P.K. Subban Deserves Your Love
Maybe you don’t know a ton about the Nashville Predators. That’s OK! It’s understandable. They don’t have a ton of history, and they certainly don’t get picked for a lot of national broadcasts.

P.K. Subban Benched, Blamed For Canadiens Loss
The Canadiens have sunk like a stone, going from a historically good first month of the season to well out of the playoff picture, and with Carey Price reportedly likely done for the year with an MCL injury, there’s no reason to think they’re going to turn things around. So it’s about that time of y...

P.K. Subban Doesn't Really Care How French Speakers Pronounce His Name
There’s now a little bit of fuss—just un petit peu—over how broadcasters should pronounce Canadiens star P.K. Subban’s first initials. Should a French-language station, airing to mostly Francophone viewers, pronounce the name of an Anglophone player the way they would, or the way he would?...
