Late on this but icymi. This was just 5 days ago …of course its from Mark Spector lmao

Finally settled — in hockey and life — Kane in for the long haul with Oilers

As he begins his third season in Edmonton, and the second year of a four-year, $20.5 million deal, it appears as if the Oilers got the player that Atlanta drafted. That Buffalo traded for, that San Jose signed.

Which isn't even all that bad - hardly the only d-man with some bad defensive habits.

The problem is when 4 other blue liners on the team also have bad defensive habits.

0.853 save % seems pretty good (for the Oilers)

He made a few saves after the 5th Preds goal to bump it up a bit (it was around .830 I think right after the final Nashville tally).
