Ok I know this will come out as a controversial thread, but I have to do it.
Against NewYork, one of the best d-man in the world:
-Couldn't skate with mobility
-Was skating as less as possible
-Was targeted in the legs
-Kept the puck for short amounts of time
-Played a stay-at-home type of game
To me, he was in pain every time his left foot touched the ice when skating, which he tried to avoid as much as possible. His new 'style' was made to reduce his movement, not to be efficient.
The guy takes a lot of crap when playing, and we can argue he isn't made of steel.
Blocked shots, slashings, TOI... an injury had to happen.
But, he played despite the pain. So another reason the admire him, he's inspiring.
My proof? Watch some games for a 2nd time and focus on his left foot.
It's was obvious to me since the first games of the series we just lost, Subban's left foot couldn't do it anymore.
Injuries killed us once again.
