D CHI
It took 15 games and 38 shots on goal, but the Predators Shea Weber finally scored his first goal of the season in Saturday's loss to the Ducks.
The goal, which was the 100th of Weber's career, was just the third point of the campaign for the Nashville blue liner. Coach Barry Trotz is hopeful it will mark the start of an offensive resurgence for the captain."Hopefully that opens the gates," he said. "It's probably not critical that he scored today, but from, I think, from that standpoint, hopefully it'll open some floodgates, because once he scores one, they start to come." We can't completely ignore the struggles he has endured so far, but Weber should still be considered among the top fantasy blue liners around going forward.
