| While the San Jose Sharks may not be reaching the promised land as a team, the talent at the top of their depth chart gives them lots of value for fantasy owners. Breeland Speaks Chiefs Jersey . Top Picks: There is a changing of the guard in San Jose, where C Logan Couture is emerging as a more productive option ahead of C Joe Thornton. Couture has 84 goals over the last three seasons, tied with Patrick Marleau and Jonathan Toews for seventh spot. At 24, hes just hitting his peak years and could be considered as a low-end No. 1 pivot, though hes outstanding if hes your No. 2. Thornton is hardly put out to pasture. Even in the last three years, when his point totals have declined below the point-per-game threshold, his 141 assists ranks fourth. LW Patrick Marleaus production has tailed off -- last years 0.65 points per game was his second-lowest since 2002. Even so, Marleau has 166 goals since 2008-2009; only Alex Ovechkin and Steven Stamkos (both 208) have more. Consistency is part of the reason for RW Joe Pavelski being so valuable. That, and his ability to play wing and centre. Pavelski has 268 points since 2008-2009, ranking 45th (his 117 goals ranks 32nd), so hes a reasonable low-end No. 1 option on right wing, so long as the Sharks dont move him into the third-line centre role too often. In three seasons with the Sharks, G Antti Niemi ranks seventh with a .919 save percentage and is tied for third with 93 wins. Easy pick as a fantasy starting goaltender, though he might come at a premium price after a career-best season in 2013. Veteran D Dan Boyle played 22:38 per game last season, his lowest ice time since 2003-2004 and his scoring (0.43 ppg) was at his lowest level since 2001-2002. Hes 37-years-old and could be slowing down, or he could be a veteran player who didnt play anywhere during the lockout. As it is, hes San Joses best option on the blueline and probably worth of a No. 2 spot in most fantasy leagues. Value Plays: Theres an ongoing back-and-forth between the Sharks and RW Martin Havlat about whether or not Havlat will be ready to play at the start of the season, following offseason groin surgery. Even if he is, Havlat isnt a stranger to missing time with injuries (though hes been healthier in recent seasons). He has 45 points in 79 games in two years with the Sharks, which is underwhelming, but that production would be enough to generate some fantasy interest, particularly considering his upside, as a seven-time 50-point scorer. Sleepers/Breakthrough: RW Brent Burns may be a sleeper in some respects, because hes moving to right wing for a full season, but hes on everyones radar after last year, so youre going to have to pay full retail prices. With nine goals and 20 points in 24 games on right wing last season, Burns offers the potential for, perhaps, a 30-goal season while skating on the wing with a setup man like Joe Thornton. 25-year-old D Matt Irwin didnt ease his way into the lineup last year, playing more than 19 minutes per game as a rookie, but he acquitted himself well and his bomb from the point gives him power play value. He may not have draft day value in anything but the deepest leagues, but hes one to watch. Rookies: The 17th pick in the 2012 Draft, LW Tomas Hertl is going to have a legitimate chance to crack the Sharks top six forwards after scoring 18 goals in 43 Czech League games last season. Given the quality of San Joses top forwards, thats a great situation for a skilled young forward and one that makes Hertl worth a try as a No. 4 left winger, if only for the upside play.

TORONTO -- Scott Milanovich came to Anthony Calvillos defence Thursday. The Toronto Argonauts head coach said the media criticism Calvillo has endured this season is unfair and the veteran quarterbacks critics have been too quick to forget his many achievements in his 16 seasons with the Montreal Alouettes. "Ive had a hard time watching whats going on with Anthony, particularly the heat he has taken from the media," Milanovich told reporters in his news conference prior to Friday nights game with Calgary. "The guy is a first-ballot Hall of Famer and has held that organization on his shoulders for years and years. "I feel like its not fair to him. Thats from an outsider that at one point was his coach and even today still feels protective of him." Calvillo, who turns 41 on Friday, missed Montreals game Thursday night with B.C. due to a concussion suffered in Sundays 24-21 loss to Saskatchewan. Third-year veteran Josh Neiswandermade his first CFL star in Calvillos absence, but was replaced by rookie QB Tanner Marsh in the Alouettes 39-38 rally over the B.C. Lions on Thursday night. But the injury to Calvillo just adds to the challenge of whats been a season to forget so far for the struggling Alouettes (3-5). The six-foot-one, 200-pound Calvillo, in his 20th CFL season and pro footballs all-time passing leader, is sixth among league passers with 1,322 yards. Calvillo began the 2013 campaign with a career completion percentage of 62.5 per cent but this year has completed 115-of-196 passes (58.7 per cent) with six TDs and five inteerceptions. Armani Watts Chiefs Jersey. . Thats a far cry from Calvillos production the five previous seasons under former head coach Marc Trestman, now with the NFLs Chicago Bears, and Milanovich, who was Montreals offensive co-ordinator from 2008-11 before becoming Torontos head coach. Calvillo, a five-time CFL all-star and 10-time East Division selection, surpassed the 5,000-yard passing plateau three times over that span and in 08 had a career-high 43 TD passes. He also won two Grey Cups, two CFL outstanding player awards and was named a league all-star three times. This season, Montreals offence is ranked last in total yards (280 per game), passing yards (214.6), completion percentage (56.6) and second-last in scoring (22.3 points per game). New coach Dan Hawkins was fired after just five games and replaced on an interim basis by GM Jim Popp. But predictably a lot of the criticism for the Alouettes offensive woes this season has been directed at Calvillo. Milanovich earned two Grey Cup rings with Montreal before leading Toronto to a CFL championship last year. He said theres much more to appreciate about Calvillo than just his ability to play football. "I know what kind of person he is, what kind of man he is so I dont like to hear those sorts of things," Milanovich said. "As a friend, a concussion is always scary. "I dont know the specifics of how serious it was or how long hell be out or what his status was on the sidelines. I sent him a text this week (to say) I was thinking of him. Im always concerned for those guys."
