He'll score goals, but he'll never lead your team to a championship...

Too soon to say. People said the same of Shanahan apparently in the 90s.


Still, sports would be pretty boring if it all boiled down to was "HE'S GOOD SO I LIKE HIM"


That sounded stupid, and probably is.

People hate on PK because he has a personnality. Shouldn't be a problem to hate on a player because he's a blank slate...

... who also happens to be a wolvagin.

First of all "people" (frank)ing love P.K.

The only ones having a problem with him seems to be Habs management and some/most/all of his teamates.

Why the (frank) should we care if a guy is boring or entertaining during interviews, that's not his job, his job is to score god damn goals and he's god damn good at it.

Shanahan and Pacciowussy are such similar players in style. So similar.

I love how you have a problem with a guy scoring around 35 goals per year because he somehow isn't "tough enough" for ya.

never should have made him captain. but he's a great player to have.

Perhaps. But then again it was the players decision wasn't it?

Summer is not a great time for hockey. That’s a factinion. Even with the NHL trying to drum up some interest and more importantly “dollars” with the “World Cup,” the summer is genuinely slow. It’s so excrementally slow that we have to be tortured with the slogging “Will she, won’t she” romance of Jimmy freaking Vesey for months on end. A saga so boring and filled with superfluous drivel that I wonder if it isn’t some sort of grand conspiracy that thousands of writers that have seen him play perhaps 3 games (since nobody cares about the ECAC which happens to be the weakest NCAA division of the Big Four) are planning to raise him to be some kind of Mayan-esque Snake God that will devour the souls of the unwillingly tortured unwashed masses of fan bases linked to the insignificant phenomenon of hype. All this coverage, much like this paragraph is completely UnVeseyssary

I don't like him.

He's a good player, probably in the top 5 snipers in the league.

But I (frank)ing hate when he gets hit in the corner, holds his arm and almost keeps from crying going back to the bench, and 2 minutes later OMG HE'S BACK SO WOLVERINE.

And I just don't like what he represents in this whole blank slate organization, moreso since they've traded Subban.

Never said any of this was objective. Part of the fun
