and how much "better" is that trade with the Eagles now?

Not saying I'm happy someone is concussed, but wow, that turned out as a steal now

I hate the entire situation. No matter what the outcome is, it's horrible. Either he did it, which means he's a complete scumbag, or the woman is pissed at him and is now saying it wasn't consensual to spite him. It's a really sad situation no matter how you look at it.

Sometimes, its as black and white as this.

But every bit as often, these situations arise because communication isn't perfect, and the situation involves alot of vulnerabilities, and alot of emotion, and there are different understandings about what's happening, EVEN WITHIN THE SAME INDIVIDUAL, before and after.

It's terrifically complicated. And it isn't always one is a scumbag or the other is a spiteful shrew. And, yes, it's always sad.

Last week, we looked at the top three "win-now" teams, who understand their stars are aging and geared up for another run at the Cup. This week, we look at the franchises that are well on their way to being the next Chicago or Tampa Bay -- aka our "win-later" clubs.

The team in the best position to be a championship team in several years is the Buffalo Sabres.

ESPN Insider article, so not much to read for free, but it's pretty cool.

I find the part you posted above the link interesting. I'd love to read the whole article, but I refuse to pay ESPN for anything. I'm already giving them my money by having cable. Isn't that enough?

Oh, I know. I get it. I've definitely done some things before that left me scratching my head wondering what the hell happened. Not to the point that I would feel it's necessary to go to the police though, thankfully.

Sure. Kane gets out of this trouble he's in then:

P. Kane for E. Kane, Reinhart, and #1 pick

- Dannyboy


Pass. pass on every single one of those even one for one.

I do not want Pat Kane near this franchise.

Kiko keeps getting injured. For as great as he is, if he cant stay on the field (Three years in a row with injuries) he is useless.

Hamburg police to make a statement in 10 mins about Kane.

Just got a text from the wife, the victim called 911 from Kane's house and was taken to ECMC that day.

At least that's what the wife said so I don't know where she got it from...

No, but he's still a registered sex offender. I think he's finally past all the stuff that was part of his "sentence" but he's a registered sex offender the rest of his life.

To be fair, there are 16 year olds that can look like they are 20-21. It's not that hard to get a good fake ID either.

Yeap. That bar would be shut down so fast if indeed true.

But all speculation until a statement is released.
