Weegar has proven himself to be an elite two-way defenseman in the NHL, with puck-moving skills, Weegar will elevate teammates' play easily, as proven in 2020-2021 when he pushed Gustav Forsling's production to triple.
If this turns out to be true, the Flames lost two-star players, to regain high-producing offense and defense, in Weegar and Huberdeau.
Weegar is a player any team should be after, and I'm not sure Bill Zito made the smart move, with this play.
Quickly after he was acquired, on August 5th, it was reported he had to desire to sign long-term in Calgary.
