If the Blackhawks are cutting ties with him for those reasons, why on earth would the flames go after him if they are just going to do the same thing. The NHL will cut ties with him if he keeps it up. This thread hurts my brain and I thought I was the one who always made the dumb posts... (Noon)

While I agree with the sentiment of your post, the statement about the NHL cutting ties with him is simply not close to realistic. Unless he is found guilty of a "major" crime (and the one he's being currently investigated for is of course major) then there will always be a home for Kane somewhere in the NHL. Or at least there will be while he's still one of the best in the game. Just a reality of life, you get away with more, if you can deliver something somebody somewhere values.
I would just hope that the Flames' Values don't align themselves with what Kane seems to represent at this point, and I certainly hope the Flames don't feel they are desperate enough at this point in time to need to sacrifice on their values for on ice results.
