Evidently pleased with the veteran's bottom-six work, the Avalanche signed Wilson for another year. Despite coming off a campaign in which he posted 27 points in 65 regular-season appearances -- in addition to eight points through 12 playoff games -- the stalwart agreed to stick with Colorado at a bargain rate of $2.6 million. Wilson is a perennial power-play contributor, though he doesn't log enough playing time to crack double-digit totals in that key special teams spot. While the vast majority of fantasy owners will bypass Wilson in season-long leagues, he will surely cater to the ever-present DFS crowd that routinely scours the player pool for value options to succeed in select tournaments and cash games.
