Re: Is there ever a time to bench Crosby?
He had 7 goals in the first 8 games this year....which means 3 in his last 24. He has 69 shots over those 24 games, just under 3 per game, but he's only shooting 4.5%. No points on the powerplay in the last 12 games, and no PPG in the last 17.
He had 33 points in his first 22 games....a 123 point pace. The points slump began right around the start of December, shortly before he missed some time with the mumps. The lack of goal scoring overall is a little weird, but I wouldn't be worrying about it.
