Didn't say that at all, was pointing out that hes not as big of an ******* as you guys seem to think he is, especially when people are saying he is a dick off the ice as well.

You can boo him all you want for your own reasons, but Subban is one of Nashvilles best players, a Norris finalist if I'm not mistaken. Personally I would boo him to try and throw him off his game, he will see lots of minutes and him not playing his best will help us. Not cause he threw a couple dirty hits throughout his career. So no his agitator antics is not the only he gets boo'd.

Who criticized PK Subban the person? He gets booed and criticized for his antics on the ice. Same as basically every other agitator, skilled or not, who gets booed by opposing teams' fans.

I don't even know what to make of the second paragraph. Maybe review it and try again. $:-\$

Meh I've seen worse... Morrissey's cross check to Staal's neck comes to mind

Yes... What another player did surely excuses Subban's dirty plays.

Good idea. I?m sure there will be lots of interest. But I prefer my living room as well, especially for an away game.

I don't care enough to review my previous post, the gist is that he also gets boo'd for being a top talent not just because he's an agitator.

Not what I was implying but ok...

Whiteout Street Parties are just for home games.

Norris trophy candidate... I've heard more than once "How can a guy be in the top 3 D in the leauge when he isn't in the top 3 D on his team?" which makes me chuckle...

He is easy to boo. That's all. He attracts attention with his actions on the ice, and fans have the right to choose their way of reacting. If he is given a pass on being boo'ed because the fans are dressed in white and he is black, then that is sad.

Others may have seen this ........ a sign is still flashing the news of the upcoming, (snicker, snicker) April 20th game on Portage Avenue.
Just before Maryland as I was travelling East this morning, I saw the info of the game & of Donald street being closed & that an alternate route should be used
........ cannot get over that this sign has probably been flashing this info since April 20th.

Laine, who reportedly had left the 2 previous practises early, was not involved on the ice today in practise, apparently ......... Malaise

Armia, in a non contact jersey today, may still be a battler for Friday's game. Hope that occurs, as I would prefer him in over Hendricks.
Toby E. again was supposedly paired with Buff. Chiarot looks to be odd man out, as Morrow is with Myers.

the time off was I'm sure great for many of the aches & strategizing. Jets will be firing hot & trying to make the Preds look normal, I have no doubt.
