You think Toronto is adding assets like a 1st to take on Kane?
If his contract isn't voided SJ is going to have to pay out their butts to move him and his toxic baggage

Oh yeah, like Evander Kane's personal desires and wishes will even factor into whether he has an NHL future after his suspension.

Shoulda got one game in
I think you missed the unhidden part I was saying. Like Kane wants to be seen as a baller and increase his profile. But he’s not gonna want to do that where the negatives also get played up. Toronto is not a place to do that, especially when it comes to a hockey player.
If he was a soccer player, it could fly under the radar. Hell, he would be fine being a Marlie. But not being a Leaf. That is the last thing he’d want. Nobody cares about the day to day going on about the Marlies and their players that aren’t top prospects. Like, nobody cares if Mac Hollowell is downtown on a Saturday morning at 6am partying like they would if it were Kane.

I would love Kane the player as he is exactly what the Leafs need. Saying that, Kane the egotistical lunatic is unfortunately also included in the deal and that makes it a hard pass.
I gotta say - everyone seems to hate them. But I like the pun titles.
The trade itself is not good though.

Good lord no. Dear good lord this is awful. No to kane under any circumstance and to think toronto would pay A FIRST? Terrible, bad, horriawful. No.

His contract in a hard cap era.
Nobody other than maybe a Pittsburgh even attempts to trade for him at this point. The Sharks are stuck with his contract unless they find a way to Mike Richards him.

The only team that would even make an attempt trading for him, after both SJ and a second team like Detroit takes a healthy part of his contract………
Would be Pittsburgh, playing the Crosby/Malkin can control him card. Toronto would be a hot mess from the day he arrived and the Leafs don’t need that right now.

I almost never comment on threads where people are saying this very very good player has no value but this is honestly the worst trend ("trend" was suppose to be trade but it fits too. There's some delusional virus going around here were people are asking for assets in exchange for Kane.) I've ever seen.
Kane us the most unreadable contract in the NHL and you want a first plus a useful player for him.
I was a big Kane fan and still kinda am but he won't ever play a game in the NHL again. No team is going to welcome him in their locker room and Toronto is probably the last place he should play (maybe Vegas is worse).
Only way he is treaded is to Phoenix or maybe Seattle and you attache multiple 1st and he never laces up there.
His career is over and I find it somewhat sad...

I understand this comparison but don't like it. Kaepernick even if you don't like his political stance (which I support) deserves to be playing in the NFL. He's a top 20 QB who made it to the superbowl as a starter at very early in his career and got completely blackballed for nothing he did that was illegal...
He has shown strength of character right or wrong in anyone's opinion qnd shouldnt be not allowed to continue his career qn less than D'Angelo shouldn't...

Kapernick was every bit of a locker room cancer as Evander Kane. In a lot of ways much, much worse (remember the Beats headphones fiasco? That was a huge red flag and people don't even mention it anymore). And he looked completely washed up his final season.
It’s obvious he has MAJOR issues with teammates as well.
If you think he has even a shred of value you’re lying to yourself

Should I clutch my pearls whole you infighting me about the horrible thing he did with the headphones. Did he steal them or beat someone to death with them?
As a Sharks fan, I would scream "No take-backsies!" and run away laughing.
As a realist, if anyone offered even a fraction of this return, I would be absolutely stunned.
