I hate PK Subban but if you resort to using racism You're an idiot, I'm disappointed with the loss but using racism won change the score. I don't want to hear about racist tweets re: PK Subban. Please don't give these morons the attention they crave. I don't care if you don't like PK Subban. I don't like him either. But making racist comments about him on twitter?
Come on. It would be counter-productive to their development by putting them in a situation they aren't fully prepared for. They reach their prime at a later age because they take longer to develop, and much longer to adjust to the nuances of the pro game than the forward and defensive positions. This is why the AHL rules. You'll all see when Niklas Svedberg is Tuukka's back-up this season and is the most awesome of all the back-ups. Which brings me to my point. Why would you boo a 19 year old goaltender out of the arena for losing a preseason game to a Red Wings team that iced almost their entire NHL roster?
Malcolm Subban is 19 years old, had a roster in front of him of half AHL players and half NHL players playing like they were rookies themselves. Yeah, he will survive. But we already know that, which is why it is already the plan to have him play in the AHL in Providence for this upcoming season. The preseason serves multiple purposes, and one of them is to measure where your prospects are at in their readiness to join the NHL.
No amount of logic or fact will persuade most of the fans in attendance last night or fans still crapping on him today that they should not have been booing Subban or chanting "we want Tuukka" at him. He had success as a teenager and year-old in the NHL, but that happens so rarely. The only other example I can think of is Martin Broduer, who was drafted 20th overall in and has spent his entire career in New Jersey. He, too, is usually an exception to the rule when discussing what to expect out of good goalies.
But he had success, obviously, and then went off the deep end. Tuukka Rask has refined his game quite a bit since his rookie season and earned the reputation of an elite goalie. He was drafted 21st overall in and traded to the Bruins before he ever played for the team that drafted him, the Maple Leafs.
He never played Canadian junior hockey. He was drafted out of a Finnish league, where he played until he was 20 years old.
