National Hockey League 2015 - 2016

P.K. Subban will be ushering in 2016 in style, literally, and for a good cause.

The Montreal Canadiens' star defenceman will be wearing personalized skates against the Boston Bruins for the Winter Classic on Jan. 1 at Gillete Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.


Subban, who had an interest in sketching as a child, has teamed with former Bruins legendary defenceman Ray Bourque and will raffle off tickets for the skates to raise money for P.K.'s Helping Hand, a fund dedicated to assisting vulnerable families financially devastated by a child's illness.

Subban, who estimates eight pairs will be made at the CCM-Reebok factory in St. Jean, Que., has his No. 76 on the side of the skates while the pump above sports the No. 4 for late Canadiens great Jean Beliveau, who had a great impact on Subban's life and dedicated his life after hockey to helping children.
