It looks like PK Subban may once again be on the move to a new team.

The New Jersey Devils are trying to part ways and test the market if any team is interested in acquiring the veteran defenseman. PK currently has one year remaining on his contract at a $9 million cap hit.

After leading the Canadiens in assists (45) and average time on ice (26:22, fifth in the NHL) in 2015-16, Subban was traded to the Nashville Predators for defenseman Shea Weber on June 29, 2016.

In his first season with the Predators, Subban scored 40 points (10 goals, 30 assists) in 66 regular-season games and 12 points (two goals, 10 assists) in 22 postseason games, helping Nashville reach the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since entering the NHL in 1998.

He played all 82 games in 2017-18 and was named to the NHL All-Star Game for the third time, scoring 59 points (16 goals, 43 assists) for the Predators, who won the Presidents’ Trophy as the NHL’s top regular-season finisher.

Subban scored 31 points (nine goals, 22 assists) in 63 games in 2018-19 and was traded to the Devils on June 22, 2019. He had 18 points (seven goals, 11 assists) in 68 games for New Jersey when the 2019-20 season was paused March 12 due to concerns surrounding the coronavirus.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
