I hope Kane gets his life together. Not because of any personal affinity, but seeing someone teeter like he is is unfortunate.

I'll bet we can agree that it is a good thing EK9 is no longer a Jet.
Yup absolutely.

Kane's downward spiral isn't pretty to watch, like you say lets hope he gets his life back on track with some help and/or intervention. Right now the guy is a pretty rotten human being!

I am starting to think that guys like Thorburn and maybe even Buff really helped Kane while he was in Winnipeg. His problems have escalated tremendously in Buffalo in such a short time.
I hope he gets his life together. He is a talented guy.

A good lawyer will just keep the inevitable from happening sooner than later which, in my opinion, could be him injuring someone to the point where he will be incarcerated. [MOD]

How could that be? Kane himself said Winnipeg was a "racist" city, and the Jets organization didn't have his back.
While Winnipeg may not be a shining example of black and white brotherhood like a typical US city, I still wouldn't necessarily qualify it as "racist"...

I really don't know how he can claim that when his bud buff is one of the most loved players in winnipeg. As a black person from winnipeg myself, I can say his racist argument is completely unfounded and ridiculous.
Especially with the Bombers honouring Milt Stegall tonight. One of the biggest heroes in Winnipeg's history is a black guy. We love Milt. The thing is, Milt loves us and has always had good things to say about Winnipeg. I'm proud Milt played for Winnipeg. The same can not be said for Kane.

Everybody loves Big Buff as well. He runs the dressing room.
It is kinda of obvious that Buff was the one who did the shower gate on Kane to cool his Jets so to say.... ( Pun intended ). So Kane couldn't play the race card against Ladd or Wheeler.
Just glad he is gone and we got good value on his way out. It would have sucked if he was doing all this off ice crap dropping his trade value while still on the Jets.
I think there is some validity to this argument and at the very least food for thought. Thorburn has been noted in the past as being a positive influence on Kane and trying to guide him. It goes to reason other vets were also patient with Kane until the point he crossed a line that went to far and Buff reacted. In Buffalo he may not have anyone caring what type of *** he makes of himself so left to his own devices it is all spiraling on him.

Any trade that gets Evander Kane out of Winnipeg is a good trade and it made our team much better to not have him in the Jets locker room.
Best trade ever indeed.

The fact Chevy was kind of forced to make a trade , makes this deal even more unbelievable . 
Not surprizing Kane has now played more NHL games without making the playoffs of any active player. I wouldn't want him (locker room cancer) but probably some sucker who will give a first round selection plus extra's to get him near the trade deadline. I was actually impressed with his start this season although has cooled down over the second quarter of the season. Doubt we will see that player again once he signs a new contract.

Kane is the type of guy that could help a team for a playoff run if they are all in. Rental is almost ideal for his toxic personality. What is more interesting is who is going to bend over for EK9’s next contract knowing what they all know now.
Kane was reportedly the Jet who tried hardest to help Setoguchi sober up when he was out of control. I don't want him back but when people boo when his face appears on the Jumbotron during the national anthem that's taking it too far.

it is time Winnipeg got over the whole Kane thing. starting to make us look bush imo.
I don't get all the hate. If we are to boo players who act poorly outside the rink we should have run Bobby Hull out of town I guess. I hope the guy does well to be honest. Just not against us.

Honestly, I don't know why people still care about Kane. He has been off the team for years, and he isn't that prominent a player that it's worth focusing on him, IMO.
