Pageau not backing down from Subban's hard slap shots: 'I'm not moving'

Jean-Gabriel Pageau isn't back down.

The Ottawa Senators forward had a noticeable limp after blocking a P.K. Subban shot during Friday's Game 5 in Montreal, but remains intent on getting in the way despite assurances from the Canadiens defenseman that the puck is only going to come at him with greater force.

Pageau has been credited with 14 blocked shots in the series, and while he was listed as day-to-day after Game 5, it sure sounds like he'll be back on the ice Sunday, trying to make things difficult for Subban and his teammates.
