Will Cuylle of the New York Rangers is proving to be more than just a typical bottom-six winger. With 17 points in 20 games, he has showcased an impressive scoring ability, especially considering his limited ice time. Cuylle's efficiency is highlighted by his ranking among the top skaters in fantasy points per 60 minutes, demonstrating his potential to contribute significantly to fantasy teams.

Despite a recent promotion to the top six due to injuries, Cuylle's performance indicates he can remain relevant even if he returns to a bottom-six role. His physical play and scoring touch make him a valuable asset, and fantasy managers are taking notice as his roster percentage rises.
