Canadian journalist Tremblay rips Shea Weber in recent story

Montreal Canadiens captain Shea Weber has not played at all this season due to injury, and he may never play in the NHL again. Being a captain, it would be assumed that Weber would still be a leader with the team, but apparently that is not the case in Montreal.

Canadian journalist Rejean Tremblay absolutely ripped Shea Weber's attitude and actions this year in a recent story.

«Before we worked out the details for a Genesis, he told me about this Weber, the reigning captain of the Montreal Canadiens, who refused to come out and support his teammates, to cheer on Kent Hughes and Martin St-Louis in person and who is too rude to even talk to reporters when they travel out west with the Canadiens. A real shame.

How is it that everyone slept through the gas in this case? Weber is the Canadiens captain, but we were weighing the chances and merits of Brendan Gallagher. The poor man who was seen as a future captain is falling apart and now we're talking about Nick Suzuki as the future "C" carrier.

We forget that the captain is in Vancouver, that he hasn't come to meet his teammates in Montreal except once in November, that he saw Marc Bergevin and Dominique Ducharme get fired and replaced by Hughes and St-Louis and that His Lordship is still too haughty to address the populace.»

It does seem somewhat odd that Weber has remained silent throughout this entire season, but maybe there could be some sort of riff between management and the veteran defenseman. Of course, Weber probably has other things to think about, like recovering from a plethora of injuries including his thumb, ankle, foot, and knee problems.
