Montreal Canadiens defenseman Shea Weber will be sidelined for six months after undergoing foot surgery Tuesday.
The veteran defenseman has been out for more than three months, with his last appearance coming Dec. 16. Last month, the club elected to shut down Weber for the remainder of the season.
The recovery time frame could see Weber ready to return for next year's training camp.
In his second season with the Canadiens, Weber tallied 16 points in 26 games.
The 32-year-old is signed through the 2025-26 campaign.
