Price & Subbans "Triple-low-fives"......
 
are now banned.....

Therrien is really pushing this whole "team celebration" thing which I agree is a smart approach, but I don't think it needs to come at the expense of something innocent and fun that I know so many fans enjoyed watching.

All I hope is that Subban helps the Habs win more games and he continues to be a fantasy monster.

These two are not going to get along very well....I'm going to miss those low-fives. Not happy at all with this decision.

Yeah, I think the worst part of it so far was when Therrien came out and said "I want to make PK a better person"....wtf.? I don't think he really knows him well enough to make a statement like that.

They are going too far with the Subban punishment. The contract is signed and they should just move on.

Agreed.
If they "punish him" by giving him low minutes, not much PP time, or even not dressing him for Saturdays game, than it is Therrien who is not caring about the team. If you want the "team" to win, you should play Subban and play him a lot. He is simply much more talented than all the D on that roster (save for Markov). Simply put - Subban makes this team even better.

I don't think it's a bad thing to give Subban lower minutes at first. But the extra stuff like not letting him meet his teammates till after the last game and banning some celebrations looks more like management/coaching ego to me. They made their point when they signed him to a short contract.

Every one loves that triple low five.
That center ice team celebration is fine and all, but it's nowhere near as good as the Price/Subban cely.

Low minutes at first for the sake of easing him back into it is fine, but I get the feeling that the low minutes will be given for the wrong reasons.

I never heard about making him wait until after the game to see his team. Therrien rules with an Iron fist. As long as they win games, all can be forgiven.

I don't think banning something like this warranted. Although I do think it's obnoxious... take your win like an unsung hero. When you crack 70 points like Karlsson, then feel free to three hand slap, kiss, or whatever you see fit.

So until I score 70 points in the NHL from the blueline, I'm not allowed to triple low-five my friends? Seems a little stuffy and harsh, but damn guess I better shape up.
