The Canadiens traded a younger, better defenseman for a player on the decline, but can smart deployment give the Habs an overall edge?
Ten years from now, we may look at the P.K. Subban - Shea Weber trade in the same light the Chris Chelios - Denis Savard trade of the early 1990s.
It's a grim assessment, but what's done is done. So given what we know about Weber's style of play and the facts surrounding his on-ice production, what can Montreal's coaching staff do to get the most of this useful, but imperfect player?
