Multi-Episode Series Streams on NBCSports.com, NBC Sports App, and NBC Sports’ YouTube Channel

P.K. Subban’s All-Star Special Airs Friday, January 25 at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN – Following Coverage of 2019 SAP NHL All-Star Skills

STAMFORD, Conn. – January 22, 2019 – NBC Sports Group will debut THE P.K. PROJECT, a multi-episode NBC Sports Digital series chronicling the life of Nashville Predators defenseman and three-time NHL All-Star P.K. Subban, tomorrow, Wednesday, Jan. 23, on NBCSports.com, the NBC Sports app and NBC Sports YouTube channel.

From a guided tour of Subban’s hometown of Nashville, Tenn., to jamming with country music star Lee Brice, THE P.K. PROJECT takes viewers behind the scenes and inside the non-stop life of one of the NHL’s most popular and fashion-forward athletes.

In the premiere episode of the exclusive digital-only series, the Music City superstar, serial entrepreneur and philanthropist journeys to Toronto as the Predators visit the Maple Leafs. Subban spends time with his parents and sisters, gets some home cooking at his parents’ house, and then the entire family gathers at the game.

“I love going home,” said Subban. “Home is home, but I’m not going to lie. Going home comes at a cost… It’s absolute mayhem.”

Click here for a preview.

In the coming episodes, THE P.K. PROJECT examines some of Nashville’s culinary hotspots and signature dishes, like biscuits, banana pudding, and Nashville hot chicken, features a music session with Brice, a two-time Grammy Song of the Year nominee, goes all-access with Subban as the Predators take on the reigning Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals, and more.

New episodes of THE P.K. PROJECT will debut each Wednesday across NBC Sports Digital platforms.

In conjunction with Glassman Media and PeeK Productions, NBC Sports will also present P.K. Subban’s All-Star Special, a one-hour late night talk show hosted by Subban, that will air Friday, Jan. 25 on NBCSN at 11:30 p.m. ET, immediately following the conclusion of the 2019 SAP NHL All-Star Skills. The special will feature several vignettes, as Subban interviews some of the brightest NHL stars and entertainers, amidst a backdrop of fans in the heart of downtown San Jose, Calif.

Earlier this month, NBC Sports Group and Subban agreed to a first-of-its-kind content partnership to produce the original digital series, as well as the television special.
