#Habs Tinordi will play as Weber comes out.

We knew Tinordi was going to play today but is was unknown who was going to come out. It will be Weber who has been paired with Andrei Markov. We'll have to see if Tinordi plays with Markov or if someone else is moved up.

Weber and Kaberle are rotating in on right side of Bouillon on #Habs third D pair.

Weber has been out with a knee injury and has only played in two games this season. The last was on March 7th, but he only played 7:35 and was back in the dressing room. It sounds like Weber will play over Kaberle tomorrow.

“Last year when it came to the playoffs, I mostly ended up playing as a forward and think it went well. I showed what I can do, and I’ll try to again if I get the chance,” promised Weber who notched two goals for the Habs during the team’s first-round series against the Bruins.

Weber could be switched to forward permanently without a home on the blue line. Last season the Swiss skater scored a goal and 11 points over 41 games with the Habs. Don't expect too much from Weber unless he finds PP time or a role on a scoring line.
