Hailing from North Vancouver, BC, Weal hopes to make plans with a number of the Habs' British Columbia contingent in the offseason, but given where he lives in relation to them, he'll likely be working out on his own and will meet up with the guys just to catch up and have fun.
"I have my own thing here on the North Shore and a little bit in Burnaby too. But there are guys up in Kelowna, Gally [Brendan Gallagher] is out in Tsawwassen. It's pretty far; it's actually like an hour and a half," shared Weal, the Los Angeles Kings' third-round pick (70th overall) in 2010. "I'm sure I'm going to see most of those guys in the summer here. If it's not training, then maybe it's just hanging out and enjoying each other's company."
Weal plans on taking a step back from hockey to reset and recharge. When he does resume working out, however, he won't be making any big changes to his offseason regimen.
"When you get to past five years pro, you know what your body needs to be ready for the season and get off on the right foot," explained Weal, who owns 54 points (24G, 30A) in 169 games with the Kings, Flyers, Coyotes, and Canadiens. "It's just a matter of sticking to what's working fine and adding a couple of new things here and there that can help improve your strength or your speed and quickness. It's just finding that balance that's going to put you in the best situation to perform."
