When the blockbuster trade was made last summer that saw P.K. Subban leave Montreal for Nashville in exchange for the Predators’ Shea Weber, nobody was really sure at the time which team got the better of the deal.
Time will ultimately tell. But on the eve of the Stanley Cup Finals, the Predators are very happy with the 28-year-old Subban, who has fit in with the rest of Nashville’s talented defense corps and has been one of the leaders in the Predators’ march to the finals.
Predators coach Peter Laviolette encouraged Subban to play to his strengths.
