Taylor Doherty

As the Sharks did some bulking up during the offseason, they re-signed Doherty, a 6-foot-7, 235-pound defenseman. Doherty is huge presence on the blue line, but isn't likely to find himself on the Sharks' opening night roster, though he could very possibly make his NHL debut this season. As far as fantasy, he'll bring in some penalty minutes, but he doesn't have the offensive upside to compliment the penalty minutes. Through 69 games in the AHL last year, he registered four goals and 11 assists, which is up from his one goal and nine assists through 40 games the season prior. Those numbers aren't terrible, but they don't bode well for his production capabilities on the big stage. Between the lack of points and that he'll likely start with limited minutes if he does get the call up, his fantasy value is limited.
