The day after the tribute that the Canadian and its supporters paid to P. K. Subban, our panelists wondered: what should we remember from this recognition? What legacy does the defender leave behind and what is his place in the club’s history?
Journalists Richard Labbé and Simon-Olivier Lorange, from The Press, discuss it with Jeremy Filosa and Stéphane Waite, from 98.5 FM. We also look back on the Habs’ most recent victory, on the exploits of Cole Caufield and on the happy streak of Jonathan Drouin.

I think the Canadian had the best with [Shea] Weber because anyway, when Weber was in the Stanley Cup final with the Canadiens, P. K. Subban had been traded a second time, for almost nothing, to go to the Devils where he lived a quite a sad end to his career.

Carey Price has been the top or top two or top three goaltenders in the National League for several years. [Andrei] Markov was a very good defender, but I don’t think he was in the top five defenders in the National League at any time in his career.

All the young people are tripping on [Cale] Makar because he is spectacular and offensive, but if you give me the choice tomorrow morning, I have no doubt, it’s me [Roman] Joey. He is the most complete defender in the National League.
