Unfortunately for Shea Weber, Subban has an emotionally attached fan base (myself included).I’m actually saying this. I love Shea and I think the hate he gets is unwarranted because he’s been nothing short of excellent since he’s been here. People would love him if the Habs acquired him for anyone other than PK.
Weber has been exactly what I expected. He’s still a good, perfectly competent top pairing D. However, His qualities are rather overrated, thanks to an outdated outlook on the game. I believe the way things have played out solidify this opinion.
He’s just not an exceptional D, especially in this era. That’s what we lost.
Add in 76’s off ice contributions, the way he appealed to non-traditional demographics, and there you have it.
