We haven't seen Montreal Canadiens' captain Shea Weber since losing to the Tampa Bay Lightning in game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. Shea Weber has believed to be "retired" because of injuries but he won't officially retire until the end of his contract.
However, Brenden Kelly if the Montreal Gazette, who previously claimed Carey Price owed everyone an explanation is at it again. This time calling out Shea Weber after the Montreal Canadiens took their annual team photos yesterday and Shea Weber wasn't in the team pictures.
It's astonishing Weber never thought it was worth his while to explain to his fans what was going on with his injuries and his career.
But I'm officially calling him out on his behaviour this season. This is the exact opposite of leadership. Leaders don't hide. Leaders come out and explain themselves even if it's not the easiest thing to do.
Weber has instead shown contempt for his fans by refusing to speak to them and Habs management has missed a fantastic opportunity to be transparent and open with those same fans.
He's on long-term injured reserve, which means that he still gets paid and the team doesn't have to include his US$7.8-million cap hit. In other words, it's a dream scenario for both parties. The only losers are the fans who are left out in the cold.
