If you’re not familiar with Jordan Subban, he is the younger brother of Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban and Boston Bruins goaltender Malcolm Subban. Or, as you may know him now, the Subban brother who looks like Lloyd Christmas from Dumb & Dumber.
The youngest Subban, who is a defenseman in the Vancouver Canucks organization, had a little mishap during the NHL’s rookie tournament this week that led to his new dental landscape. I’ll let him tell it in his own words:
After we got back to the hotel last night, I was in my room just hanging out when I heard some of the boys in the hallway. I poked my head out the door to see where they were headed, they said to eat and I had already had a bite, so I turned to go back into my room.
BAM.
I don’t know what the heck happened, but next thing I knew half my front tooth was on the floor and there was a hole in the door. So now I look like Lloyd Christmas from Dumb & Dumber. Great.
I mean, it’s certainly not uncommon for hockey players to be missing teeth so Subban won’t exactly feel out of place, but those casualties usually come as a result of, you know, the game. Losing a battle with a hotel room door is, for lack of a better term, an “inventive” new way of altering that smile.
