I'd say he's legit.
His last full season was 49pts, 115pims.
He had over 80pims last year, with a prorated 50-55 points.
Definitely looks like he's solidifying a spot on the first PP unit in Philly, too.
That measures up fairly well.
Close to 100 games now at about 0.7 ppg. Do you see anyone threatening his pp time or 2nd line spot, or is he now a legitimate too 50-75 forward in multicat leagues?

for multicat... he's a solid option!!
Simmonds is one tough hombre. I said before he went to Philly he looked like he could become a 30 goal power forward and I remember people scoffing at the notion with great disdain. Anyways, he's definitely entering the Milan Lucic-level of fantasy production in terms of consistent goals/points + PIMs
I wouldn't count on him for more than 65 points a year. He could get more but I think its unlikely and if he does it will be a special year that he won't repeat often. For most seasons he will probably be around 45-60 points. For multicat leagues though this guy is really valuable.

Yeah, I think Simmonds is pretty dependable when it comes to fantasy value. He does a lot of things to help you.
He plays a hard game and I'd like to see him succeed...tough to maintain that type of play...remember when Hartnell was the toast of Philly?
