Then he makes an error and the earth stops turning. He's a offensive dman who has been thrown from side to side like old panties with no confidence. TOP IT ALL UP BY BEING 23.

I'm one of the bigger Weber defenders here. I think there's definitely an NHLer in there. He was very good for the first half of the game, playing physical, and looking dangerous on both ends. He was good on the PP too. But then he made his typical mistakes.

I would hate to give him up for nothing but he's not going to develop under this terrible coaching. The truth is I just don't think we have room for him with more well rounded defenders a year or so away, I'd like to be wrong though. I think he has Streit-like potential (Streit wasn't good enough for the AHL at Weber's age), but you can never be sure, Streit was a strange case.

I blame the management more than Weber, that's for sure.

Then again, we could have gotten a #1 pick for him

I'm not sad Grabo and Ribeiro are gone. SK, it's hard to tell because really I think AK has had a much better attitude than his brother. In the grand scheme of things, those other guys are putting up points, but aside from SK who happens to be on a team with some pretty awesome players aren't winning the cup any time soon. I'm happy with developing what we have and getting some quality players for Plekanec to return to form with. What we got in return in those deals...another story.

I mostly agree, I think Habs fans tend to overrate these guys but the asset management was definitely poor.

Grabovski is a scum, he's done nothing lately but when he plays the Habs he suddenly tries harder. I don't miss him, I just wish he wasn't basically given away. The Kostitsyns aren't superstars and Sergei is arrogant but there was no reason to throw them away.
