Shea Weber:

1 year, $7.5 million awarded via arbitration

Not good for Nashville. :\

It's only not good if David Poile can't get him signed to a long-term extension by season's end. Weber is at least getting paid like an elite defenseman this year, so good for him.

 

[wEEman33]

Yes, Weber could certainly afford to enter all the local Game Galaxy tournaments with his new salary upgrade.

they'll need someone to fill that two-sport athlete quota if JFord ever leaves town... wait, wrong sport LOL

That's also the largest one-year arbitration deal awarded in the history of the league, beating John LeClair's 2000 contract and Scott Niedermayer's contract from 2004, both worth 7m a year

I wouldn't be against trading Shea Weber at this point.

Nashville is loaded with blue line talent in their development system.

Granted, you don't replace a team captain and Norris trophy finalist overnight, but I think what the Predators need more than anything is a consistent offense, because the defense and goaltending have never been an issue in Nashville.

It's always "can they score goals?"

The sad thing is that Shea Weber had the 3rd-highest point total of any Predator last season with 48 points from the blue line.

The team lead in scoring was a tie between wingers Martin Erat and Sergei Kostitsyn, who both had 50 points.

So, for those of you who don't know, the Russian team Lokomotiv Yaroslavl's plane crashed today, killing all of their roster but one who's in critical condition. There were some NHL vets on that team, including a favorite of mine, Pavol Demitra.

I don't know what's going on with hockey deaths this summer. I just hope this is the last of it for a while.
