First of all he's close to being poison in the locker room.
He's acting like a drama queen by not even training with his teammates.
He hasn't yet posted the numbers and he's acting like if he just single-handily got the team to the Stanley cup finals.
If I was Marc Bergevin I'd sign him then work a deal with the leafs in exchange for a first round pick. He'd probably eat the puck so much in T.O that he'd make the team miss the playoffs for an eight year in a row and since we would be left with nothing on the blue line that we would be just as bad but with two top 10 picks in the next draft.

Agreed, man we as habs fans love the drama that we ourselves can create...pk is here.to stay. trading him would be chelios 2.0
What numbers!?
Drew Doughty - 316 GP - 43 G / 119 A / 162 PTS - 247 PIM
PK Subban - 160 GP - 21 G / 55 A / 76 PTS - 245 PIM
Not too shabby for a 23 year old who plays, and plays well in all three situations. Hey, maybe Tambellini can get his head out of his ass for a minute and turn him into an Oiler tomorrow. We'd gladly have him in Edmonton.
Never seen the numbers like that. PK is literally scoring at the same pace as Doughty. Very impressive. If only he was white, people would probably give him more slack. There, I said it.

I agree and I have wanted to say it more than once on these boards. Some people give him a hard time and I really cant figure out why sometimes...
A very sad state of affairs, if racism is still out there, the way you mentioned...If you ever wanted be truly disgusted, check out the comments on YouTube about him. It's also a great reminder that extreme racial hatred is alive and well. Even the low level stuff is appalling like those articles about his goal celebrations being too outlandish.

I disagree with the racial card. Other black players in the league don't get the same flack.
It's 3 things imo. First he's a Hab. How many Hab players actually get praised outside of Habs fans circles. And even then most players here get bashed by Habs fans themselves. Second he's flamboyant, well spoken and has a very confident, outgoing personality, something that is contrary to the stereotype hockey player and comes across as cockiness or being full of himself.(the mind-numbing tweets by hockey players during the lockout reinforced this notion, they aren't exactly brainiacs and are prone to childish emotions like jealousy). Third, he yaps a lot on the ice and gets caught up in after the whistle stuff a lot, which in my opinion, is something he needs to work on.
Overall, I think signing him is an absolute no-brainer. He's incredibly talented and still really young and his game is going to improve and refine quite a bit still. I personally am thrilled to have him on the team I cheer for. I think he has it in him to become one of the greats this organization has had. And that's saying quite a bit, because we've had some of the all-time best.
Great post, but I don't see how you could think race doesn't play a factor at all.. I mean Wayne Simmonds had a banana thrown at him for god's sake.
Yeah maybe I'm just being naive, or a part of me wishes that people would have their heads out of their ***** in 2013. I just don't think (and certainly hope) it has as much to do with it as those other factors. About Simmonds, was that in North America?

rumours on twitter?People are getting tired of subban because some story the heard in the news or rumors on twitter... makes a lot of sens
The whole he wants Doughty money stuff, which just seems to high at this point...his agent is one of the high end guys and those guys always seem to get the best of the Habs GM's.....salary etc.
Doesn't he train in Toronto with that specific trainer who he swears by (forgot his name, the one from the videos with Gerry Dee)?
Maybe that's why he's there, couple more workouts. I realize that he's skating and probably not doing deadlifts ATM, but you never know. I have no problem with him being there until the contract is signed, but when it is...yeah...get your ass to MTL.
You guys think we'll see a PK-Markov pairing or Emelin-Markov? (PP aside.)
