Maybe I should frame the discussion a little bit different. I'll do it with questions and people can provide the answers.
Would you prefer to see PK selling merchandise wearing a Habs sweater instead of a generic, non-Habs sweater?
Ties in with....
Would you prefer PK to say "it's not his job to score goals" or would it be better to say that scoring goals is in his job description to be paid $9 million?
You know, perception issues that cause RDS and Marinaro to talk negatively about PK and his sense of self.
Interesting you bring up perception....because that's precisely the problem with people and how THEY perceive Subban
Here's a perfect example
https://youtu.be/OwrnVhlocRI
Watch this video, read the title of the video and go read the comments
Now look at this example
https://youtu.be/b4Ohv5-uht8
One video, Subban is accused of spitting on another player, which never even happened, they even had to interview the player he allegedly spit for him to comment on something that never happened
But look at the 2nd link I provided...Bernier ACTUALLY spits on someone and in the title of the video it's "accidentally spits on ref"
Bernier is given the benefit of the doubt, in fact, read the comments....everyone finds it hilarious, Sportsnet even has an article with how hilarious this is.
Tell me there's no double standard here, tell me perception isn't influenced here....
Truth is, people perceive Subban a certain way, for many reason, many of which they don't even realize and/or understand...so it taints the way they see anything he does.
In your example...its him shooting a commercial.
You should ask yourself why you perceive anything he does negatively
