My dad has always said to me, "where there is a will there is a way" and this is the type of dedication hockey has taught me. Being dedicated to this sport [hockey] has been my will to play.

Magic Johnson is my biggest role model and I am his biggest fan. I actually met him recently and ran up to him and said, "man, I am your biggest fan, I'm P.K. Subban," and he said "I know who you are," and I was like, "what!" I was blown away just standing there talking to him and he was so nice.

I'm the oldest, I have the most experience, and I'm the best looking [betwin brothers]. I've been told that on numerous occasions.

Playing in the NHL, it's a great job, it's a great life to live, and we just want to have the opportunity to do that. That's going to come from our hard work and dedication to the sport. As far as being black players in the league, obviously it's great.

Growing up, it was tough to balance, but looking back I appreciate my parents' efforts to make sure I was well-rounded.

We [the Subban brothers] are role models to a lot of kids, not just black kids, but all kids out there and that's what we want to be known for.

The biggest challenge was the cost to play the sport, and this is a challenge that my parents faced. They relied on the community and friends and family for support, and I learned to play hockey using second hand equipment.
