He is as steady of a fantasy hockey goalie as you will find and plays behind of the strongest offences in hockey. However, he draws one of the other really good offences in Dallas tonight.
Bogosian has had an incredibly difficult time staying healthy throughout his career. He missed 20 games last season and a combined 96 games over the last three seasons. He played massive minutes (26:34 TOI/GM) with the Sabres last year and is expected to be leaned o heavily this year. His absence means the Sabres will lead to increased roles for the likes of Rasmus Ristolainen and Cody Franson.
