Kinda like Bobby Ryan last offseason. Hopefully he’s back at doing highlight reel goals and passes. Helps Voracek a bit too.

Giroux had a pretty underwhelming season, regular and playoffs, in terms of points. He's reportedly been battling this lingering injury all season and underwent treatments to avoid surgery. Timeline is only 8 weeks so won't drag into next season. But might help to explain why we saw the dip in production.

I thought something was up, he definitely didn't look the same down the stretch or in the playoffs..

Angus is my best friend at dobberhockey..
The hernia surgery isn't a big deal. I actually just had one. The Hernia showed up in January, and I continued playing hockey at full capacity until my surgery at the beginning of March, and now, two months later I am back to full health.
If the hip injury was what was really dragging him down, then that would explain the slow season. Hopefully he can bounce back as well as Benn did from it.

Apparently Ghost is out as well. It's interesting that they seem to be very similar injuries. Hopefully they both have successful recoveries!
