MONTREAL — The Montreal Canadiens’ demoralizing season went from bad to worse on Thursday. The Canadiens announced veteran defenceman Shea Weber will miss the rest of the season as he undergoes surgery for a torn tendon in his left foot. Later in the day, they announced that Goaltender Carey Price will also be sidelined indefinitely with a concussion. Julien said Weber played through the pain until he had to come out of the lineup. Julien said keeping Weber in the lineup did not aggravate the injury and denied the team had mismanaged their star defenceman.
