Despite once being a model of consistency, Higgins spent the past season between the NHL and AHL. A lack of foot speed, finish around the net, and past injuries forced the Canucks to send Higgins to AHL Utica, where he appeared in 22 games. He only finished the season in the NHL after the team suffered a slew of injuries, and managed just three goals in 33 games. He’s a very capable fourth-line winger, but at age 33 he’s no longer an attractive fantasy option.
