Weber suffered a dislocated kneecap in the Preds' first-round series against the Blackhawks and will require 4-to-6 weeks of recovery time.
Weber, who missed the final four games of the series, has already undergone a procedure to address the issue and should be back to full health by midsummer. The blueliner saw his point total dip from 56 the season prior to 45 in 2014-15, but even with that minor regression, he still finished as one of the league's top-scoring defensemen. He'll turn 30 in August and probably still has a few more years left at the tail end of his prime.
