Lane is awesome, but PK at his peak was just magic. He had skill and personality – You’ll never convince me trading him was a good idea. Never.



I am not posting to debate the trade, it's been done over and over, just posting this as an appreciation for what made PK so special.

    The Marchand hit will never be forgotten!

  2. Lakers0001

    He was a real G. Gave it all on the ice. I was heartbroken when he was traded.

  3. nriopel

    Kinda awesome the bromance he ahd with Markov and Price. Never seen Markov smile so much.

  4. fliegende_Scheisse

    He loved MTL, and MTL loved him.

    I mean – we can’t negate the impact Webby had on the team either. PK was definitely electric, and I think management did him dirty for sure. But he DID get us a Man Mountain.

    PK will always be one of my favourite players of all time. He was so dynamic. His fire on the ice was a blast to watch every night. Sucks he cooled off with his injuries and set backs cause he was unreal in the Bleu Blanc et Rouge.

    Trading him was a good idea

    No need to convince you even if you’re wrong. Weber was the epitome of leadership. Prior to the trade the locker room was broken.

  9. astonedgecko

    Why does Lane need to be involved here lol

  10. chicken_nugget000

    Honest question cause I didn’t really watch him in Nashville/NJ but what caused him to get “bad” so quickly?

  11. highgames420

    What a time to be a habs fan! But this clip is missing some of that Pierre Houde et le buuuuuut!

  12. LeftyTele

    Damn you’re right. I was surprised that he retire so young. I was also shocked when I learned in an interview at “La poche bleu” that he retired cause he had no offer from any team in the league at 32 years old. I know he was not at his prime anymore but still can’t believe no team wanted him.

  13. Low-Dimension-320

    Comparison is the thief of joy… p.k,weber and Hutson are all special players that impact the game jn unique ways. We are lucky to have had all 3 on our team.

  14. I will always have a soft spot for subban. Broke my heart that he got traded away. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sleep)

    PK danced so guys like Makar and Hughes could run.

    Also he had a better shot than any of them

    😢 I loved that guy. He’s my favourite Hab since I started watching in 92.

    I was devastated when I heard about the trade. So devastated that I thought it was a joke on hockey buzz cause it happened minutes after the Hall for Larson trade.

    I was in denial 😂

    Weber was a great player but Subban was Subban.

  17. hunglikejesus_

    Suzuki isn’t who he is today without Weber.

    For that reason alone it was worth trading him 

  18. Moresopheus

    Probably did him a favour in those years so he could try to win a cup somewhere competitive.

  19. I was heartbroken when we traded him. Though I came to understand how good of a trade that was and to love Weber. No regrets. But I do miss Subban.

    I hope he commentates for Habs sports for decades. I would love to hear from him rather than old washed up “pros” on RDS, the wanabe pros on TVA, the Leafs fans on TSN and SportsNet. There’s a couple remaining good habs analyst and commentators. Too many pretenders.

    Subban would be fun to listen to and more in tune with the current NHL.

  20. PK was my favorite player then and it felt like trading Roy all over again, but the result was much less desastrous.

  21. TrickyScene238

    Love him and love what he did for the Habs and Montreal as a city. He was proud to be there and it was so evident!

  22. canadianbroncos

    The breakaway goal out the box is one of my favorite moment ever.

    The way the crowd gets up and starts screaming before he even gets the pass to the explosion when he scores.

    So damn hype

  23. alldasmoke__

    I’ll die on the hill that we should’ve never made the PK-Weber trade. Yea whatever about your culture arguments, PK just wasn’t in the right team/era at the right time.

  24. You admit in comparing a kid to a guy “at his peak”….lets compare when both are “at their peak”
