New Season, New Questions...2013 Edition
So the lockout shortened 2013 season is underway and we're about 2 weeks into the season. While it's still early, there are a few questions that have come up.
1) Shea Weber. Is this him struggling to adjust to the loss of Ryan Suter and a temporary issue? Or is this just the new him, post-Suter area? 7 games, 0 points, -1, 11 PIM's, 18 SOGs, 19 hits, 9 blocks.
2) Alex Ovechkin. This is the third season he's started out slow and now the second season questions of his status are coming up. Is he just getting used to the new Oates system, or is he just not the effective player he was before? 2 goals and 3 points in 8 games?
3) Giroux. Is he just in a down period as a result of his team? Or is he just a 60-70 point player that over excelled last season?
Feel free to comment and add more potential questions
