Following yesterday's magical moment between PK Subban and Carey Price, who performed a final "Triple Low Five" in the middle of the Bell Centre:
Many Internet users have reopened the debate and have thrown small shots at former Montreal Canadiens head coach Michel Therrien.
Obviously, it's related to his decision (rather particular, let's admit it) to ban the famous "Triple Low Five" between Subban and Price.
Therrien, along with general manager Marc Bergevin (according to some) considered that it was too exuberant for their taste.
"We have to respect the game, we have to respect the fans."
- Michel Therrien
A statement and a decision that hasn't aged so well, especially after what we experienced yesterday.
The comments related to this story have been extremely numerous over the last few hours:
"Michel Therrien banned the triple low five 10 years ago by stating:
"We have to respect the game ... we have to respect the fans."
Well, it looks like Canadiens fans still have a lot of respect for Carey & PK and their classic celebration, which Therrien simply hated."
- HabsOnReddit
"Incredible moment that Canadiens fans won't soon forget: PK Subban and Carey Price doing the triple low five. That was for you Michel Therrien." - Eric Macramalla
"Carey Price comes out on the ice to do the triple low-five with PK Subban that was banned by former general manager Marc Bergevin and former head coach Michel Therrien. The fans loved it." - Stu Cowan
"Still, it's funny that PK and Carey Price's "triple low five" is in the Subban tribute video...when they were banned from doing it at the time. #irony" - Meeker Warrior
"Michel Therrien must have had a heart attack when he saw Carey Price and PK Subban doing their handshake." - Kevenle91
Other fans were, shall we say, a bit more direct:
It's certain that Therrien, who is often present on TVA Sports as a guest, will be talked about. We're looking forward to hearing his response, but at this point, we think we should just laugh it off.
In any case, what a great moment last night!
