And make no doubt about it, those two would have done exceptionally well together.

Weber was the 14th defenseman taken that draft year, and 9 other teams passed over him after Calgary drafted Ramholt, including Tampa who drafted defenseman Matt Smaby and San Jose who took defenseman Matt Carle.
Weber just wasn't as good a prospect in anyone's book as his future development says he should have been.
