Canadiens' P.K. Subban to donate $10 million to children's hospital
He may be a mean, gritty guy on the ice, but off the ice, P.K. Subban is a standup dude that is always looking out for others.
A $10 million donation and a fundraising partnership with the Montreal Children's Hospital is expected to be announced in Subban's name after the P.K. Subban Atrium was unveiled on Wednesday.

The Montreal Canadiens' defenseman is set to make $11.5 million this season ($7 million salary plus a $4.5 million signing bonus).
The partnership between Subban and the Montreal Children's Hospital is set for at least seven years, the exact number of years remaining on Subban's eight-year, $72 million contract he signed in August of 2014.
