My two teams made deals at the deadline for two "streaky" players: Columbus got Vanek and Sharks got Kane.
When Kane is on, he is the better player, no doubt. But I've noticed the difference is when they are NOT good.
Vanek is just....invisible. You would have no idea he was on the ice. "He played 16 minutes?" But Kane....when he isn't good, he can have games where he is just BAD. He was BAD last night.
No doubt anyone would take Kane, but that the risk with him.
He's obviously playing hurt though, think its his shoulder.
