An excerpt from the Hamilton Spectator article by Scott Radley:
More than two hours after the players had first hit the ice for an uptempo practice -- and long after many had already bolted for the restful sanctity of the dressing room -- he's still out there. Not just standing around idly shooting.
Catching the eye of a couple teammates on the bench, he grabs a puck and with an inexplicable burst of energy starts dipsy doodling through his legs and around an imaginary opponent for 15 or 20 seconds before finally depositing a shot just under the crossbar. Then, as if he'd just scored the Stanley Cup-winning goal in overtime of Game 7, he starts an over-the-top celebration punctuated by a smile so big you wonder if his entire head might disappear into his mouth.
Welcome to the life of P.K. Subban. Hockey player. Character. Happiest man on the planet.
"Even if you beat him into the ground and he's dying, he'd always have a smile," says Hamilton Bulldogs head coach Guy Boucher about his rookie defenceman.
