Nugent-Hopkins eventually will be a triple-digit point threat, but fantasy owners shouldn't put all their eggs in this basket just yet. Still 19 years old, Nugent-Hopkins relies on his ability to fight through high-traffic areas with the puck to do his job, but as we saw from his shoulder injury, he isn't a bulky player yet. At 6-foot-1, he can certainly add some pounds to his frame to better withstand the jostling his style will take in the NHL. Does he need another season to grow into his superstardom? Maybe not. But if you draft him on his potential for this season, he is going to have to meet your expectations for your fantasy team to break even. If someone wants to jump on Nugent-Hopkins in the second round of your draft, let them. If he is still there in the fifth round, your bets are sufficiently hedged to nab him and live through a possible sophomore slump.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Tue Sep 11"},"playerRater30DAY":3.2,"playerRater15DAY":0.7,"positionRank":44}
