I instantly connected with the sport and I have fond memories of growing up on my skating rink that my dad made for us in our backyard.

Most kids start playing hockey at the age of five, I was an earlier bloomer. My parents laced up my first pair of skates and put me on the ice at the young age of 2 ½, basically right after I mastered walking.

I think it's just having the support of our parents. Knowing that they're going to keep you on the right path and guide you.

Now that doesn't take anything away from my brothers, Malcolm [Subban] is good looking and Jordan's [Subban] a good looking guy, too. I mean they are related to me so they get a little bit of the looks.

I mean the NHL never called me and wanted me to show up at the draft.

I really don't care what the other team thinks. I don't care what their fans think. If they hate me, great. Hate me. We'll just keep winning, I'll keep scoring and we'll move on.

I can't wait for the crowd, the noise, the energy in the building. I can't wait to take that all away from them.
