In four years of NHL service time, he has steadily climbed up the depth chart to the point where he's widely considered the team's most prolific blueliner. Vatanen fashioned a 38-point season, with half of those (four goals, 15 assists) made possible by his quarterbacking the top power-play unit. This level of productivity effectively duplicated his prior season, proving that he's evolving into a dependable, offensive-minded asset. Vatanen has averaged a little over 21 minutes of ice time per game in recent seasons, yet there's room for an even larger role, so he may be a big beneficiary of the Ducks' coaching change as new bench boss Randy Carlyle traditionally recognizes his big guns, rewarding them with all the playing time they can handle. Vatanen comes packed with upside heading into the 2016-17 season, so draft accordingly.","seasonId":2017,"date":"Thu Sep 15"},"playerRater30DAY":1.4,"playerRater15DAY":3.9,"positionRank":54}
