    Montreal Canadiens center Alex Galchenyuk is grateful All-Star defenseman Shea Weber is on his side now.

    Galchenyuk is looking forward to seeing Weber dish out his tough brand of defense for Montreal this season after the Canadiens acquired him in a trade with the Nashville Predators for P.K. Subban on June 29.

    "We don't play [the Predators] that often, it was only twice a year, but I remember last year he hit me close to the boards and I couldn't feel my legs for like three days," Galchenyuk said at a charity appearance Saturday. "And when he's teeing up for a slap shot, you don't want to be in that lane to block a shot."
