Despite promising not to, P.K. Subban couldn’t resist taking a few shots at Canadiens’ management and coaching staff at Monday night’s final Just For Laughs gala.
“I’ve got some jokes and I’ve been working with some writers,” the former Canadien said during a Monday morning news conference about the P.K. Subban All-Star Comedy Gala at Place des Arts as he sported a limited-edition Just For Laughs “Subban” hockey jersey. “But if you’re expecting me to bash my (former) teammates or the management, it’s not going to happen.”
But once the flamboyant defenceman hit the stage in front of a rapturous crowd, it seems he couldn’t quite help himself. Among other jabs on the night, Subban dedicated a couple of cheeky country and western songs: Take This Job and Shove It was aimed at general manager Marc Bergevin and Good Luck with That was sent to his former teammates trying to win the Stanley Cup under head coach Michel Therrien’s system.
