Report: One team executive says Subban's 'name has come up' on trade market
It's going from silly to sillier in Montreal.
A night after TSN's Bob McKenzie reported that Montreal Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban and Michel Therrien aren't going anywhere, TVA's Louis Jean has chimed in.
Jean cites a team executive who claims that Subban's "name has come up" on the trade market.
Not suggesting #Canadiens will trade Subban. Just saying one team confirmed #Habs are "gauging the market".

Subban was called out by Therrien after Montreal's latest loss, leading to speculation that a shoe is set to drop within the Canadiens' camp.
