Admittedly, it didn't take partner Ben Chiarot long to become a Weber fan in his first season with Montreal.
"Playing against him, you know he's a good player. He's talked about as a good leader, but playing with him, seeing the kind of guy he is around the rink and with other people, you know he's a pretty impressive guy," praised Chiarot. "I think that's the biggest reason why he's so respected around the League."
Going about their business alongside one another works especially well, according to Chiarot, because their playing styles naturally mesh.
"We play a similar style defensively. We're pretty good at killing plays and getting it going the other way, so we don't spend a whole lot of time in our own end," explained Chiarot, who has also garnered plenty of attention for logging huge minutes of his own in recent weeks. "He's also got great offensive instincts. With him creating the offense, we just form a pretty good pairing in our own end - and he can bring his shot and playmaking in the offensive end."
