Shea Weber joined the Montreal Canadiens in the summer of 2016 in a blockbuster trade that brought his booming shot and steady leadership to the Habs’ blue line. He scored his first goal with the club on October 20, 2016, blasting home a power-play one-timer against the Arizona Coyotes—a rocket that stood as the game-winner in a 5–2 victory at the Bell Centre. Weber went on to anchor the defense and serve as captain, earning respect league-wide for his toughness, presence, and one of the most feared shots in the game.
