Mark Messier and PK Subban Clash During LIVE Interview For a Controversial Opinion
The ESPN hockey panel has changed significantly from a few years ago due to the addition of several NHL icons, including the "GOAT" Wayne Gretzky, who occasionally makes appearances, but is now with the NHL TNT panel.
Fans at home are enjoying the newly introduced�PK Subban and Mark Messier, two former players, have recently joined the ESPN hockey panel. Arguments have frequently emerged when analyzing specific plays since Messier and Subban both played in 2 separate eras.
Ryan Lindgren, a defender for the New York Rangers, suffered an injury against the Washington Capitals on Saturday after taking a�hard hit from Capitals forward T.J. Oshie, which Rangers head coach Gerard Gallant later referred to as a "cheap hit" during post-game interviews. No matter what you think about the hit, Lindgren was quite injured after the play, and left the game.
The hit that sparked the controversy can be seen below:
Given that Mark Messier played in a far tougher era than Subban did, you may have expected him to be biased. Lindgren caused his own�injury, according to Messier, who thought the Rangers defender might have done more to defend himself.
Subban had enough and shook his head in disgust as Messier made his remarks. The eye roll says it all...
