This is heartbreaking.
You earned a lot of respect from me not just from his envolvement in the community as well as putting with these stupid people hating that he played for team canada just because the colour of skin and that's what you can love about him especially his personality and being good leader as personal for a team he should be a captain.
Already just from this first part I've gained a whole lot of respect for Subban, even as a mere Coyotes fan, I feel bad for Montreal.
I feel bad too. Subban was the heart and soul of the Canadiens and a great player to watch. It will be weird to watch him wear yellow instead of the tricolore jersey. I hope he gets a standing ovation the day he comes back to the Bell Centre.
im going to try to get tickets for that game
+Proton1 I feel bad for P.K. he didn't deserve this
yeah but i feel like it's a slap to the face of P.K. because he was the icon of the Canadiens, except for Price, but he always gave his best on the ice and made the games exciting. He was a fan-favorite and played in his favorite team growing up. I think he didn't deserve to be traded because he was one of the major faces of our franchise from the last 20 years. In the end I wish him the best for his future in Nashville and I hope he makes Bergevin and Therrien feel bad!
Another overrated Montréal Canadians player. He is a defensive liability, that is why he was traded. We all saw what happened without Cary Price there to bail them out. Montréal fans think every player on their team is an all star
I'm a flyers fan and when I saw this it kind of made me sad. Not just the Habs, but Montreal was losing a dedicated player and citizen
Go embarrass your dead owner some more.
Leaside 4 Don't act like it was just a one off incident. The Flyers fanbase are a trashy bunch, and game 3 proved it. The organization hasn't grown out of their "Broadstreet Bullies" mentality. And that's why they've been perpetual losers since '76.
The day this trade happened it hurt me inside and now let's go Nashville
subban was one of my favourite players. I remember going to see my very first habs game and he scored a hat trick that game. I remember standing outside the Bulls locker room waiting for him to come out so I could get his auto graph. subban has always someone I look up too since he started his rookie year in Belleville. although I hated the Bulls. he was Mt favorite, P.k will be the player that gets cheered when he touches the puck in the Bell Centre, I hope that at the end of his career Montreal retires his number and put his name and number in the sky
+Ree Tom he can win a cup by himself? I didn't know that
+Leaside 4 Bellville bulls
+Leaside 4 belleville bulls, the subban brothers OHL team
I went to school with Alex Shappiro, we was and still is such and important part to our school and community. I had no idea about his affiliation with PK.
subban was our franchise player. he's amazing, I loved him, last season wasn't a bad season just for him. the entrie team. but subban still played well. it's too bad that he's gone but it's business. hopefully weber will put up high numbers.
Price is there buddy, without him they can't make the playoffs.
+Ghetto Ugandan that's very true. but hopefully Price doesn't get hurt again. Price with the habs is like Ronaldo to Portugal. Without Ronaldo, Portugal doesn't win the Euros. without price. No Stanley Cup, which is upsetting. hopefully the young guys we have in the system cause show up when Price is older and ready to retire
+Zack Ashby but, Portugal..... Just won the euros without Ronaldo......
+AdeenDominatesGaming he miss what, 3 quarters of the last game?
as much as Subban was to Montreal I think Price is your heart and soul...PK played and Price was hurt and look at the season. with a Healthy Price and a beast mode Weber be a pretty hard team to play against/score on. Before.. teams had to stop there offence PK...Pac...Gall..in the defense zone teams had to think on how to beat Price...This year yes teams need to shutdown the offence but for the first time in a long time teams need to not only think on how to beat Price but they need to get around Weber first. Good traded for both teams. PK is going to Nashville were Nashville will be "HIS" team which will be good for him and Nashville. For Montreal its Price's team and the window to win a cup with Price is closing but if I was a Team or even Price for that matter I would want a Weber type D for hard...long playoff minutes Weber is the man! On that note glad Weber is out east now I think the west can handle PK pretty good. Out east now teams get to handle beast mode Weber and what he is all about! Enjoy Weber Montreal won't take long for you Fans to fall in love with him...he's a heart and soul guy too! with leadership that can't be tought.
This will haunt Montreal forever.
LOL no it won't, PK will be a decent memory in a couple of years
Nice denial you got there :---D
Kebabscout
Who are you talking to?..
I wish Subban was a Leaf
Lots of respect for him. He'd be a good Leaf because of a Canadian team. Hell I want him back in Canada, I don't care what team.
i couldn't agree more. Toronto desperately needs a strong defenceman like him
Why would you want to ruin his career?!
Leaside 4 lmao!!! Hey!!!
I can't stand the habs, but trading subban for weber is like trading a honda civic with 300,000 kms for a porsche 911. Worst trade I have ever seen.
not a Habs fan but as of right now weber is better then subban
true habs robed nashville
+Batflip 09 I don't think so. weber being older. I'm thinking he's the 300k car and subban the porsche
That's the stupidest analogy I've seen. Which one of the player do you think sucks? Both are top tier dmen in the league. The only reason why this is a "bad" contract is because of what's gonna happen in 5-6 years when Weber is too old. Which is also not really an issue because MTL can just dump the contract to a team like Coyotes (if they are still around) who struggles to meet the cap floor.
Go check out Weber's defensive numbers. He might produce nicely on offense, but his shot suppression and possession metrics are dogshit. P.K. is good at both.
It is such disgusting BS that people will turn a $10M charitable donation into something ridiculous instead of thanking the man for what he just contributed. How many athletes in Canada do the same thing? I'll be hard pressed to think of one active athlete in Canada that has donated that much to any charitable donation especially something as pure as for the benefit of a children's hospital.
My brother whose a habs fan, got a stomach ache when he saw this trade
gonna miss him so much
"Luxury toys for men" in the background lmao
As a Pens fan, I have a lot of respect for PK. He always seemed like a great guy. May success always find him wherever he plays.
Xeohelios1004 now your team is facing him for the Stanley cup
"People should wanna' help people." We need more of that in the South; couldn't be happier to have this guy in Smashville!
Sucks for P.K. that Pacioretty now has Weber to help with settling the room and, most important, should the blame. Horrible decision making that guy captain.
*shoulder the blame
+Fakename70 what's wrong with patches
+CantYandleTheHeat
As important and symbolic as the captaincy is in hockey - probably more than any other sport - if you're a Habs fan, are you REALLY comfortable with and inspired by that guy as your fearless leader?
I couldn't agree more, not a good captain
+Fakename70 heard it as a rumor not sure if it's true but do really want to blame this on him and not the coach (low key forgot his name)
I have so much respect for P.K.
mad respect for pk. class act and top 5 dman in the world
This is a terrific interview; this guy is for real. No team trades their top defenseman, especially when he's also their most popular player and a huge draw both at the gate and in sales of team paraphernalia (50%).
It don't matter what they got for him really, the issue is why. If there are issues in the club house, you work things out; it's nothing new.
It all started when the Habs chose Max Pacioretti for captain. Pacioretti is not captain material, never will be. PK knows that, we all know that but yet they persisted. It was a slap in the face to PK and it went downhill from there. Therrien threw him under the bus later last year and that was it; a "Down goes Frazier" moment.
Therrien will be gone by January and Pacioretti will be traded in March 2017. You've been warned. ;)
......correction, by the March 2017 trading deadline.
As a Bruin's fan we have to hate the Canadien's, as they have to hate the Bruins. And when we played PK we hated him as Montreal fans will always hate Chara or Marchand. But one thing I think is true for most fans from most teams was a great respect for PK off the ice. Seems like a pretty classy guy and a gentleman. I wish him well.
These questions are terrible. Luckily P.K. turned them around and made interesting answers.
This is such a terrible time. I'm going to miss watching him play with a Habs sweater.
I'll always be a fan of pk, no matter what team he is.
Class act, I wish him well in Nashville but I hate to see him go.
PK is an awesome guy
#GoBruins 💯
still cant believe they would do this. smh... tbh this was the most absurd trade even for the immediate future. pk is a superstar and has a potential for being greater.
pk should be with montreal for the rest of his career for what hes done on and off the ice.
Bye Subban😩 good luck in Nashville Subby! MTL will miss you!
As a Leafs fan, I have to admit this is tragic for the Habs. This is the worst trade for the worst contract potentially in NHL history. Yikes.
We love you Subby ... We will miss you ...
I hate the Habs because I'm a Rangers fan but I can not hate subban. He's seems like a class act player and is a leader on and off the ice. The pretty sick that the media wrote he donated money to try to get captaincy or put a "no trade clause" on himself
He donated 10 million dollars to Montreal children Hospital
I'm a Torontonian , leafs fan through and through but even I felt kinda bummed out that he got traded. I always envisioned him finishing his career in Montreal , he seemed like a franchise guy that a team should build around. Either way, he's still a great guy and Nashville got a great player.
just wow SUBBAN fan for life
Im a Preds fan and super glad to have him. But my heart breaks for you fans in Montreal. You all had your hearts ripped out. Ur gm and owner and anyone else who wanted pk out is a scumbag. Any team would be lucky to have this awesome guy on and off the ice, but im glad Smashville got him. We welcome any transferring Habs fans who want to jump on board.
It was paccioretty even players on the habs say that max and pk hated each other and one of them was gonna go
APPARENTLY YOU HAVE NOT HEARD ALL THE REASONS why THEY TRADED HIM.
those reasons are not valid.
i want to cry
great player great person still came up short last year when Carey went down too many 1 goal losses Nashville is a great fit excited to see if Carey can stay healthy this year who knows Preds Habs finals...
subban played with stamkos in his youth hockey years
Doesn't Stamkos look like Gretzky did as a kid?
yes! I noticed that from the childhood photos they showed! :)
I think he also played with Tavares, too, when they were lads, no? I know them two are close off the ice. I might've even read a couple years ago that Chris Tanev completed that foursome. But, ive seen no proof of that.
+Fakename70 stamkos look like brett hull go see for yourself
+lamrod83
In your opinion. Looks more like Gretzky in that photo of him with Gordie.
I like PK as a player & person, from a fan perspective.....but I could see how his personality would wear on teammates.
4:40 empty glass :(( awe
Since i can remember my father always hated the canadiens because of the Roy trade, it kinda break his heart at the time and i can totally relate. I will forever hate the organization of the Montreal Canadiens, even if weber scores 20 goal and get 50 assist, this team is dead to me and i mean it.
What it he gets traded back that would be weird but AWSOME and kinda funny!
I'm a Bruins fan and I'm gonna miss PK
4:01 "My mentality is: I've never been the guy that always has to be the center of attention or has to be the front guy..." As he says that, there is a book on the shelf behind him titled "Luxury Toys for Men"
Your point?
Why would someone need "luxury toys", especially a whole book about it, if not because he/she likes to get attention? Someone who doesn't care for attention doesn't indulge in that kind of stuff.
T0rche Wow. That's a reach.
I still can't believe he's been traded....
Weber is going to thrive in a different system than what Nashville plays now. Subban is going to thrive in Nashville. The chuckleheads on SiriusXM NHL act like Subban got traded for a bag of pucks..... I'm a Preds season ticket holder. You'll love Shea Weber. I'm a fan of this trade, because it really fills a need for both teams. Give it some time, Habs fans.
wait wait, u were right until "Give it some time, Habs fans." Weber will only be good for like 4 more years lol. what time? lol XD I agree with most of everything else. Subban might not fit on the team, though, he fits in with the city of Montreal and the fans. that's why habs fans such as myself are very upset.
Weber will thrive in a defensive, slower, more boring brand of hockey. So yes. He'll thrive under Therrien.
"Mtl. will always be home" .
I'm a Red Wings fan and I feel sad for Subban he's a good player he's funny and my favourite Habs Player.. :( I mean Shea Weber good but Subban 😭😭😭
reminds me of patrick roy coach didnt like him so they traded him to colorado roy went on to win 2 cups
You will be sorely missed PK. This trade was a disaster to hockey as a whole.
He can always bring back the Cup back to Mtl, but on a Preds jersey lol
That would be just sad and hard for Habs fans to handle
Same that as what kessel did
yes people he even received criticism from his haters here in mtl when he donated 10M. And u know what bergevin decided to do the same night? announce that pacio becomes the capitain. im not saying subban should have been cap or whatever cus the players voted. but to decide to accounce it that day theres no way ur not doing it on purpuse. played a whole season without a cap and he couldnt wait 2 more days. slap to subbans face imo
I love PK so much. But he is the darkest white person I have ever seen...
2:27 is that Stamkos ??
Yea they played hockey together growing up.
+David McCalla and John Tavares played with them as well. imagine those 3 together!
There is an art to donating.
I'm sure many people gained from PK's donation, however the media brouhaha surrounding it did PK few favours.
Pk we will always love you, please come back when your contract expired your an habs for life and we love ypu to death :,-(
As a leafs fan I feel sad for Pk and I'm also going to miss Pk with the Habs TBH. This was a sad video to watch
how can someone be so mature in all his interviews and be that imature in the lockeroom? i have some doubts. i think it was exagerated and there are players u dont get along...that can happen with everyone.
anyone think it's under the table, cause well nashville was in alot of heat considering money wise, so Pk could bring popularity and alot of money back to nashville. I legit just read a magazine and there was a whole 4 pages dedicated to only Pk. well that's what I think at least.....
PK will build Nashville around him
good luck pk
Poor PK. I hope you'll be happy with the preds. Bergevin and Therrien are morons! Love PK. He's a great athlete and a great person. We kept this lazy captain Pacioretty but we traded a guy that gave is 100% at each game!
Pure class, and one of the best hockey players I've seen in my lifetime. So tired of crappy Therrien and Bergevin... They tore this team apart...Most pathetic management since Tremblay and Houle. Nashvile you will love P.K. He's a rock. Mange d'la marde Therrien. Crisse de vieux debile.
Did he play minor hockey with Steven Stamkos?
Yes
Good, so my eyes didn't trick me.
P.K.'s great when he covers the basics and play it calm while still intense, and this interview is great, but when the games are too much or in the after game interviews, he's a hothead, he takes penalties, he makes stupid plays or makes comments very unpleasant to teammates. The dream in Mtl was that he would grow a bit, become a leader but he was sort of the same manchild on the ice at 27, and that's where Weber will greatly improve the Habs.
if Subban got the C, he would probs act more mature, knowing his actions have an even bigger impact. him not getting treated right by the coaching staff didn't help at all with his childlike behavior.
This dose not seem right to mean you just can't have PK subban on another team then the Habs just kinda ruins hockey a little bit dose not feel right at all.
PK PK PK PK PK PK PK PK, saying all the positives things about montreal no matter what.
It will be interesting to see if he gets booed in the Bell Centre now.
won't happen in out lifetime, he will get cheers
+Peace *our
never #habs fan
No. He didn't sell out like Kevin Durant. When they call his name during line-up announcing, it's going to be a standing ovation just like Saku Koivu.
I cant see it. Habs fans are quick to boo anyone and everyone. At the same time I dont think they could do it to PK, they love the guy. I predict a standing ovation. Coming from a leafs fan as well lol.
I thought his dad was a leafs fan?
they came to montreal first and his dad became habs and big beliveaus fan then they moved to toronto.
he wanted to be in montreal they took his dream away
Gionta, Bourque, Briere, Vanek, Tinordi, Sekac, a whole bunch of prospects, Tokarski, Budaj(meh, only had 1 or maybe 2 good years left in him), ruined Condon, ruined prospects, Gorges, Subban, Eller, what next? Price, Galchenyuk, Gallagher, Pacioretty.....that's all we have left. Beaulieu soon will be good. so we can trade him then. we can just tell Plekanec to go to Czech and Markov to the khl because we don't need them. lets make sure Bergevin and Therrian stay for a long time tho.
tokarski was a legend in the 2014 season my goodness. He made so many good saves its ridiculous they dont have this guy in their starting lineup. Bergevin better not f things up more than they are.
+Pablo Rodriguez tokarski got traded last season I believe. That's why he isn't in their starting line up. Honestly backup goalies that get chucked into the nhl too fast always get ruined. They need to be gradually brought in
+davfernape Yeah I agree. Tokarski was one helluva good keeper.
+adamJcarter Briere when he played was a stud, even till his retirement season! Vanek is a beast for the wild and Gorges brought more to the locker room then his play but he still stood up for teammates, Eller and Bourque were still young and actually beasts in playoffs. I mean, it was a team that had a really good chance to win the cup if Carey didn't get injured. I understand, sometimes moves to be made. But SOOO many were complete garbage moves. Trading for fourth liners and poor player management was just frustrating. And most of these players didn't even reach max potential.
Please come back and retire as a Hab PK
Pretty sure he has no interest in retiring in this garbage organization who did everything to get him out of MTL before July 1st.
This ^
This sure should help with that massively over-inflated ego. Why does everybody act like P.K is better than Weber? Weber is twice the defender that Subban is. Weber doesn't turn the puck over by trying to skate trough the entire team, like Subban does. While also managing to put up the same amount of points last year as Subban, not to mention 14 more goals. Weber has scored 15+ goals 9 times, Subban has done it once, and has scored 20+ goals 3 times, which Subban has yet to do. Weber has put up 8 40+ point seasons and 3 50+ point seasons over the last 10 years. Subban has only broken the 40 point mark 3 times in the last 6 years. By the age of 27, Subban's current age, Weber had; scored 15+ goals 5 times (Along with one magnificent 23 goal season), broke the 40 point mark 5 times, and the 50 point mark once. By any and all standards Weber is empirically the better player. Nashville have, in one move, increased the likelihood of shorthanded breakaways happening against them and severely weakened their defensive ability.
webber played 78 games had a -7 rating 51 points
subban played 68 games + 4 rating 51 points
webber had rinne and went to the second round of the playoffs in a game 7 against the sharks and he was a no show
subban did not have price for the whole season and did all he could to bring that team into the playoffs he had to setup everybody so they could score
and webber does not need to carry the puck that often since he had a bunch of talent around him
subban was the only talent in montreal and has been to two conference finals
with webber he did not need to make the big plays at all time
subban when the game was on the line we all knew he would be the one making the play
and you seem to forget that PK had 38 points in 42 games in the short season so how about that
and you clearly know nothing since subban has had over 50 points the last 3 season
and the year he won the norris he had 38 points in 42 games how bout that
Lol
weber = top 15 dman in the nhl
subban = top 5 dman in the nhl
horrible trade for montreal..
i feel bad for habs fans
As of right now, Weber is better, that's why he's always picked to play for Canada, and not show pony irresponsible PK
AntiMainstreamMusic
Grow up you immature stupid kid.
AntiMainstreamMusic
LMFAO!! you're one pathetic and weird kid
adamJcarter Keep up all the vegan and animal right pictures. Fun stuff.
AntiMainstreamMusic
lol! oh don't worry I will, and you can continue to look at them, have fun weirdo :)
who disliked this video!
Even badder than Patrick roy
Its against habs religion to hang a black players jersey in the rafters.
If they hated black players so much they wouldn't have overpaid him two years ago
If they hated black players, they wouldn't have drafted pk, wouldn't have traded for smith-pelly, wouldn't have given bouillon a job for the last two years of his career when he couldn't have made any other squad, and wouldn't have drafted Jeremiah Addison u ignorant race baiter
Eric Engels takes himself way too seriously
