Perhaps you can find just ONE example of what you're talking about?

Because to me, it seems like everyone else can't keep his name out of their mouths

He has constantly brought up things like "I still don't know why I was traded" and just in general acting bitter about the trade. If he had just made comments such as "I guess the Habs felt it was time to move on, so I will too" when asked about the trade then this media circus surrounding him would not be happening. I have a feeling he will be gloating a lot about it if the Preds win the cup, he's just that kind of person.

Pretty amazing how much PK Subban just being himself, bothers so many people in hockey.

You always got people trying to change him

Wonder why...

Evander Kane beat to his own drummer in Winnipeg, and the Winnipeg social media jumped on him. Only difference is PK is a great person and Evander Kane is trash.

Hockey frowns on anyone have a personality or being anything else but a robot.

Which is why Hockey always has a problem marketing the game and drawing in casual viewers. Leading those hardcore Hockey marks to become envious of other sports.

Hal Gill played with Subban 5 years ago.

PK has mature a lot since.


At that time he was a trash talker and made some dirty plays. (slewfoot)

He has change a lot since.

His PIM are way down.

People ask him questions and he answers.

Hal Gill is a PK fan. He even "defended" him when Milbury made those ridiculous comments:

I get these posts are just to bait stupid pointless hate discussions. I have no issue with unorthodox player behaviour. I just don't like over the top childish dramatics on the ice so he always bothered me. Probably my most disliked player.

Aside from that he's still a great hockey player and I'd be happy to have him on the team I cheer for. I'd still hate his dramatics though, just calm down and shut your face Subban lol

Canadian media is the worst media ever.

It's funny how they worship grit-based personalities like Chris Neil, but hate on flashy-based personalities like Subban/Hall.

I feel like I'm living in crazy land. I don't find anything wrong with Subban on or off the ice. I don't get it.

Anything to defend the trade from Montréal's point of view, trying to make it look like they had to do it. No, They did not.

Was a compliment in the end. He saw this young kid just coming into the NHL willing to talk the talk, and in the end he realised Subban can walk the walk too.

Because he's shamelessly arrogant and self promoting?

He comes across like he probably is. So overly impressed with himself that it's probably real hard to take as a teammate. Finds himself a whole lot more interesting and entertaining than he is. A real whole lot more.

Wonder why so many people feel compelled to question the motives of anyone who doesn't think PK is so wonderful? LOL

I'll answer that. Smug self righteousness, fake moral superiority and virtue signaling.

Hmm...The interview seemed positive about Subban's attitude. Some people here are jumping the gun a bit.
