John Scott rips Subban: 'On the ice he's a piece of garbage'

While he might be done playing hockey, John Scott hasn't stopped throwing jabs.

The former heavyweight forward appeared on the recent ESPN "E:60" profile of Nashville Predators defenseman P.K. Subban, in which Scott spoke rather ill of the former Norris Trophy winner.

"I don't like him. I think on the ice, he's a piece of garbage," Scott said, according to Puck Daddy's Greg Wyshynski. "Perceived as like a hot shot, (that) this guy thinks he's better than everybody."

The words are rather eye-opening and appeared to come out of nowhere, considering the two are not known for any on-ice animosity toward each other.

The profile also covered Subban's upbringing, his career highlights, and some of the challenges he's dealt with regarding racism.

As for Scott's comments, Subban is about to begin playing for the Stanley Cup, so chances are he has better things to worry about right now.

Several clips from the profile can be viewed here. Meanwhile, the entire profile can be re-watched in it's entirety Sunday on ESPNEWS at 9 p.m. ET, while those in Canada can catch it Tuesday on TSN 2 at 10 p.m. ET.
