PK Subban making record $10 million donation to Montreal's Children's Hospital

[Miggs]

How was Subban not picked for captain ????

Best player,only hab to win olympic gold and win a major award....most beloved by the fans,most honorable and charitable away from the rink...

Blatant snub...

Edit: His teammates are racist

Wish athletes would donate their money to improve the "inner city" 10 million would go much further.


Not the biggest fan of donating to "cancer research" and hospitals that already get support.

Good gesture by him though.

It's to help children and their families.

If a child gets sick many times family has to take time of work travel hundred of miles stay at hotels etc.

Thus helps alot

Families are getting free stay at hotels and free travel with this 10 mill? Or is it going into some imaginary funnel. Serious question.

Not dissing the gesture, I just hope it's actually going to something pushing forward. Id rather see better schools and school facilities being built but that's me.

nah I don't know how the money is going to be allocated but I know at the hospital I work with we don't even bill for pediatric wards, while in other areas of the hospital those rooms are 240/260 a night, so we lose a whole bunch of money right there and we are already underfunded. Hospitals in canada are publicly funded and private donations are needed alot.

The public school system in canada is great for the most part, pk subban fater was a principal in a inner city school

Carey Price won the olympic gold as a starting goaltender for canada in Sochi, last year.

Both him and PK won it, together.

But yeah, its lame to not see the C on Subban chest. He was easily the perfect choice. I bet David Desharnais and Tomas Plekanec ()votes tipped the tide in favor of Pacioretty

yeah he's one of those old-timers it's hard to hate.

watched some CBC mini-series/TV-movie about his life. production wise it was cool for what it was but still interesting to watch.

it's crazy to think that Don Cherry today is actually a mellowed down version.
