P.K. Subban lashes out on the Maple Leafs and Sheldon Keefe
P.K. Subban lashed out on the Toronto Maple Leafs and their head coach Sheldon Keefe on the Pat McAfee Show.
Subban, who never hesitates to speak his mind on the hot topics around the NHL, is once again causing a stir, for his comments about the Toronto Maple Leafs.
According to him, the Leafs should be able to win without William Nylander, and Sheldon Keefe didn't handle the situation with the media very well.
Here's his full declaration:
"If Nylander's not in for Game 3, I want to hear what Sheldon Keefe's gonna say about it. If he's gonna miss three games and he played Game 82, what's the explanation? It's nuts."
"It's a bit of a gong show in Toronto, with the media and the coach. I don't think [Keefe] handles the media correctly I don't think he handles it well. I grew up in Toronto I've got respect for the organization So, when it comes to managing the media, there's gotta be more respect for the fan base."
"You're talking to people that are educated about the game. We're not idiots. You gotta be able to handle that.....Let's just say something was ailing him, why are you playing in that last game? And then, what the hell happened between Game 82 and Game 1?"
"The Toronto Maple Leafs, there's no excuses. I ain't giving 'em any excuses. You still got Tavares, Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner,» he said. «You say you're Stanley Cup contenders. You should be able to beat the Boston Bruins in the first round without Nylander." Check out his intervention in the video below:
His statement generated a lot of reactions on X:
