GAME. BLOUSES.
P.K. Subban must know a thing or two about speaking things into existence. After the Nashville Predators found themselves in a 2-0 hole to the defending champion Pittsburgh Penguins in the Stanley Cup Final, the star defenseman predicted that the Predators would bounce back in Game 3 when the series moved to the comfy confines of Nashville, Tennessee. True to Subban’s word, the Predators defeated the Penguins, 5-1, on June 3.
After the game, things got even juicier, as Subban got into a battle of words with Pittsburgh captain and star Sidney Crosby. Subban and Crosby were seen jawing during the end of the game, and Subban was asked about what was said during a postgame interview. He told a reporter that Crosby said his breath didn’t smell good. We learned that Subban uses Listerine before games, and that Crosby didn’t pick up on the joke. That’s a win-win for Subban in a less-than-24-hour span.

P.K. Subban isn't buying what Sidney Crosby is selling. He thinks his breath smells great.

Crosby not getting that Subban was joking is the most Crosby thing that's ever happened.

Two things we keep re-learning:
1. There is no n-word pass. (They are all imaginary);
2. Race is still the #1 source of American discomfort.— Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) June 3, 2017
People shocked at Bill Maher being racist-y, check w your Arab & Muslim friends. Been doing this for a LONG time, but he got hall passes.
