Actually a lot has been said in the past about him wanting to move on, and how he has been disappointed in Nashville not bringing in any all-stars. People have been reporting that he's wanted out. I doubt he'll still be in Nashville by the time the 2013 season starts

someone that wants out doesn't risk being locked up with the team for 14 years..

He stated he was fed up.
He also said he doesn't want to be part of a rebuild.

So the Preds have a year to prove to him they want to win. If they struggle to make the playoffs I wouldn't be surprised to see Weber ask for a trade come one year, two max.

Weber wanted to stay in Nashville AND get paid. This is perfect for him.

This, but I do guess people are disappointed right now. Anyways, we shall see. I think it makes zero sense for Nashville to trade him, considering how expensive he is in his first year.

from what I've read they even let him keep the C.

Lots of people with what sounds to be like inside knowledge on what Weber's intentions were.

he only took the 14 year offer becasue of the new CBA that wants t omkae max years 5 on a contract
in a year hes just going to request a trade n have 13 years to spend on a team he wants to play for

He can't be traded until July 24th 2013.

My birthday

and yeah, I know they have to keep him for a year, which was my point. They have to pay a shit ton, so why trade him when he only gets "cheaper"

cuz he wants out and requests a trade

why does he want out? He wouldn't have signed a lifetime contract if he wanted out.
