It really took a special kind of desperation didn't it lul

Lol. It’s a good deal on ice, but a terrible one off ice.

Even on the ice as hes a locker-room cancer. So in fighting/frustration between periods about to rise 90% for the Oilers

Sure he will get you 20 goals (maybe) but the tension in that locker-room could reach boiling points.

Your new 2022 hockey meme

Naming it: "Ken Holland vs. Common Sense"

Kane is the exact type of forward Edmonton needed (on the ice). I wouldn't be surprised if he scores at a 40 goal pace playing with Mcdavid.

Problem is he takes a lot of penalties and with the Oilers goaltending, PK numbers (77% or 23rd in the NHL) and defensive woes...

Could also be a big problem

Kane obviously has issues, but lets not act like this was a bad signing by Holland. He's going to go off in Edmonton, he makes them a better team.

He's also a great pker, when he's not in the box hell provide value...The pro's outweigh the cons, by a lot

I mean he already traded for Keith, so we shouldn’t be surprised when Holland acquired another garbage person.

yeah im just talking about on ice value. Keith has somehow been a good 2nd pairing D this season,

But if hes the one taking penalties how will he be pking lul

As if u look at his Penalty minutes he takes a year....

Yeah Oilers Pk gonna be putting in more work and with their goaltending woes god help them

Everything on Keith came out after he was acquired though

If you look at the 20-21 season stats, he didn't take as many penalties as the previous two seasons. It's not a guarantee he's going to take a lot of penalties.

True but it was kind of funny how he was brought in to be a role model then all that negative news came out lul

Per @DarrenDreger, the Oilers have reached a verbal agreement with Evander Kane. The contract still needs to be signed. pic.twitter.com/FeBLLe0UQt

he won't be wearing #9

You're dying on this hill with penalties but it's pretty much a guarantee his offensive play driving and scoring touch will outweigh any penalties he takes.

The Tampa Bay Lightning have claimed Loui Eriksson off waivers from Anaheim.

Chris Johnston on Insider Trading says the #Yotes are "quite excited about" playing at a new 5,000 seat arena at ASU, mainly cause it's close to where they are looking to build their new arena in Tempe. The league is on board as well with Arizona playing at ASU for 3-4 years.
