It's like people don't remember or choose to forget how great Subban has performed on the PK when used in that role.
Sure he improved as an overall player, not saying otherwise. Just that they're talking as if they're doing something innovative by putting him on the PK, as if they're taking a chance with it but they believe in him, when the guy was a really good player there 3 years ago already and they just decided to take him away from it...
He'll get a friggin' Norris next year.
Dear god no! HF couldn't survive without the excuse Subban only got a Norris in a half season.
Price is to the Vezina as Drew Doughty is to the Norris. Well deserving player who's had some really solid seasons but there's been other players with better numbers on any given year.Plus, it's time Price gets some Vezina consideration.

Exactly. Couldn't someone just show JJ and MT videos of PK playing on the PK? Maybe some stats? Analytics? I don't know why it's taken two years for them to figure this out.

He's had to earn everything with this management group this is just one more thing.
With the league's new diving rules, the coaching staff has already adjusted our strategy and compensate for the lesser PP time with more PK time.
And that's why this is a good management group. When you have to earn something you appreciate it a lot more than when it's handed to you on a silver platter.
No.
Maybe a better way to put it would be to say that Subban had to re-earn everything with them.
He played on the PK 3 years ago and we had a top unit in the league. Why should he "earn" the right to play on the PK now? Nonsense.
It's bad management to not properly recognize the value of your assets.
At 9M, I'd only hope that he'd be given more important roles...
If it was up to me, Subban would be on the first line of both types of special units (PP and PK)...
... and he would play on the first line, too on RW.
