Why did MTL make this trade?

Subban is too colorful has too much personality for them.

Nah, aimed at the joke

Besides, Canada was a relatively safe haven after the FSA, thankfully

They got housed by NSH

Great stuff from a French-Canadian Redditor

This is why we can't have nice things In Montréal. Show toô much personality and you are judged and ran out of town by the Media. Guy was à Superstar and acted like one, no no, can't do that In Montreal. Guy Lafleur, **** you for judging him you backward dickhead, P.K. Never drove drunk and got In accidents, imagine if he did, hé would had been burned at the stakes. I'm happy for him to get out of this mediash*t City, we didn't deserve him. Hope hé keep being himself and Nashville actually treat him like the superstar that he is. **** the Montréal hockey media, this is why we been sucking for Over 20 years, can't treat our stars with respect. **** you Bergevin, go sign 6 4th liner you incompétent ****. I'm done with this shitshow until you and MT are gone.
This post has been typed with à lot of rage. Sorry. P.K. was m'y héro and I'm Very Very pissed.

CONFIRMED: #Preds will not honour PK Subban's NMC. It was their choice since clause not in effect at time of trade.

I wonder what would happen if Nashville then traded Subban back to Montreal. Would he then have no NMC? That would be hilarious.

Good lord, why? @mikey, please explain, haha.

Cap recapture penalty. Making up for all those years at the end that drag down the cap hit. Weber has a bunch of $1 million years tacked on to his deal to reduce the cap hit. The total penalty, given their formula, is some $25 million...but given that you don't pay that penalty down over time, so to speak, it gets distributed over the remaining "unused" years of the contract.

If that didn't make sense, and in a lot of ways it doesn't, don't worry. Given Weber's style of play, he'll end his career on LTIR and it won't matter. But there is a worst case scenario option out there if Weber ever were to feel jilted by the trade...
