Bruins' Zdeno Chara: Back in lineup Monday

Chara (lower body) is back in the lineup for Monday's game against the Panthers, the Bruins announced.

Analysis:

The crafty veteran is no longer at the peak of his production, but his 22:41 minutes per game and his role on the power play still make him a valuable fantasy player. After missing the last six games, it might take Chara a bit of time to get back to peak performance, but once he's back, he will be a comforting presence for the Bruins and fantasy owners alike.
