Career

As a player

In the 1993/94 NHL season he won the Stanley Cup for the first time with the Rangers , for New York it was the first championship since 1940 . During the regular season, the Russian scored 89 points, more than any other Rangers player this season. In August 1995, the defender was transferred to the Pittsburgh Penguins together with Petr Nedvěd , the Rangers received the players Luc Robitaille and Ulf Samuelsson in return . In Pittsburgh, Subow completed another season before he was transferred to the Dallas Stars on June 22, 1996 in exchange for Kevin Hatcher . With the Stars, the defender won the Stanley Cup for the second time in his career in the 1998/99 season . In the following season Subow reached the Stanley Cup finals again with the stars, but lost them in six encounters against the New Jersey Devils . The Russian defender was instrumental in these successes along with Ed Belfour , Brett Hull and Mike Modano .

Subow was one of the leading players in Dallas and showed valuable qualities as an offensive defender. He was also noticed because of his fair play and only collected a few penalty minutes. At the end of the 2002/03 season he reached the Conference Semifinal with the Stars, in which they failed 4-2 at the Anaheim Ducks. Subow contributed a total of 79 scorer points and was the second best scorer of the team behind Modano. In the following three game years, the stars never got past the first playoff round. During the lockout in the 2004/05 season, Subow paused ice hockey.

After the 2005/06 season he was nominated for the James Norris Memorial Trophy thanks to his good all-round skills . However, the trophy went to Nicklas Lidström of the Detroit Red Wings , Subow received the third most votes in the vote. In the playoffs 2008 he reached the final of the Western Conference with the Stars, in which they were defeated 2-4 by the Detroit Red Wings. Previously, he had missed most of the regular season due to a hernia .

At the beginning of the 2008-09 NHL season , the defender underwent hip surgery and missed the first twelve games of the season. Subow injured his hip again after a game by the Stars against the San Jose Sharks , which resulted in another operation. Sergei Zubov missed the stars for the remaining 60 games of the season, his expiring contract was not extended. On July 30, 2009, the Russian signed a two-year contract with SKA Saint Petersburg from the Continental Hockey League .

On April 18, 2011 Subow resigned due to persistent hip problems from active competitive sports after he had previously missed the entire season.

In 2019, his playing career was honored with his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame .

International

At the international level, Subow first appeared at the European Junior Championships in 1988 in the Czech Republic . The then 17-year-old played all six tournament games for the USSR and won the bronze medal behind Czechoslovakia and Finland with the team that also included Pawel Bure . Despite only two assists in the course of the tournament, Subow was named the best defender of the competition and appointed to the All-Star team. In the following year, the offensive-talented defender played again for the USSR at the Junior World Cup in the United States . In the country of their arch rivals, the Sbornaja celebrated winning the gold medal just ahead of the Swedes placed behind them . Subow contributed five assists in seven games. The team could not repeat the title win at the Junior World Championship in Finland in 1990 . Canada defeated the USSR, which had to be content with second place and the silver medal. The defender was successful again with one goal and another three assists.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union , Subow only played internationally again at the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville, France . For the United Team - the national team of the Commonwealth of Independent States - he played eight games during the Olympic ice hockey tournament . Thanks to victories over the USA in the semi-finals and Canada in the final, the team won the gold medal. Subov contributed to this success with a goal preparation.

In the same year, Subow was also nominated for the World Cup in Czechoslovakia. From then on, however, he played for Russia . The team disappointed, however - despite an almost flawless preliminary round - with a fifth place. The Russians failed in the quarter-finals at the eventual world champions Sweden. For Subow it should be - statically speaking - the best tournament among the seniors. The Moscow-born player scored four points in six games, including two goals. It took a full four years before Subov returned to Russia because of his commitment to North America. As part of the World Cup of Hockey , which was held for the first time in 1996 , the successor to the Canada Cup , the Russians reached the semi-finals. There they lost to the eventual winner from the USA in the semi-finals. Subov completed four of the five games in which he scored twice.
