What if Marc Bergevin traded Shea Weber?
Shea Weber is on the sidelines right now to heal some war wounds. In fact, if Jonathan Drouin and the rumors about Weber are any indication, he is currently unofficially retired.
That said, Marc-Antoine Godin revealed a little something about Weber via his reader's mail. If he were in Marc Bergevin's shoes, Godin would trade Shea Weber. What's that? The captain is not coming back, Mr. Godin?
It's worth noting that Shea Weber has good value, despite his unofficial retirement, as he has excellent book value. You know, for a franchise like the Arizona Coyotes who want to hit the salary floor, that's perfect!
But, his $6 million annual salary would hardly go down the throat, especially since they would want to use his cap hit of $7.85 million in salary to reach the NHL minimum.
I'll take this opportunity to remind you that the Nashville Predators are praying that Weber doesn't announce his retirement since they'll be stuck with a big salary penalty.
