Weight played eight full seasons and part of another one with the Oilers, serving as their captain from 1999-2001. It was as an Oiler that he earned his reputation as a premiere playmaker, playing on some mediocre teams that never had a chance at the playoffs, yet scoring a personal-best 104 points during the troubled 1995-96 season. Weight left the team in July 2001, when he was traded to the Blues (with [[Michel Riesen]] for forwards [[Marty Reasoner]] and [[Jochen Hecht]] and defenceman [[Jan Horacek]].
 
Weight spent the next three seasons with the Blues before returning to the DEL, due to the [[2004 NHL Lockout]], to play in the final stages of the [[2004-05 Deutsche Eishockey Liga season|2004–05]] season with the [[Frankfurt Lions]]. Upon the resumption of the NHL in the [[2005-06 NHL season|2005–06]] season, Weight returned to the Blues before he was traded after waiving a no-trade clause, along with the rights to Erkki Rajamaki, to the [[Carolina Hurricanes]] for [[Jesse Boulerice]], [[Mike Zigomanis]], the rights to Magnus Kahnberg and draft picks on January 30, 2006.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/05/sports/inside-the-nhl-hurricanes-get-jump-on-trading-deadline.html|title=INSIDE THE N.H.L.; Hurricanes Get Jump On Trading Deadline|last=Diamos|first=Jason|date=2006-02-05|work=The New York Times|access-date=2020-01-30|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331|archive-date=August 6, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220806145711/https://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/05/sports/inside-the-nhl-hurricanes-get-jump-on-trading-deadline.html|url-status=live}}</ref>
