Contract Termination: Evander Kane

[wonton15]

I could see a desperate team taking him on for like a million. Calgary could use some offense and he's close to home.

 

[VijayPatel11]

Uh, no....

Uh, yes!!!

The arbitrator has the power to reinstate a contract. Really depends on what remedy the PA would want to pursue if they win the grievance. Reinstate, or receive some form of compensation and leave the contract terminated.

You would have to think that a settlement and opportunity to sign another contract would be what Kane would want, no?

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

No way that's going to fly. This is 100% going to arbitration.

I have to assume he and the NHLPA will fight it.

Maybe but how many violations and warnings do you get? He's breached his contract what at least two times now?

Lawsuit incoming lol

zero chance he wins nething.

he definitively broke the contract.

the law > NHLPA

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

leafs should take a gamble on kane

kane? is that you?

the court will decide that not the internet?

Did they say what he did this time ? If he was partying with other team members with out wearing a mask or something similar and those team mates aren't facing the same punishment the Sharks may have a problem .

What rock have you been under? LoL

Got covid Dec 21st. Was supposed to quarantine until 12/31 when he was supposed to report to the team. Flew to Vancouver on Dec 29th while he was still subject to the AHL 10 day quarantine rule. Reported to the team 1/6 a week after he was supposed to.

IS it likely in your opinion that the Sharks would incur a cap hit if they were to compensate Kane?

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

He should do a reality show where he lives in Vegas and tries not to gamble… call it “Kane’s Not Able”

Personally waiting for the reality show starring the adventures of his new wife: Kandy Kane

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

You'd think that getting waived after leading your team in scoring would be enough for him to take a step back and reevaluate the things he did to put himself in that situation, but nope, he just had to go out and triple down on that shit.

Can't say I feel sorry for him.

So he bet and lost? Weird.

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

Uh, yes!!!

Sure, if you don't like the franchise doing well and succeeding.

would think he is hoping for the latter

the Kings do for Richards, right?

 

[ChuckNorris4Cup]

 

[Eyeseeing]

Cap implications?

Only for Kane’s knees if the NHLPA loses

 

[RunItBackAgain]

Finally. Like actually, finally.

 

[Tempo]

This guy just keeps sinking deeper and deeper.

I honestly don’t see him live past 40 if he doesn’t start to mature.

 

[Byron Bitz]

He’s gonna get knocked out by Jake Paul

 

[stator]

Kings made out on that settlement with Richards. They got out of a bad contract that wasn't going to age well at all. Instead, they have a cap hit of under $1m/yr. And only pay him about half of the remaining contract value.

Richards played one more with the Caps, and did not make an impact.

I'm sure the Sharks organization wouldn't mind something similar. If they can get Vlasic to retire on LTIR, that's icing on the cake.

 

[Sweetpotato]

So his contract is terminated, but would a successful NHLPA grievance result in the reinstatement of his contract?

They have the power to reinstate but there is 0% chance that would happen. Either he's SOL or he'll be reimbursed to the level they see fit.

That’s not how contracts work and this will go to arbitration if they don’t settle.

 

[Guttersniped]

And the Sharks have a cap hit for the money.

Are you saying he gets reimbursed and it counts against the cap?

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Are you saying he gets reimbursed and it counts against the cap?

That's the most likely outcome.
