It’s official. All three Subban brothers now have NHL contracts.
The Vancouver Canucks signed defenceman Jordan Subban to a three-year, entry-level contract, general manager Jim Benning announced Thursday.
“So thrilled to sign my first NHL contract today!” Subban wrote on Instagram. “Great to officially be apart of the @canucks family!!”
The 20-year-old younger brother of Montreal’s P.K. and Boston’s Malcolm, Jordan Subban wrapped his fourth season with the Ontario Hockey League’s Belleville Bulls. The blueliner set career-highs and led his junior club in goals (25), power-play goals (eight) and points (52) in 63 games played.
His 25 goals marked the most ever scored by a Belleville defenceman in a single season.
The Rexdale, Ont., native was selected in the fourth round (115th overall) by Vancouver in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft.
