PK and Price doing the triple low 5 one last time off the ice was just perfection
I teared up a bit 😅
Made me so mad when management made them stop doing it, what were they thinking
I hate the Habs and you're absolutely correct.
I'm not even a HABS fan but somebody is cutting damn onions right now! 😢
just WOW
Not even a habs fan but the triple low five almost made me cry. Truly is the end of an era in Montréal
I cannot believe it. Time flies. These guys are only in their 30s and their career is already over.
Roar of the crowd is what got me crying. Brought my right back to moments of my younger years cheering for those guys. Fond memories
Not gonna lie I got misty. LOL
im not crying, YOURE CRYING!
sissy
The triple low 5 between Price and Subban came full circle…end of an era for 2 Habs legends!
I wouldn't call Price a legend, he was bad but better than Halak for sure.
@@kr1me2000 bad?!?!? Made it to the finals, basically carried a okay team. Has won every award minus a Stanley Cup, again with a meh team. You my friend need you head checked!
@@kr1me2000 Bruh the dude was probably the best goalie of the 2010's lmao, or at least tied with lundqvist
@@19coyote5oh9 He is the main reason Montreal couldn't win that year, also he is the main reason they missed playoff for YEARS and did poorly.
@@prodICYN Nah dude, good goalies are able to carry teams to a stanley cup, look at Patrick Roy, Martin Brodeur, M-A Fleury.... they had bad teams and still won the cup.
Regardless of how you feel about him on the ice, he put his money where his mouth is. He donated over $10 million dollars to the Montreal Children's Hospital and bought them a bunch of equipment. The city of Montreal will always respect him for that, it means much more than Hockey to many families.
his parents raised him well
Pledged. Probably still paying it off. :)
@@Flashback_Jack How much did you donate?
His foundation pledged to raise $10M over 7 years. Last I checked, they were way behind. Still a good gesture, but he didn't donate anything as far as we can tell.
@@cjlb49 "donating" doesn't just mean literally donating money. He's donated tons of time, which is sometimes even more important
The Triple Low 5 with Carey Price at the end was Epic!!! They did it one more time for the haters! Haha
Wasn't for the haters
honestly the only hater was the old fashion coach at the time. The fans certainly didn't mind overall. Respecting tradition and being as boring/bland as possible but "professional" is all too common in hockey.
I'm sorry, but you look at the Canadian players, they looked bored to death with this and like, "let's get this over with" Just look at their expressions the whole time.
@@trvman1 i mean, like none of them played with him so they're not personally attached to them, theyre also not going to be jumping around laughing and cheering when they're about to play a game they need to keep their focus on the game lol
Yes, showing some class and respect is too much to ask of people today. Athletes or not. If it's not about "ME". I could care less. That's pretty much what was shown here.
What he's done for this city has been amazing. He's family here in Montreal.
thats not what you guys were saying when ya traded him.
@@matthewbarry7026 stop acting like the fans traded him
Ya, just because the management made a bad call doesn’t mean we wanted him off the team
@@matthewbarry7026 lmao bum
@@matthewbarry7026 he could give anonymously without seeking praise instead he seeks praise for exagerrated salary anyway most overrated on ice ever
As a Sens fan, I always hated Subban as a player, but there's no doubt as a human there's not many classier people than Subban. What a true gentlemen and a very unselfish being. Congrats PK on your retirement!
Why did you hate him?
@@beckobert Think of it like this, Im a habs fan and I hate Marchand, because of rivalry and because Marchand is really good, my habs lost a lot because of Marchand 🤣
@@beckobert he maliciously slashed Mark Stone after the whistle and sens lost the playoff series. He got one game for being a POS. He should've been gone as long as stone.
@@AKmumu no, you hate Marchand because he's a dirty player
@@AKmumu I'd advise you to have a higher threshold for hating somebody.
1:52 that’s my son, seeing this brought back lots of memories. I remember everything being so hard seeing him made me so happy. Thank you PK
I hope his medical issues were taken care of and he's healthy and happy today!
Much love Claudio
Those are beautiful words Claudio. Hope that your son and your family are doing well
Claudio both you and your son are warriors! I hope conditions have improved! Also happy to hear meeting PK made things better, hats off to the man!
Beautiful god bless
Bruins fan here saying this is truly amazing. I always liked P.K. and his style of play. His foundation is helping a lot of children and their families, which is truly awesome! God bless you P.K. and God bless the children!
Ken, I always felt the Boston Bruins and the City of Boston and Bruins fans have a lot of class. I thank you for your comments. With our Habs struggling right now..... I am rooting for the Big Bad Bruins to win the Stanley Cup. And for the record....in my book...."Bad" means good !!! Very good !!! :>)) GO BRUINS
Habs fan for life wishing you Ken a great year. The Bruins are amazing.
Great respectful rivalry
Love your profile picture. God bless!
@@ginakay2529 Most of us have class, I would like to believe. I met a nice gentleman and his wife, both Montréal fans some years ago at a Bruins game in Boston. They were very nice people. Shocked them when the Canadien anthem started to play and I sung the entire anthem en français. A little bit of respect for each other, goes a long way. Lol, back in 1993, I actually rooted for Montréal to win Le Coupe Stanley!J'étudie actuellement le français en ligne.
Even as a Leafs fan, this is amazing. PK was one of my fav players growing up and seeing his return and what he's done for MTL cannot be replicated.
What does you being a fan of the laughs have to do with anything?...doesn't matter what team you root for...gotta love when 🤡's do that...
@@usmanbarak2615 oh youre so tough over the safety of a screen huh?...I wish you'd call me that to my face cuz I'd literally put you in the 🏥 you little b____.
what he has done to Montreal? being toxic in the dressing room and act like solo hero? you do understand why they -dumped- traded him right? the same reason with Nashville
@@christianstokes4111 dude, your Habs suck ass, it's time you stop living in the past and face facts the Canadians are going no where and maybe get your head out of your ass and take notice there was fans of the Oilers, Bruins, Flyers, and on, and on saying the same thing as this guy but the only reason you say something to this guy is because it's a Leaf fan. You sound like such a salty b*tch 😂😂Keep tanking, there's no Matthews or Marner type players in the draft that will help save the sinking ship that is the dysfunctional Habs.
@@christianstokes4111basement boyy😂😂😂
Man, Carey and PK doing one last low high fives hit me so hard. 10 years ago I remember them doing that after every victory and now here they are doing it at PK's retirement tribute. This was a perfect way to close the chapter on his career, you'll always be a hab.
the end with carey almost made me cry wtf
Me too...an I always hated em...lol...gettin soft in my old age lol...love , peace and respect to , Subban and, Price. Ex Laffs fan...ex nhl..pro sports in general...lol ... we need to prepare for whats comin.
😂 yup
As a leaf fan thank you Montreal for giving this man a good farewell!
Such a class act guy. I met PK when he was playing for the Hamilton bulldogs, I was just a kid, skating with the flag at the start of the game. he was the only player on the team that acknowledged me, and had a convo with. Great guy, makes me happy to see his success.
Leafs fan here, watching PK play in Montreal was an absolute honour. The amount of respect I have for him, as a man, for not bailing on the city that bailed on him is inspiring. Much love PK!
The city didn’t bail on him, the GM of the team did
I mean it is fair to say that the hardcore Montreal Canadiens fans have a reputation of being either with you or against you, love their players or hate their players, some of which even PK Subban wasn't immune to. However it isn't fair to say the city bailed on him... For the vast majority of fans and even non-hockey fans, just straight up citizens, they know what he has done for the city that is greater than Hockey. Using his fame to bring fundraising to hospitals and even donating $10 million to the Children's hospital of Montreal is something everyone will always respect and appreciate of him.
Leaf fan here. Came to say the same. PK is awesome.
True that. With the way that this team has historically conducted itself, I understand the decision to move on from him. At times, he appeared to put himself above the team and I think that influenced his transiency. Bergy wasn't wrong. That said, tonight's a good move on his part. Although they likely brought him in due to the team's performance (a morale boost), he did well with it. Definitely made that little girl's night.
@@TechnoForever21 Yeah and it was Bergevin's best trade. A personality for a hockey player and best captain in the league!
PK and Carey doing the triple low 5 just put a huge smile on my face
@. Were you always such a sad, joykill, bitter twat your whole life? Or do you just hate anyone enjoying some harmless fun? God you must be horrible to be around with. It's team bonding and harmless fun that the fans enjoy, as well as good for the game. Get that stick out of your ass.
@. M. Therrien are you using burner accounts now? 😂
Been saying it for years... CBC bring back Coach's Corner back. Coach's Corner w/ PK. Sharp dresser. Good guy. Knows hockey. And can talk. We need more PK. CBC needs PK. Class act guy.
I think he’s with Espn so I don’t know if they can hire him, but I agree, they totally should
@@TechnoForever21 Jen botteril is also espn so I don’t see why not
O my god that's a GENIUS idea, Pk Subban and Teemu Selanne as the other guy haha ♥ A man can dream
@@PeachRap Love Teemu, but he doesn't seem like the type of person that would enjoy being an analyst for a big company since there's always some corporate a-hole telling them what to say.
@@lelouchvibritannia4028 Who would you picture as a perfect side?
Subban and price were my heroes growing up. Love seeing this
Me too, I still have a poster of both in my room. I’m 23 now, but they were my childhood heroes.
@@benjamingravel4430 they’re still my heroes and perfect role models!
lifetime Habs fan here, seeing PK and Price doing the triple low 5 one more time makes me so happy. Smile and tears at the same time. Thank you PK for everything!
he could give anonymously without seeking praise like others did instead he seeks praise for exaggerated salary anyway most overrated on ice ever
Pure class
this man got me into watching hockey, i thought the players were like robots in interviews, PK is a great role model and this was beautiful to watch
And he paid for that passion and charisma with the hate he endured.

I was beyond saddened when he was traded! Love this man! Meeting him in person and shaking his hand is the only thing on my bucket list. My son and I went to Nashville to watch him play after he was traded. It was a great trip
@. a lot like Mathews
He should never have been traded. We were heartbroken
NAAAH THE CAREY AND PK HANDSHAKE I'M CRYING 😭😭😭😭😭💙❤️
The final triple low 5 makes me cry every single time I watch it
p k was a full heart player no cap : 100 percent every night
something strong enough to make a grown man cry
he could give anonymously without seeking praise like others did instead he seeks praise for exaggerated salary anyway most overrated on ice ever
Definitely one of the most exciting players for the Habs in recent memory. Well deserved. The final Price/Subban triple low 5 was just PERFECT.
PK is a real dude, his actions speak louder than anything, I got so much respect for him especially with what he did for the children's hospital.. what an amazing human being. Montreal (514) would like to adopt him :)
A man who truly understands the mission. He has given back so much, especially to the kids. Absolute beauty, enjoy retirement 🙏
Much respect PK... keep doing you brother
WE LOVE YOU PK
Not only is he one of the greatest Hockey Players of all time, PK is a stellar human-being. Professional sports needs more people like him. It was a blessing watching him play over the years, and to watch him grow as a person.
Love PK just wish he was still playing! Respect!
Retired too soon.
@@kreed82 agreed
I love that little girl !❤
a lot of people don’t like this man but i have nothing but respect for everything he has done for the game and the stuff he’s done outside of the game this man is a pure class act
The way PK ended with Habs is sad, I used to love this player but the 2 last years were not great. PK was sticking on his game instead of going with the game plan from the coach, relation was bad and the captain Max Pacioretty was acting with no leadership, it was for sure a future fail for the team. Instead of adapting his game to the situation PK decided to stick to the way he use to play all the time and it was the end for sure because by doing this you become a selfish player and teammates hate that, then all the game suffer. I am not telling PK was fully responsible of this, this guy was ahead of new style and rest of the team was not ready for that. Whatever PK did outside of the game was simply great and I have a big admiration for that despite the fact I use to disagree with his behavior on the ice for at leas the last year with Habs.
I beg to differ, everyone loves this man, many don’t appreciate this hockey player’s behaviors or mentality.
Je l'aime beaucoup pour les enfants. Quel homme.il vaut toute le club a lui seul. Bravo
❤❤❤❤❤PK will always be in my heart love him 💜 ❤
Means everything man 🥲🥲
One big FU at the end, loved it
Tearing up. End was priceless
Always liked PK subban as a player for who he is as a person too. Thank you for all the years you've played and happy retirement 🏒❤
Class act. I grew up watching PK, he will always be my favourite Habs player of all time
Always love PK 😍😍😍😍😍
pk is an all time great for what he stood for and represented all the respect and love for him, thanks for all the great memories as a habs fan
I am a long time Habs fan. I have never seen anyone plays hard like PK Subban. He always give 100% effort every game. He is my favorite habs player. Kirk muller and brendan gallagher give 100% every game too but Pk subban was exceptionel. All the best in your off ice futur PK.
Tremendous talent, such a great entertainer and class act. Stick taps for P.K. Subban!!
Much respect to Montreal from a life Leaf fan.
Hadn't cry like this since the cup run.
Michele Therrien cut his wings and nearly stifled his career. PK’s brand ruffled the rest of the non-charismatic feathers of the Habs organization he loved so much. At least he was traded for the most dominant D-man at the time. But hey, he’s being honored for a reason. Fans know what’s up. Class act by the CH
The triple low 5 hit hard :( I'll miss those guys
So awesome to see ok and Cary together
the joy he brought to that kid and the things he has done, and is doing for the kids easily represents who he is.
Since PK left the Habs, it was that time I barely watch the Habs. Lately, I start to watch but I always end up closing the TV after 10 mins. PK Respect!!
Exactly! i could watch the habs even when we were losing because Subban would never give up, the passion was always there. Still mad about that exchange, what a shame
@PeachRap it was amazing to watch him play. The fact that he help the children hospital that made us love him even more!
Before we even know it , we got our legends of the NHL
Miss you P.K. you were & are amazing!!
What a class act PK Subban is! Love him, loved his time in Montreal! That was an awesome tribute to him. Cheers to all the Canadians 🇨🇦
The low high fives at the end is a big f*u to the coach/gm that told them back in da day to not to this at the end of winning games. ❤️ it.
I remember PK in the playoffs in his first games 😀😀😀😀. Thank you PK for the thrills. What a style!!! Love the coat.
P.K. is a good man we need more people like him in this world.
A great news story, loyalty walking on two feet..so unique these days
Cheers to P.K.! He was a good player on the ice but was and is a great man off it. Glad the Habs fans gave him a nice reception....but I really didn't expect anything less. 🍻👏
PK is a great humanitarian. He was also a very good hockey player!
It brought tears to my eyes
Seeing Price come out to do the handshake was awesome
still my favorite player
Love You P.K always have always will !!! Great human being period Glad to see You in Montreal again Brother!!!!!@
Im not much of a hockey fan and Im from Ottawa, but you can see the impact hes had on and off the ice. Hes inspired a ton of kids not only to pursue hockey as a dream, but hes done a lot to impact both children and adults to keep their dreams of whatever they pursue alive. Hes also done a lot for racism in Canada and Quebec. Its not a topic often talked about, but something about your favourite Hockey teams best player being a person of colour makes people impact how they see and interact with the rest of us people of colour. His impact will be felt for years and years in ways hell have never even realized. I think I speak for Montreal, Quebec and all of Canada when we say thank you. An amazing hockey player, but an even better human being.
Quebec had people of color who became superstars since at least the 40s-50s lol One good exemple was Jackie Robinson before he went for the LA Dodgers and became the 2nd black man to play in MLB. Willie O'Ree who played in Québec city in the 50s and end up the first black man to play in the NHL with the Boston Bruins.
Also, let's not forget about Herbert Carnegie who technically should've have been the first Black man to play in the NHL since he was invited by the New York Rangers in 1948. (10 years before Willie O'ree) but decline the offer since he was earning more money playing in Québec plus he was not victims of racisms. Just because of that he spend his whole career playing in Québec League.
@@VinceLocRS PK Subban might not have the same impact on today's youth as those heroes, but he will still have positively impacted a generation of young fans. It's important to keep that tradition going.
@@sadassadas8946 Oh for sure, Subban will be remember for a longtime in Montréal. But when we talk about longterm influence... I doubt cuz the new generation tend to not dig into their local history. For exemple, all the people I named...Their local legacy have been lost by the new generation for a long time. As a society, Québec young generation should dig into it... In a time where the skin Color was a major issue accross North America... Here in Québec it was just a skin pigment and were seen equal to us french-Canadians... This is someting to be celebrating... But people tend to forget and instead of digging into the history of where they live, people will generalizes their story with others story and forget each community have his own story and it deserves to be known by the new generation.
@@VinceLocRS I have a bit of a different outlook on racism in Quebec. Its not exactly been "Just a skin pigment". Quebec has bans on headscarfs for public servents which was passed and still remains a law since 2019. Quebec has a REALLY long way to go. You referenced Jackie Robinson......and glossed over the fact that he was sent to Montreal to play specifically to see if he could handle the racism that was dished out on a bigger stage..... I think youre mistaking these leaps by people of colour joining and playing in Montreal as because they played there, everything is okay.....it wasnt and still isnt. We as a country have taken a lot of steps forward since then for sure, but its far from perfect still..... I dont mean to turn any of this political, nor take this post away from the spotlight of PK, but I think its extremely important to understand, Quebec has a lot of work to do. Racism is just a differentiation between skin pigments. There will be a influx of all kids growing up who will pursue hockey as a sport because of PK. And those kids might go on to inspire others until its not a surprise to see a brown, asian, hispanic or any other race, playing at a high level in the NHL. You dont always have to remember the spark when the light generated from that spark continues to shine and light up brighter and brighter. Its nice to remember the sparks, but its also important to learn and keep growing. Just in 2014 Boston fans took to twitter and the N-word was trending in the Boston area after PK scored a goal. Even Montreal fans have resorted to racism regarding their own player when he didnt perform.....Theres a lot of work to do. Thankfully PK was extremely impactful and hopefully helps spark future growth and change in Quebec, Montreal and Canada. Again, apologies for taking away from the post and though I do agree with your underlying statement of remembering the heros of the past, its also important to stay grounded in the reality of the current world we live in. Its not all sunshines and rainbows. I think youre painting a bit of a happier picture than reality would suggest with all due respect. It wasn't perfect in the past, it wasnt when PK was playing and it isnt now.
Markov needs a ceremony too! Imagine him and Subban together!
Growing up watching him in his prime was the absolute best. Especially in his MTL years. Everytime he stepped on the ice you knew something good was gonna happen. He was THE playmaker for the Habs on the backend. Loved his game and what he’s done off the ice as well. Just an electrifying player in his prime.
Absolute 🐐farewell pk hope you live an amazing life
Hero! Long live PK
Legit almost had me in tears when they did the triple low 5 five one last time.
Omg that place exploded after the triple low five

❤❤❤ PK ❤️❤️❤️
This is just pure wholesomeness 😂❤
Brings Back Memories. Price + Subban Good times in Montreal.
I spent my share of time in the hospital as a kid (not complaining, these kids he's helping have it much harder than I did and I'm sure they're dealing with it with exemplary courage.) I remember that one time we received a signed cardboard cutout of Patrick Roy and I still remember how awesome we all thought it was and how much it cheered us up. I don't know if people realize how much good athletes and public figures can do for kids like that. Merci infiniment PK!
I hope he will live a happy life ever thereafter.
We always love you PK ❤️
Super classy, and well spoken. Gotta love what PK
Brother was looking sharp!!! congratulations PK keep on helping those kids 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
NHL has, and will always do the best tributes of the 4 major NA sports.
I remember 13 y/o me crying when he was traded (Webs became one of my favs too) Thanks PK!
Class by the Molson family and class by PK Subban in his humble speech!
I still have PKs jersey. Luvd his passion and heart as a habs player , he left it on the ice like he said. If all 23 players had his passion , heart and desire habs would have 30 cups by now. ❤76
What a great man with a great heart! God bless
Pk is a superhero
man that moment between price and subban at the end was priceless
See what you did there
technically, it was not priceless.
@@raider61x exactly what i was saying. Technically it was pricefull
I was forever a pk fan after he kronwall'd marchand. One of the best hits in nhl history.
I still have that saved on my phone 😅
Always been a Montreal Canadian fan and when P K arrived what an exciting time to watch the game of hockey. All the best in your life away from the game you loved ,thanks to the great organization for the awesome tribute
I Love that Guy! Keep on keeping on P.K! Montreal (my favourite team of all time) very class act to honour him that way!
Probably one of the last Hab to play with real passion, thank you for everything PK! He's bigger than hockey & we need more pro players as involved as him off the ice.
I mean, in all fairness you need to have passion to be in the nhl but Pk wore his heart on his sleeve every night.
He is a man who gave his word to support the hospital and even when he left he continued to support the hoapital. His incredible and great sporting accomplishments will always be second to what he contributed to the Hospital..He gave his word and kept his word!
