A Quebec language group is raising a controversy over the pronunciation of Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban.

Yeah, seriously.

L'Association pour l'usage et le soutien de la langue française argues that that French-speaking broadcasters should pronounce P.K. Subban’s name as “Pay-Ka” Subban rather than the English pronunciation of “Pea-Kay.” Leave it up to the French-Canadians up there to make a controversy out of the most ridiculous things.

Reporters brought the news to P.K. himself and he replied jokingly that that if members of the media want to change his name he’d prefer to be Denzel. Props to P.K. for taking a lighthearted approach to it.

This is what you get with hockey up in Montreal. Their general manager has to be French-speaking. As does their head coach, even if the pool of head coaches suck. They’d pick the best of the sucky coaches just because he has to speak French. Max Pacioretty had to learn French as a condition of him becoming team captain. Don’t you remember that they invented the game? Their inflated egos and sense of self-worth makes them truly believe that.

In summation, Quebec blows.
