News emerged this week that Montreal Canadiens’ captain Shea Weber is severely banged up and would potentially miss the entirety of next season. Some speculated that Weber may consider retiring as his injuries would not allow to play with the intensity and grittiness we are all used to seeing from the man mountain.

Weber has been a pillar on the back end for the Canadiens for five years after being acquired from the Nashville Predators. After the departure of Max Pacioretty, Weber was named captain of the Canadiens and has been a true leader on and off the ice.  Over the years, Weber has shown Canadiens’ fans his booming shot and heavy defensive play.

With the future of Weber unknown beyond next season, let’s take a look back at Weber’s top 5 goals as a Montreal Canadien.

#5 First as a Hab

Soon after bein acquired from Nashville, Weber didn’t take long to introduce his signature shot to the Bell Centre faithful. In his first home game as a Canadien, Weber assumes his shooting position at the left point on the power play and unloads a rocket. A goal that Weber himself and fans alike will never forget.
