Shea Weber continues to do what he does best.

The Montreal Canadiens defenseman fired an absolute cannon past New York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss with under three minutes left in regulation to give his new club a 3-2 victory on Wednesday.

The goal was his third of the season and - with an assist on Phillip Danault's third-period goal - gives him nine points on the season, just one shy of Toronto Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews for the league lead.
