Montreal Canadien defenseman P.K. Subban is a Cam Newton fan

Are hockey and football similar?  Not to me, but Steve Levy does well in bringing up some similarities between Newton and Subban (Subban being an African-American (African-Canadian?) playing in the NHL).

Gonna have to forgive Subban for that whole Cowgirls thing... just gonna have to count on the fact that his being a fan of Newton, maybe one day he'll see the light.

Was just gonna post this after seeing it in the rotation of videos in the Moose link you posted... I think the comparison of being a black NHL player and a black QB is interesting. Don't care for hockey and only know of Subban because my family (Boston Bruins fans) all hate him, but it was interesting hearing him talk.

His parents are from the Caribbean so not sure he'd be "African-..." anything at all...

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
