A good interview. He is clearly a smart kid and didn't come across as too cocky, quite mature actually.
I've got a good feeling about this pick...

This guy should be the next Prime Minister.
Honestly, have you ever heard an 18 yo conduct himself so well in multiple interviews? No wonder he blew the Habs out of the water.

Appearantly he does know, alot of people were impressed by his play on Both sides of the ice during the playoffs...maybe its just because he was in the playoffs...or maybe he just figured out he has to focus on the defensive side too.
Hopefully we get a better look at it during rookie camp + training camp

Found this little blurb in Macleans,
HE'LL GET TORONTO THE STANLEY CUP
With their second round pick at this year's NHL entry draft, the Montreal Canadiens selected freeskating defenceman Pernell Karl "P.K." Subban, whose good-natured confidence and wise-assing made him a media favourite. He says his initials actually stand for "Penalty Killer." "I'm going to bring another Stanley Cup to Montreal," P.K. says, "and then bring the Cup back home, parade it through the streets of Toronto." It was pure Subban mischief, reminding Toronto it hasn't won in 40 years. P.K.'s father Karl became a devout Habs fan after immigrating from Jamaica. He put P.K. on skates when he was still a toddler. "He still had his Pampers on," Karl says. A friend of Karl's was so impressed by P.K.'s skating ability that he paid for the boy's first set of hockey equipment. P.K. now gets the chance to live out every Habs fan's fantasy. And fantasy may yet turn to reality, thanks to P.K.'s incredible determination: "My mindset is to make the team in September. If you don't have that mindset why bother?"
