Just regular old run of the mill off ice issues that everyone has. Just unlucky to be so much in the spotlight.

I have a feeling a lot of posters are going to be spending a lot of time in Nicaragua for the foreseeable future.

A few losses and that locker room is probably a house of cards.

Kane looking at Kassian, Nurse, Draisaitl, or Smith the wrong way after leaving the ice on a jersey toss-type night?

The permutations that lead to destruction are endless.

It doesn't alter anything for impressions. I don't care if Kane makes poor decisions in his personal life. Maybe some people like the off ice drama more, but I don't care. Most of the talk of moral high grounds that comes from orgs is just to help them appeal to the widest possible fanbase.
Do you feel this addresses a team need? Is this where the limited cap space should be directed?

Default Oilers sign Evander Kane (1 yr, $2.1 million full season cap hit, NMC)

Up there with the great mystery of how the Sharks were able to terminate his contract after he was cleared of COVID wrongdoing, is how Kane and his girl have never heard of birth control. Like wtf

wow - I thought the reference to “paid” was just that he paid medical bills for an abortion arising from an affair. This is much worse. What a loser.

Kane seems to unite every dressing room he’s been a part of…..against him. So perhaps this is a bizarre team building exercise.

First post in six weeks. What happened to you? Better yet, what happened in between that time to the Oilers and what has happened over the past week to make you come back?

If anyone had any doubts about what a piece of #### organization the Oilers are...

Evander Kane has a history of not meshing with his team's leadership group. It happened in Winnipeg and in Buffalo and in San Jose. He shows no contrition. Makes no apologies. McDrai will turn on this guy so fast unless he has changed how he deals with his teammates off and on the ice. I doubt he's changed anything though. He doesn't believe that he's the problem.

This doesn't do much to help Edmonton...But It makes the BOA a hell of a lot more interesting.

Tippet's reaction is priceless to finding out Kane is in the lineup tomorrow night.
I thought the coaches made those decisions. Guess not.

They can't even do press conferences correctly. Consistent no-goodness.

Tippey’s brain: don’t react, don’t react, don’t react! Just one more good losing streak and I can get back to Seattle.

Yeah I was surprised too. It seemed a bit off script. Plus I’m sure Tippet would’ve preferred not showing his lineup until the game.
