haha. Damn. Now i feel the fool

So he played game 6 with A broken rib Torn cartilage Punctured lung Separated shoulder

No, they go in the back of the hand or vein in arm crease (elbow region). Weird.

Why would he be getting an injection near his lungs for painkillers?

Bernier is still a prospect, he was traded for less than expected, but there is still risk involved with him

Toews and Kane assisted on the late tying goal

I'm pretty sure Stafford would be involved in the trade. I imagine something like: Toews and Kane for Stafford, Adam, 2nd, 1st and Sekera (cos you know, you need to give to get)

I don't doubt what Kane can do on the ice. He simply has no off-ice attributes that are attractive. For the price it would cost to get him, i would rather get a lesser player with more all round ability and off-ice characteristics that could be built around. Also what sizzle said. Apparently the 4 times i explained it last time wasb't enough. Fifth times the charm

I only watched 20 minutes of the playoffs, but i chose a good 20 to watch

Toews and Kane both have a Conn Smyth - good on-ice leaders right there

Chicago just stole the cup

Toews and Kane are clutch shiiiiiiiiiiiit

Toews is taking a beating this game. He is one of my favourite players in this league. I wish we had him

So would the leafs

I'm shocked he was let go for so little, basically a bunch of scraps - Enroth, Gerbe and a 5th would have landed Bernier

This is my view as well - i see no reasn people are against it - we aren't going anywhere anytime soon but we still need to put an actual team on the ice. Not to mention the Oilers have shown how bad it is to make a team of prospects and just let them play. Devine said he thinks a team can only handle 1, 2 at the most, prospects per year for breaking into a team

Ennis needs to gain weight - he is 5'9', which is serviceable (Shaw is 5'10') but he weighs like 170 - if he gained another stone he would be able to hold onto the puck for longer

That's fine. He is good on the ice, if that's all you want out of your star players then yes he is fine. But for the cost i would want more. Also i would like him to be better defensively. I don't want puritans or Kane. I want Toews Also, in a league that rewards its star players with captaincy, i think it is telling Kane doesn't even wear an A

Since the Crosby era began, could you please name a player who won the cup, was a key member of the team and was a (rumoured) heavy drinker? Kane is a good player, a very talented one, but that doesn't mean he is a 'hard worker'. To clarify, every professional player is a hard worker, you can't not be. But they are not all equal. Kane is talented but i have never heard anything good about his work ethic (c.f. Crosby and Toews). If i am trading my future for a star, i want a star who brings more than just on-ice. Leino said our locker room was ######, Pommers said our locker room was ######, Regehr said our locker room was ######. Kane isn't a player who would change that in anyway

1) Yes that is true, but with sport getting tougher and tougher every year there is less room for players to have liberties 2) Once again you have failed basic comprehension skills so i'll say it again - it isn't about Kane, Kane will be fine, it is about setting an example in the locker room, making everyone accountable for their actions. 3) I guess we just agree to disagree, I want a professional team that keeps everyone accountable and makes sure every member, no matter how talented works their hardest. You don't want that

I would rather build a contender and be a serious team for a long time than trade every young guy we have to try and win now and then in 3 years be in the toilet for the next 8 years whilst we have to redraft and develop young guys with reasonable contracts. I don't really see the point of getting Kane, he is a one dimensional winger who puts up a ppg. The amount it would take to get him would make the trade not worthwhile. Comparing trading for a UFA-to-be (Kovy) and trading for a a young guy with 2 seasons still on contract (Kane) is ridiculous. Look at what Pominville brought in compared to what Kovy brought in. I like what Minny did - they had a deep pool of prospects and used it to get real talent. We can't do that - tell me how many scoring wingers we have in our prospects? The answer is one - Armia. We have one of the weakest pools in the league in my opinion

He is still a 4th line player. Boston has an awesome 4th line (best in the NHL imo). But it is still just a 4th liner. His best years offensively were in Buffalo. Paille is not a difference maker, he is a role player who works because that whole team is set up so nicely

I wasn't aware Toews had died for those 22 games so Kane was the lone figure in the locker room. My mistake. I now respect Kane for being able to hold that team together during such a period of turmoil. It isn't about him blowing his career away at all - he will probably still be a ppg player, it is about the move robbing Buffalo of all depth/young players and then having our central guy as a selfish partying player. In other words Kane will be fine, the other 19 players will suffer
