#6 Shea Weber of the Nashville Predators Defense, 6’4”, 233 lbs Born: August 14, 1985 in Sicamous, BC. Shoots: Right Experience: 8 years in the NHL, drafted by Nashville in 2003. Assets: Has both the size and mean streak to keep skilled players honest. Excels in one-on-one situations, as he literally overpowers opponents. Can unleash a big-time point shot to score a fair amount of goals and log a lot of ice time. Has the ability to drop the gloves and is a born leader. Flaws: Must curb his propensity to run around the defensive zone in search of the big hit from time to time. Also, he can go overboard in terms of his physicality from time to time and take a bad penalty for a questionable hit. Is still a little inconsistent in terms of playing the shutdown role. Career Potential: Elite all-round defenseman with a big point shot and leadership skills.
