ESPN has added P.K. Subban to it’s NHL coverage as a studio analyst.
The three-time All-Star and Norris Trophy winner announced his retirement over the summer, and said he can bring a unique perspective to ESPN’s NHL coverage.
“For a long time, I’ve sat in the locker room with teammates and discussed what it would be like to be on the other side as analyst,” said Subban. “I have a vested interest in growing the game and know the importance of the rapidly expanding sports landscape, so I look forward to bringing my unique insights from having recently been on the ice and now my off-ice perspective.”
In addition to his work with the NHL on ESPN, Subban will also add a P.K.’s Places series as part of his duties with the network. It’s the latest expansion of the Places franchise, a partnership between ESPN and Omaha Productions.
“P.K. brings a fresh perspective to his analysis, having recently retired from the game, but he also draws on much more than just his experience on the ice, which gives him a unique, fun perspective that fans will love,” ESPN Senior Vice President of Production and Remote Events Mark Gross said. “We have a great team of analysts, hosts and reporters, and adding P.K. to the mix just makes us that much better.”
Subban spent 13 years in the NHL, playing for the Montreal Canadiens, Nashville Predators, and New Jersey Devils during his career.
