It's a great deal for Subban but also for the Montreal Canadians. On long term with the salary cap growing, they will benefit from that deal. You want an elite D ... you have to pay for it. He brings what we need on the ice: energy, hits-physical play, tones of shots, offensive creativity, deadly on PP, it's the real deal at the age of 25. He will gets better and better. No more distractions about his contract renewal for a lonnnng time. Now it will just be about the game, smash the opponent and working on his two way play on the ice. Improvement, Improvement, Improvement, and maybe someday he will be a top 2 Canadian D at the Olympics and maybe some day he will rise up the big trophy ... but you know that's just a Habs fan dream, for now ...
