Yannick Weber returns to Montreal for another season. His biggest asset is the booming shot from the point, which has landed him some power play minutes (four goals on the man advantage in 2011-12), but, he can be a liability on defense. He's in a similar situation as fellow Habs' defender Tomas Kaberle -- some offensive gifts but prone to misplays in the back end. With a lacklustre offense, the Canadiens can not afford to give full time minutes to guys like Weber, who will battle for one of the final three defenseman spots with Kaberle, Francis Bouillon and Raphael Diaz. His experience playing wing will be an asset when head coach Michel Therrien makes out the roster that breaks camp. (Updated 8/14/12)
