The wife and I were just at Safeway on Granville and 70 th getting the 5 gallon water jugs filled. It's summer so you need to Hydrate. As I look up I see this tall Mulatto guy about 6'2 or 6'3 in real muscular shape. I thought the guy from the side looks like Evander Kane. He turned around and sure enough it was him . He knew I recognized him so he turned quickly away shyly ,so he wouldn't attract attention. His beautiful blonde girlfriend smiled . I told the wife loud enough so that he could hear " hey that's Evander Kane and said he plays in the NHL . She said so he must be good . I said he is very good and I sure hope he comes to play on the Canucks. His girlfriend then broke out in a big grin. They were hugging like young lovers.

I think being in Vancouver would be a great thing for him. He has his family and fiancé and just 20 minutes ago looked like a young man smitten by a very hot model.

You can thank me later if he comes here.

I can also definitely confirm that yes indeed he is in Vancouver today.

You should have told Kane, "I'd ask for your autograph but I don't think I could afford it."

oh, so if my trade proposal doesn't meet your unknown standards then it's called trolling?

last i checked forums area a place for debate, or are we all supposed to fall in place and accept the conventional wisdom, like hillary supporters are demanding from bernie's people

Oh stop your cry babying........we all know you're a troll....your defensive reaction validates it.....

He'd probably be ok with it but with the negative press right now surrounding himself might be tentative.

The NHL guys at the pro camps at my Arena in the summer are usually pretty good with autographs and photos and such with the public.

Sutter, Russell, Postma and even Glencross when he was playing here at the camps were always great with the public.

Aren;'t most ppl right handed, but shoot left?
i am.

I'm right handed and shoot right...

But you're correct, usually only lefties shoot right. I noticed this when getting autographs from Brett Hull and Linden, both signed with left hand.

Doesn't Kane live in Vancouver off-season?

I'd be surprised if they let him out of the US if he was put under arrest. Flight risk?

Not sure if you're serious but there wouldn't be travel restrictions on a misdemeanour.

He was charged with NON criminal charges.....I'm assuming people know that's not a criminal offence.

Let me play GM here. First Here are my projected Expansion protects:

Hank
Dank
Eriksson
Horvat
Sutter
Baertschi
Hansen

Edler
Tanev
Gudbranson

Markstrom

Evander Kane. I would only consider this option if:

1 - It's at a highly discounted price
2 - I've approached my leadership core and got their approval. I know I'm the boss, but I'm not bringing in this type of player, unless they agree to mentor him. Last thing I want is a bad room.
3 - I'm not trading any of my expansion protects or top prospects.

That's where the discount comes in. If I don't get him on the cheap, it ain't happening. So if it's Sbisa, Gaunce and a 3rd or god forbid 2nd. Ok.

You would think Buffalo could do better somewhere else. But maybe not. Who would take him now?

So if we land Kane. What happens to our expansion protect list? Who do we not protect? Or will another mid season trade solve that?

I havn't been drinking tonight. It's 35m until Tuesday.

Just wanna hear feedback. Especially when it comes to our protect list. Cause right now we're fine (unless Rodin shines)

I don't know if they need to protect Sutter.

Unless he has a great season, his salary is high for a middle six C.

If was picked, no big deal. Horvat is the #2 C for the foreseeable future.... if not this coming year, then by 17/18 for sure.
They still need to address a future #1.
Bottom 6 C's are available every summer for less than Sutter's cap hit.

There are enough ELC guys on the roster who are exempt that we will basically be able to offer up players who have questionable contracts and force Vegas to take one off the books for us.
