Former NHL enforcer John Scott says P.K. Subban is a ‘piece of garbage’

P.K. Subban will make his Stanley Cup Final debut when the Nashville Predators open their series against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday night. Not everyone is thrilled about that, apparently.

ESPN aired a feature highlighting the Predators defenseman over the weekend and it was not entirely complimentary. Former NHL enforcer John Scott, who retired after last season, didn’t have great things to say about Subban.

“I don’t like him. I think on the ice, he’s a piece of garbage,” said Scott. “Perceived as like a hot shot, this guy thinks he’s better than everybody.”

This kind of criticism isn’t anything new for Subban.
