Apparently Edmonton has interest in Kane because, why not.

Holland believes in "second" chances...second?

Yeah so by that logic Buffalo took care of that already.

Time for the Leafs to hire Sundin.

He likes to drive his Rolls around Swedin. 

While I think that would be cool, I get the impression that he?s not interested in that kind of work. Or living here.

Character issues with Kane aside, Edmonton is probably the right kind of team to take a chance on him.  Their team is in a free fall and has major problems.  They are cap strapped with a mediocre roster propped up by two phenomenal offensive players.  Kane is a way for them to improve their depth (although is he even vaccinated at this point?).

I don't know why the NHL would allow a guy who keeps forging documents around his vaccination status to be eligible for league play.
 
Nazem Kadri, 4th in league scoring, 2nd in scoring per game, on pace for 131 points this season... not invited to the All-Star Game.

Also, pretty good time for Kadri to become a free agent this summer eh.

Can we just stop with the All-Star game then?

I would have bet a lot of money that the All-Star game would have been cancelled...the NHL is actually going to put all their best players in dressing rooms and on the ice together?

This just seemed like a no-brainer to me.
 
It really is remarkable the extent to which they've devalued the all-star game. What's worse is that because you don't really have the right group of players there it also makes the only thing about the all-star game that worked, the skills challenge, worse because you don't have the right guys there.

Other leagues' all-star games suck but at least they've remained a good gauge of who the best players in the league are. The NHL can't even really manage that.

I?m not interested in the article at all, I just love the headline.

The headline suggested they would be roshamboing this, so I'm mildly disappoint.
 
I think Brathwaite is the giveaway. He's almost 50.

Young guns and past their primers wouldn't be bad for entertainment value though. I'd rather watch that then the team they sent to Korea.
