, Hodgson disappointed last year with 20 goals, 44 points and a minus-26 in 72 games.

However, Hodgson, 24, is one of the Sabres' top centers and should continue to receive ample power play time (3:08 per game last season). He's in line for a solid bounce-back season, and you can expect 25-plus goals, 60-plus points with at least 25 power-play points. Just know his plus/minus could hurt you.

Overvalued: Matt Moulson -- For years Moulson was an undervalued fantasy player, but most of that value came from playing wing alongside John Tavares on the New York Islanders. When Moulson landed in Buffalo he struggled with 11 goals, 28 points and a minus-8 in 44 games. He was traded to the Minnesota Wild, where he had six goals and 13 points in 20 games.

Now back with the Sabres, Moulson likely will return to something close to the production he had in those 44 games last season. He might finish with about 20 goals and 50 points, but his substandard rating will make him nothing more than a bench forward in most leagues.
