I know this is an E=NG thread and I am not ardently defending Evander Kane, but I do think it's important not to focus on one side on this particular subject. The one thing that is 100% verifiable in the letter above is that Kane did get sole custody of his daughter.

Also verifiable is he's been run out of multiple dressing rooms and he's an Oiler. So he's a dick.

Also just learning on Twitter that CHI has been scouting the Oilers and they are trading Kane for a 1st and B prospect and retaining 50%.

How clueless are these morons?

Oh no, they would also take Puljujarvi or Barrie and a third team would take the additional cap hit for a mid round pick

They've been touting their 3 way unicorn deals forever now. Last year it was going to be Kassian as part of the bad money out for MAF or Price. They are so delusional as to what they have to offer and how savvy their GM is it would be sad if the whole place didn't smell like a toilet.

According to them PK will force Chicago's hand by saying it's the only place he will go so it will be PK (and usually a good cost controlled asset) for 2 bad contracts and a 1st and maybe low end prospect. Arizona then takes the cap hit for a 3rd if they are feeling generous but usually a 4th. Or they go all in and say Arizona will retain and include Chychrun for a 2nd round pick, someone like Barrie, and a low end prospect. How they can look at how badly they fleeced themselves on the Duncan Keith trade with the same team and think somehow they are going to take advantage of Chicago for a player many more teams will be in on and will be more desired by that player.

So with all these others odds coming out, David Staples had to write an article about Greg Wyshysnski predicting the Oilers win, and then go on to demonstrate he has a very limited understanding of how odds or even math really works.

He believes the Oilers have a 1 out of 4 chance of winning the Cup. He believes Avs have a 1.5 out of 4 chance of winning the Cup, and all other teams combined have a 1.5 out of 4 chance of winning, whatever the hell that means. He also says this team wins the Cup in one out of 3 seasons, whatever the hell that means.

Their odds of winning the Cup this year. One out of four, I’d say. In one out of three seasons, this team would win the Cup. I’d say it’s 1.5 out of 4 for the Avs, with 1.5 out of four for all the other teams combined

Lol. How does any rational human being look at that garbage heap of a roster and think that they're Cup favorites? These assclowns are beyond delusional.

"preseason vezina" skinner put up a glowing .839 against van's nhl roster. yeah, expect a lot more of those 5-4 losses this year
