WildCard Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Couldn't have just choked Franson to the IR huh? Dammit Kane. I know he's not anything to write home about but come on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 His short lived career with the Sabres is over. He will never play another game for the Sabres and they are better for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly don't want that kind of influence on the kids. But don't think murray will get rid of him yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattPie Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 You just judged him b4 we even learn more about what occurred. You judged him as a woman beater. That's not an accusation I'd make lightly. As to the NHL team crap you're trying to spew, I don't even live in NY but yea sure, I work for the Sabres PR. They pay me 100k not to live near my team but post about how great everyone on the team is. Sunnova, I need to talk to Stan; there's no way I should be making less than you with the seniority I have over you you little punk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kishoph Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Kane pretty obviously can be a douchebag. That's about all anyone here knows. The rest of this threatens to be another "let's project all my preconceived notions into a passionate argument about an incident I know very little about" thread, much like the Patrick Kane debacle of last summer. Meanwhile, no is talking about Kyle Okposo. Why, who did he grope ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaryl Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) I don't think it's liquor that does it to him. I've done my share of recreational substances in my life. You name it I've done it.. The fact is the only time I ever did or ever witnessed shady regrettable actions in all those decades of partying was when alcohol was involved. never ever have I ever witnessed or seen anyone using other substances without alcohol act like a douche. Douche personality always comes out when alcohol is being consumed in mass quantities. SO I disagree 200% with your statement based upon decades of experience . He may be using other substances but it was the abundance of Alcohol that turns a person into an instant dick. Now its quite possible other substances helped him consume more alcohol quickly but in the end it was the alcohol IMO Edited July 8, 2016 by ddaryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPre Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) It's better than most, I'll give you that. As for the employees, it's their job to sway public opinion in a positive direction. Those doing their hardest to defend Kane in this thread are your first clue as to who's who. Not all of them, probably. But then again maybe. I think it's fair to say that a reasonable person would be a little annoyed at Kane at this point, not making excuses for him. If posters are exerting a lot of energy in defending him, I'd say it's pretty suspicious. If they are trying to spin this in a positive light, that's even more curious. So no, it's not OK. These people act as though they are fans, but are employed to influence your opinions. They are not fans and they are not your friends. I'm frankly disgusted by them and they know who they are, and they hate me equally. Many use multiple accounts, and even reply and agree with each other. I saw it a couple times in this thread. I won't call them out in order to avoid a firestorm. But I assure you this is the status quo on every sports board. I think I'm going to make it a tradition to come back to this board every time Kane gets in trouble to kick the posters/PR reps who called me racist in the gut a bit. Conspiracy theorist? Wear tinfoil? Right now that wouldn't surprise me. Edited July 8, 2016 by GoPre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 I am pretty sure Kaner doesn't drink alcohol...maybe he should start? Does anyone think he starts the season in a Sabres' uni? Thorny? Huckleberry, why do you think Murray won't trade him? Not sure what Duff's wings are but rarely eat chicken and I don't see Laine going anywhere for the next decade or so. I am pretty sure the Nucks would take a chance on him...the Jets, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 I think Kane is on the trade block. Since that trade facilitated getting Eichel via the tank I'm not complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) I don't really care. I just want to watch some hockey. I agree. Between the hostility in the political thread and this thread, this place is getting rather bitter and uninviting. I'd rather the hostility be concentrated on GDT's. :D Edited July 8, 2016 by JJFIVEOH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray won't trade him for scraps, and as long as the investigation is hanging over his head, no other GM will give a decent return for him. He still is a 20 goal scorer who plays the game right, could be a 30 goal scorer if his aim wasn't off :p Edited July 8, 2016 by Huckleberry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree. I think the internet affects people in a social sense. People in isolation will come to a different position, even if they do research, in isolation, than if they they chat about it with friends and enemies on the internet. I think people become more irrationally entrenched more quickly as a result of social media influences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well hold onto him for the expansion draft if the price is lousy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
