FWIW, i played a tournament in Banff years ago when the Jets were having part of their training camp in Banff. When we were outside having beers on our last game, they were running dry land training, and doing laps. Kane was going balls to the wall, but seemed super disinterested in hanging with the team. The team was all doing light jogging, laughing etc with each other, while Kane was ahead of the pack.
On the corollary, Byfuglien lagged behind, and when he passed us, he let out a groan with 'Efff... I effing hate laps..' The guys were ribbing him the whole time. Nothing towards Kane though.
Again, just what i saw. My observations were that Kane looked out of place to what the team was doing.
Also another story. My neighbour plays AAA Bantam, with some kid who's brother played with Kane when he was with Vancouver, and he had heard that while Kane lit it up in the WHL, the whole team hated him for his attitude. Apparently he was an arrogant, me first individual. Anyhow, hearsay, but it kind of goes in line with's said about him.
I'm happy we didn't bring him on and mess with the synergy.
