not sure why it was a big deal then when Drouin said about Weber that "everyone knows he's retired"...
- Pat1993

some are sleeping on the job on that one no?
what's the deal with Weber? is he retiring or not?

you want to remain on LTIR and get paid? move your ass to Mtl, meet doctors, train, rehab, work... in order to come back to play. we'll pay you your salary no problem.
you prefer to stay home and watch tv?? waiting to retire? sorry I'm not paying for that!
either you retire or you move to Mtl with the team.

and I guess when Hughes explained that if Weber wasn't talking to the media as much recently it was for insurance reasons, and that he was worried he'd say the wrong thing, that was also bullpoop?
- Pat1993

yes. a giant load of bullpoop.

I get the feeling you might not be 100% aware of every exact detail for these contractual situations, but ok, cool

yup, he said Weber’s situation is very complex and involves insurance issues at which he is not at liberty to discuss...

Hughes reminded us (once again) that a return to the game, for Weber, is very very uncertain. Obviously, he can not announce anything officially, for reasons of insurance and NHL rules, but his words spoke volumes.

As for Weber's silence this season, and the captain's constant refusal to speak to the media (and the fans), GM Kent Hughes said that Weber is not yet comfortable speaking out on the matter himself.

Basically, Shea Weber is afraid of "getting into trouble" by answering media questions and revealing information that he shouldn't.

He doesn't want to have to watch what he says. The organization has asked him, a few times, and he has always said, "no, I don't want to give interviews or press briefings."

like I was saying , someone is sleeping on the job.
Weber decides what he wants to do, Price decides when he'll play...

well, my guess is the insurance companies or the league won't intervene as long as the player himself doesn't officially sign or confirm anything about his retirement situation.
