Problem is, if he bonks in the next two years... he could be in trouble. Habs must like their prospect depth at D to be holding out like this.


That or his demands are actually crazy and they're worlds apart.

What a silly thing to say. How could Benn and Subban be considered comparables in any sense of the word? They both play hockey?

Isn't Subban represented by the same agent(or agency) as Doughty ?

Yeah .... this could drag on.

I wonder if the Habs are being cheap or Subban is being greedy. I know he wants a long-term deal and Habs want a short term but they're not even close on $$$.

I was listening to 690 (the new sports station in Montreal) while picking my kid up after his exam. They were talking about how the Habs have all the parts for a successful team:

A true #1 goalie: Price ... check
A "horse" on defense: Subban ... check
A PP QB: Markov ... check

They went on from there. Something about size down the middle (Galchenyuk and Pacioretty), a power forwards in Cole, then how they would have a core with which they could compete for the Cup for years to come.

Umm, Cole is not a power forward anymore, not like before, and not fore very much longer. Markov has played fewer than 30 games in the last two calendar years, I think. His next injury may be his last, and not in the good way. Subban a horse? I think if you asked him he'd say "I'm a stallion!" but that really wouldn't mean that much.

At least they were not gushing like they did last year, how Subban was going to score 20-25 goals ("... and I really think I am being conservative").

Oh man... we should go back to those "I would take Subban over Karlsson any day" threads and troll like a boss.

Via Louis Jean:

"Speculation was today's meeting between #Canadiens & Subban's agent would yield new offer. Not the case. 1/2"

"Source suggest both sides will take weekend to re-assess position. 2/2"

Still far apart I guess...

Subban can't afford to miss much more time and if the Habs keep winning at a decent clip he has absolutely no leverage. He's getting some bad advice and if it's more a Subban thing than a Meahan thing then he's an absolute moron.

You can't build a team around a player like that.

My guess is something happens next week. One way or another.

More importantly why is Evander Kane being mentioned in this thread? #racist Sarcasm

Via Renaud:

"No progress in talks for PK Subban contract. Offer from MTL is still the same since May: 2,3 million dollars this season and 2,9 in 2013-14."

https://twitter.com/RenLavoieRDS/status/295168979088072705

So, Habs are sticking to a 2-year/$5.2M deal. PK's team wants a 5-year deal in the range of Benn money. This ain't getting resolved anytime soon methinks, unless he's moved or offer-sheeted and the Habs match.

Renaud updates his English tweet... he had the #'s wrong:

"French Renaud had it right. Canadiens offer to PK Subban, 2.2 million first year, 2.9 for next season."

https://twitter.com/RenLavoieRDS/status/295181894469955584

So 2-year/$5.1M offer. That is crazy low ball.

Since Philly is really hurting on the D.. would they be stupid enough to offer sheet Subban at about 5-6M a season for 7 yrs? Then would Mtl match that?

Heh. They should offer sheet them just to mess with their cap situation long term. I'm sure they'd match anything. But you never know...
