SEASON FANTASY RECAP AND TREND

Jake Guentzel had a good, but not elite, year in fantasy. He is the number #17 ranked wing and the #65 ranked skater overall. His high ranking is definitely helped by his number of games played (83). Based on average fantasy points he is the #21 wing. Guentzel did not show a clear upward or downward trend as the season progressed. He averaged 2.7 FPs in his first 27 games, 2.5 in the middle of his season and 2.8 in his final 2.8 games. His fantasy production is stable and he is not as volatile as most players based on a below average standard deviation. He averaged 2.6 FPs, but on any given day his projected ceiling is as high as 14 fantasy points.
