Rumor: San Jose trying to trade Evander Kane

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Thats extreme. Its not a felony to break your employment contract or ignore your family. As far as anyone can tell he hasnt committed any crimes.

Well I was partially joking and I’m sure we probably will never know the full story anyways, it’ll be interesting to see if he plays again

NHL got on this one fast

 

[EpochLink]

They should trade him to FLA for Bobrovsky. Its gonna take one of the worst contracts in the league, plus its been reported that FLA is likely to go with Knight as their starter next season.

Bobrovsky got paid and then checked out.
What a shit contract.

Kane for Bobrovsky?

I mean worst case scenario they win all their games and loses all his bets.

 

[OilersCoffeeArtBeer]

Koskinen + Kassian for Kane(50 percent retained)

 

[Crazy Joe Divola]

I’m hearing he’s been traded to the Lakers

Koskinen + Kassian for Kane(50 percent retained)

 

[Eggtimer]

If I was a betting man I’d say he either gets his contract terminated or he rots in SJ’s organization somewhere . Yes , the first part I wrote was a very very lame joke that is hopefully lame enough to be somewhat funny

 

[Larry Hanson]

I'm sure it's been mentioned already but he has a 3 team NTC, Probably the 2 other California teams and Vegas I bet, maybe the Rangers. Good luck finding a deal.

They should have exposed him in the expansion draft, I'm sure they would have if they knew the crap storm that was coming.

Marcus Petterson 4-4025 million for Kane 50 percent retained we get some truculence

 

[Artorius Horus T]

To Atlanta Thrashers?

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Skinner for Kane

 

[Jeune Poulet]

They're not going to find a taker.

The only reason Kane isn't already suspended by the league is because of optics.

 

[Arthuros]

Regardless of whether the allegations are true or false, this guy's not worth the pain in the ass.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

They’re not retaining 50% on Kane. People asking for that kind of retention are nuts. There’s a reason why no team has done anything close to retaining like that. Why would the Sharks carry 3.5 mil in dead money for four years when they can get rid of him for less dead money most of that time or just bury him?

 

[razor ray]

I’m surprised anyone wants him on their team.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I’m surprised anyone wants him on their team.

This rumor was referring to prior to the league investigating him. I’m sure there’s no trade to be done while that is happening.

Evander Kane buyout calculator, cap hit impact | Puckpedia

buy out numbers incase anyone is interested.

A very close friend of mine went to school with his sister. Very solid hard working person despite the fact at the time, Kane was a NHL player. A typical Canadian, that just wanted to graduate from High school, proceed to go to Post secondary and get job and career. Typical idea of a "poorer" Canadian Family as Kane actually came from not super poor but he did not come from a rich family.

It is quite sad to see what Evander has become today. I hope he fix his attitude fast.

 

[Buresflyingelbow]

Good luck with that one!

 

[Henkka]

Skinner for Kane

This.

Both retended 50%.

Skinner with only 4.5M will look much less bashable in Sharks cap numbers and same for 3.5M E.Kane at Buffalo. Even though the truth would be "8M Skinner" and "8M Kane".

This would be the easiest way to fool media/cap freaks.

 

[jonlin]

I reckon Buffalo will do a 1 for 1. Skinner - Kane...

 

[garmonbozia]

Nobody said Vegas yet?

I assume you mean as a joke, and am sure the Golden Knights would have little interest...but, I have to think if any place has an abundance of people who could help with a gambling addiction issue it's got to be Las Vegas, right?

 

[Groo]

Another long night at HF

 

[JAK]

Kane has 4 years/7m left on his deal, that’s not a player a team will take and sit for assets and the Sharks wouldn’t offer the assets it takes to get done. (Like their 1st for instance.)

It all depends how badly the Sharks wants to rid themselves of the association.

 

[BlueSeal]

Sharks should look into voiding his contract stat.

 

[BB88]

They should trade him to FLA for Bobrovsky. Its gonna take one of the worst contracts in the league, plus its been reported that FLA is likely to go with Knight as their starter next season.

You don’t add Kane to your locker room.
