  two thumbs up to your comment Errant
• Comment on Subban's stock falling with each Habs win
  Its all about trying to find a contract that will keep Subban happy as well as allow the Canadiens to continue building the core of the team. Too much money coupled with missed expectations and the team as well as Subban risk a Gomez type end to his tenure here, and more years of mediocrity as we fill the roster with Darches and Pyatts because we have no cap room left. I will be disappointed if he ends up traded, but I will also be disappointed if we end up over-paying. Tough situations like this take time to settle.
• Comment on How (and when) will the P.K. Subban Saga end?
  Sure, I would agree with well done, thoughts are laid out and ideas are discussed; its not like looking at grade 9 homework. That being said any article that puts Subban in the realm of Shea Weber has got to be flawed somewhere along the line. Is it due to cherry picking stats used, a flaw in the stat collection, who knows. I work with stats for a living and I can make them sing and dance and do all sorts of wonderful things, ultimately though reality needs to enter the algorithm.

  Apart from the article, go look through the threads if you care enough.

  Several of the EOTP people believe he is equivalent to Shea Weber based on stats and they actually said it with a straight face. Somewhere I can just imagine PK reading this s#*t and going hell yeah, give me another million. You can almost feel that attitude from the interview. My belief is that good players are fairly common and can be found on weak teams, while great players make those around better, put the other team in fear, and are rarely found on weak teams. In my mind that is the difference between Weber and Subban.

  Although we have no real idea what he is asking for, I would imagine he is asking for enough to make this thing a difficult transaction.

  I would imagine there are all sorts of players who have given home town discounts across the league, ever wonder why a veteran or an established player comes out of a negotiation and people go "boy did the GM ever get lucky" FYI gm probably did not get lucky, player was nice about it. I doubt anyone would advertise this as the player would get in trouble with the union brotherhood and the agent would lose face.
