Just throwing this out there but Weise was a .75ppg player in the AHL maybe he was forced into a role he didn't like in Vancouver? He and Torts both commented on that when he was traded.
He already leads the Habs in primary assists/60m, last five games he's been feeding Pacioretty mere effectively than Desharnais has.
Guy has got speed and hands and size that may be what the apparently inseparable Max&DD duo needs, so why do so many posters keep insisting Weise should be nothing more than a 4th line grinder?
Trust me on this Weise is an adequate plug for now nothing more.
I stand by my claim in the preseason roster thread that we currently have 3 top 6 caliber forwards on this team Plecky Chucky and Max. We have an incredible amount of depth in our bottom 6 but that won't win Stanley Cups. Perhaps we can elevate one of these players to a Top 6 position but not two or three. The Vanek affair showed us that by adding even one quality offensive threat the team becomes transformed because of a better balanced lineup. We need to get our hands on a Semin or someone similar who is an above average playmaker and can take up a permanent residence (RW) on the top 6.
The risk is great but we've got to do something IMHO.
