NHLers: We have a cocaine problem.
Evander Kane: Hold my casino chips
Las Vegas casino sues NHL’s Evander Kane over $500K in gambling markers
Gambling issues can easily be worse than drug issues.

There was an article posted earlier in the thread about how coke and molly have become very apparent in NHL circles.

Perhaps Kroenke will offer to pay Kane’s tab and in return Kane demands a trade. Kane has NTC where he picks 3 teams he’s willing to go to. Those teams are Colorado, Anaheim and LA.

We should have tried harder to get the German out of Edmonton when Chiarelli was there. @cgf

Mcdavid drives the net with speed like nobody else in the NHL. I wish Nathan would do this instead of button hooking and making a bad pass to a teammate or the opposition.

Honestly, I'm surprised we aren't seeing more of these big hits. Players are trying to make plays with the puck at high speed all over the ice, because they don't really expect to get hit anymore. They leave themselves vulnerable all the time.
I get really nervous for a few guys on the Avs, but I don't want to tempt fate by naming them.

For sure. Nathan sucks at using his speed. Why can’t he blow by a defender more often? Also, it seems like he’s never on a breakaway.
1. Multiple accusations of sexual assault
2. Has tangled with the law on multiple occasions
3. Apparently doesn't pay his tabs, either at restaurants or casinos
4. Thinks Floyd Mayweather is cool
5. Alienated teammates in both of his previous stops, and in both instances those teammates took physical action against him
6. Injury prone
7. On-ice play doesn't move the needle nearly as much as it did in his earlier years
8. Locked into a very risky contract that'll likely be bad in a couple years

I dislike Mayweather as much as the next guy, but I get the appeal to some.
He forced his way out of his promoter to work for himself, got paid more than anyone else by making everyone want to watch him lose, and went undefeated by picking his opponents at the right time. He basically beat the game.
As a human being though he's a POS.

You're forgetting a bunch of stuff, here's a little help (and that was just with the Jets, it was as bad or worse with the Sabres)
A timeline of Evander Kane 'episodes' with Jets - Sportsnet.ca
That same week Kane’s “business manager” Jeffrey Uppal had been approaching restaurants in the Winnipeg area requesting $500 for his client in exchange for positive promotional tweets from Kane’s Twitter account.
LOL
Also he was apparently often flying private in Buffalo and paid out of pocket. I'm certain that he doesn't have a penny left 2 years after retirement. It's also possible that he didn't pay his gambling debts because he didn't have the money. Dude was high rolling in casinos during the playoff series vs the Knights while the team was in Vegas. He's a POS.
Getting Ryan O'Reilly for practically nothing will do that for ya.
