  1. I don't mind it since he is in the final year of his contract. Hopefully they just use him as a trade chip at the deadline… sadly this awful management group will probably extend him

  2. No real comment on the trade but, as an Oiler fan who was vehemently opposed to acquiring Kane, I was wrong. Kane owes the Oilers nothing. I have not heard anything that indicates he was a problem in the Oiler's locker room these past few seasons. I hate to see him go and I wish him the best. Finally, he was neutralized somewhat in the Cup Finals by poor officiating. If he deserved the penalties he received, and I can agree they were penalties but, that being the case they were numerous calls that should also have been called against Florida but were not. How Bennett got away with what he got away with is inexcusable.

  3. So much respect for Bob Stauffer for giving his honest and glowing praise of Evander. Kane is a unicorn because he is a true power forward. He can hit, he plays hard with grit, he goes into the corners, he is a fast skater, he’s never takes shifts off and he can fight with the heavyweights, and he can score and sticks up for his teammates and he does lots of charity work. Hes the very definition of a power forward. No one else in the league that has his attributes except Tom Wilson. Wilson and Kane are true unicorns

  4. The only guy who cost the Oilers the cups these two years is NOT Kane. It was mcdavid. If Mcdavid showed up for game 7 last year and showed up this years finals, the oilers would have 2 cups.

  5. The degree of tire pumping going on here has my head about to explode!!
    I do like Bob, but this deal is an easy win for EDM and a MASSIVE gamble by VAN.

  6. Trent Frederick expected to replace Kane? Not from what I’ve seen of him. Kane is a great package all around.

  7. So sick of all you 🐱Canucks fans who always get overly emotional. Stfu please, you will all love him the first time he defends QH or Petey after a cheap shot.

  8. Canucks fan are the worst fans in sports history, there's nothing like them, also very delusional into thinking Hughes and Pettersson are good enough to carry this team to a cup.
    Hughes and Pettersson were both ghost players vs Oilers, bullied by Hyman, Perry, Draisaitl and McDavid. Without Miller, Lindholm, Zadorov, Boeser, Garland, Cole who carried throughout the 2024 playoff, this is a Make-A-Wish team at best and that's being generous
    Also, Marchand crosschecked Hughes in December because he owes him money for his Dairy Queen intake.
    Fact: Matthew 'Toxic' Tkachuk has 2 more cups than Olli Juolevi and the entire Canucks franchise of 55 years with 0 cups

  9. The Oilers got a FOURTH round pick to dump kane. He.s is a POS, the biggest cheap shot artist, will never fight and can divide any locker room faster than any player in the league. What a LOSER

  10. Nice so many oiler fans on here pacifying Canuck fans- feel so much better now about acquiring Kane

  11. Canuck fans have been begging for a tough winger and now we got a good one for cheap.
    Not sure how anyone can whine about this.

  12. That was 100% a PR job. Not one strong question. Sad..Surprised Donnie didn't apologize for not being woke enough or being ashamed to like body checking.

  13. I like how they got Evander Kane, especially for a fourth round draft pick I think it was a great deal for the Canucks because there’s no way it’s gonna hurt the Canucks. They’re now tougher and I think him being in Bangor he might actually get his game back.

  14. Who is that guy?? Am I watching D&D or an episode of The Sopranos? šŸ˜‚
    PS : possibly the first time in my life ive heard the phrase 'A lost fart'. Today, everything's coming up Milhouse!
    Disclaimer : I'm not 9 years old. Thank you, that is all.

  15. I loved Evander Kane, I will continue to follow him hereinafter, he was awesone here in Edmonton, VANCOUVER YOU WILL TRULY ENJOY EVANDER KANE. HE IS HARD WORKER, FAST, TOUGH, EXCELLENT ATTITUDE AND GIVES IT ALL EVERY NIGHT, I HATE WE LOST HIM.

  16. I was concerned about the locker room, it sounds like he has matured (like we all do) but he could very well be exactly what the Nucks need. Insiders have long known he is hands down the toughest guy in the league. He is also a smart player that plays better with smarter players. He could be could be a magic elixir for the team…He has one year left on the contract – it sounds like a good opportunity for the team. and him. I love Boesser, but Kane he has the potential to do everything Brock does and more. Lets hope he can stay healthy.

  17. Moving out money to sign Bouchard? Seriously? Wake up, the Oilers won’t win a cup with BouchBlunder on the team.

  18. I don't get it. Why would you get Evander Kane. Why?
    Does it make a difference between a cup or not?
    No.

  19. Not happy to see this at all. Already involved in an altercation here too..maybe didn't do anything wrong but clearly the people here are not happy
