Fantasy Analysis
In three years and 228 games in the NHL, Umberger has 49 goals and 67 assists, all with Philadelphia. Umberger was motivated by looming free agency last season, when he put up 50 points, and that was a huge factor in his breakout season. He could be one to disappoint in 2008-09, so he is more of a No. 5 or No. 6 Fantasy forward on Draft Day. (Updated 07/07/2008).
