Montreal Canadiens defenseman Shea Weber has been missed mightily by the team. The Canadiens are currently 1-5-0 through 6 games, and the Habs look like a completely different team compared to last year. Apparently Shea Weber is also missing the team, as he is going to lengths in order to be a part of it in some way.

According to NHL reporter Chantal Machabée, Weber will be spending a few days in Seattle with the team, before returning to British Columbia on Wednesday.

Weber likely wants to be with the boys after being told that he is a longshot to ever play again. Habs general manager Marc Bergevin did indeed have a plan for the captain though.

«I think Shea's presence means a lot, says a lot. Lots of times just his look, the way he looked at the team or the players would send a message and that's hard to do from Kelowna (where Weber is now). I have a plan in mind that I'm trying to play out for Shea. Until I do that I'm going to keep that with me. But if something comes up I'll let you guys know.»

So although the fan favorite may never play again, it sounds like he will be trying to be a part of the team as much as possible, as he is still one of the most looked up to players in the NHL.
