Red Wings' Steve Ott: Starting on Friday

Ott will be in Friday's lineup against the Predators, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

Analysis:

Ott will replace young sparkplug Andreas Athanasiou based on the Red Wings needing to be tough against the pesky team from Smashville. Ott's fantasy utility is limited to leagues that count the rough stuff, such as hits and penalty minutes.
