Still, he remains a key source of power for a Bronx Bomber squad that may actually need more pop this season. Last year, Cano set a career high in runs while enjoying his best power season yet. Yes, the Yanks exercised their $15 million option on him for 2013, but this is his walk season, so that’s a story that will need to be closely monitored. The slam dunk first keystone corner dude off the board, Cano is likely going in the middle of the first round after setting a career high in wRC+. Sure, he stunk it up in the playoffs, but over the course of an entire season, no one is in Cano’s class at second base.

Votto’s midseason knee injury wound up costing the Canadian slugger over 50 games, although his extra-base pop was pretty damn impressive regardless. Not surprisingly, his stolen base total dipped, but you could argue that he was on track for a career year before going down. Factor in Votto’s continued strong glovework at first base, and you’ve got yourself one of the best all-around talents in the game. Unfortunately, the knee is obviously not yet 100 per cent given that it’s not a sure thing he’ll be on the Canadian team at the WBC.

The guy does his most lethal work on the weekends, tallying nearly half his points in the last two seasons away from the normal workweek. Last season, Malkin racked up 52 of his league-leading 109 points on Saturdays and Sundays. He was a 50-50 guy and in a shortened season… a 30-30 season or something relatively close would not be that shocking this season. The knee problems are in the past and the future is filled with a player who is the best Fantasy performer in all the land.

It is tough not to rank the reigning Vezina winner number one but, hey, just watch us. Why? The late season swoon Lundqvist had was too much to ignore. In Fantasy crunch time (from March on), he posted a meager .895 save percentage and was well rested. Add in the burdens of being a new father and you have to wonder how he will respond. Lundqvist did end up with 39 wins and a .930 save percentage last season — not too shabby. With the shortened schedule, he could see around 38-to-40 starts and produce Vezina-caliber numbers.

2013 RotoRob NHL Draft Kit: Defenceman Rankings

It was tough to drop Byfuglien given he had 53 points in just 66 games but Karlsson’s rise was too hard to ignore and Weber should be allowed to play “full out” in a 48-game schedule. Byfuglien’s team has a tougher travel schedule than most and that may play a factor. However, the guy can shoot the puck and be a force on both sides of the ice. He also plays a punishing brand of hockey like our No. 1 defenceman. That alone allows Byfugline to maintain at least a top three spot in our rankings.
