TORONTO — Shea Weber's passion still burns bright. Instead of lacing up his skates and trying to help his team make a playoff push, the former defenceman and captain of the Montreal Canadiens has been polishing a speech.
Instead of lacing up his skates and trying to help his team make a playoff push, the former defenceman and captain of the Montreal Canadiens has been polishing a speech.
Weber, who helped Canada win gold at the 2010 and 2014 Olympics, was on the golf course in June when he got his call to the hall. The Russian centre with silky-smooth hands was a four-time Lady Byng Trophy winner as the NHL's most gentlemanly player and took home the Selke Trophy as top defensive forward on three occasions.
Roenick, who finished with the second-highest goal total among American-born players in NHL history, played at two Olympics, winning silver in 2002. Darwitz, 41, represented the U.S. at the 2002, 2006 and 2010 Games, winning two silver medals and a bronze. The forward out of St. Paul, Minn., also represented her country at eight world championships, topping the podium in 2005, 2008 and 2009.
