Player Discussion Dale Weise

[Runner77]

Weise has a knack of emulating the look or facial expressions of certain Habs greats without having to deliver on their performances.

I thought Lucic was supposed to kill him?

 

[Jack Skellington]

Habs were not willing to give him what Philly gave him a few years ago. Because after the trade, Habs were interested in bringing Weise back as a UFA that summer, but they weren't ready to offer what he was asking for.

So instead of giving him 4 x $2.35M, Habs get him for 1.5 x $2.35M. If he doesn't end up getting traded before his contract is up again.

Also dumping Shleprock in the process and apparently Folin is serviceable

Stop it. I'm fairly drunk tonight and a parent.....and that made me shed a little tear!

I’m not sure what happened to him when he left here and I can see most Flyer fans are happy he is gone, but he is only 30, he played very well for us, and he seems to be exactly what you need to play on the fourth line. I’m hopeful he can be that guy I remember when he is brought up.

 

[Runner77]

Looks can be deceiving all right.

Here are 4 pics from Weise's childhood where you'll see him sporting Habs apparel from a young age.

Pics from the feature on 24ch :

No reason Weezer cant replace D-Lo who is playing like what got him booted from Buffalo.

Dont need much but D-lo is producing worse than most AHL face punchers would.

And Dale loved MTL and brought energy so i welcome him back with open arms

He wasn't doing much in Vancouver when he got here the first time either. The 4th line needs a makeover, and he could be a good fit there. Still need a 4C.

 

[Vachon23]

If he can be close to what we was here, it will be a heck of a move

According to most Flyers fans, Weise was useless except for the rare instances when he turned on the intensity. If we're lucky, that means he was simply unmotivated just like he was in Vancouver. If his problems in Philly were mental, returning to Montreal might flip his gears back to the same physical, clutch player we saw five years ago.

Yeah but hes 30 now. Does he keep Himself in the same physical condition as he used to be?

No idea. But at least he hasn't skipped chin-day at the gym.

 

[justafan22]

Agostino was waived

 

[Cacaniemi]

Bold prediction: he will play on the second power play unit before the end of the season

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

anyone dissing Weise is being put on the ignore list

Weise's got a weak chin

Agreed completely, and worth a shot considering what was given up.
