“The only breath of fresh air P.K. Subban brought was when he left for Nashville” – Stéphane Waite
Sarah JonesEven though he’s retired from field hockey, P.K. Subban continues to attract attention. The former Canadiens defenseman has always loved that attention, and in 2024, he’s even more so in the media.
Canadiens fans loved this P.K., and when he left for Nashville, it was a sad departure. Danick Martineau is one of those who loved Subban. I’ll include myself in that, too.
If he was loved externally, that’s a little less the case internally. On 98.5 Sports a few days ago, Stéphane Waite and Pierre Gervais gave their opinions on the flamboyant defenseman.
And it’s not necessarily positive…
Eight years later, the P.K. Subban trade still stirs up a lot of emotions!
Catch up on a lively debate between Danick Martineau, Stéphane Waite and Pierre Gervais during Ça sent la coupe.

During the Ça sent la coupe segment , Martineau confessed his immense love for the right-hander. The young comedian said he was a breath of fresh air. That’s where Waite came in. The former goalkeeping coach had this to say:
The only breath of fresh air he brought was when he left for Nashville. – Stéphane Waite.
Yikes… He wasn’t in his good graces, anyway.
This statement got a good laugh in the studio. Pierre Gervais, about whom we’ve learned a lot in recent years through his books, doesn’t officially second Waite’s claims, but “he’s not far off”. Gervais added that, after two or three months, the other players in the dressing room were no longer capable of handling Subban.
It’s also worth remembering that the Torontonian caused quite a stir when he forgot fans who just wanted a photo with their hero. David St-Germain, a former employee of the organization, shared this information on the Stanley 25 podcast.
