Phil Kessel - I'm so happy for Kessel, no player in the sport has been under pressure like him to produce for a franchise. 11 games played; 10 goals, 8 assists, 38 shots, +6. It has been a superb start to the 2011-12 campaign. Thomas Vanek - I personally targeted Vanek on all of my fantasy teams. The Buffalo Sabres made several changes to wards becoming an elite team...
