Looks like Stamkos is out 4-6 months. Tough break such a talent but seems to always be injured.

I'm not sure that's entirely fair, this will actually be just the second season (out of nine) that he's missed more than 5 games.

That stinks and it looks like Gaudreau is out 6 weeks and Hornqvist is out indefinitely with a concussion.

Give me Kane!!! I'll take a reclamation project on JT's wing!!!!
I wouldn't want Kane anywhere near a major city.

He's an hour from Toronto and still managed to get in shit by hiring a helicopter to fly him there to party lol. Imagine what being a bridge away from Manhattan will do to him...

Aren't most hockey clubs near major markets or at the very least, near a city? He could probably get in equal amount of trouble in Nashville or AZ.....

His larger point stands though.

In fact, at home, you barely even need to score twice. The team has scored 8 goals in 7 home games so far this season. I know that can't last, but that's some historically pathetic scoring so far.

Those aren't really "party" towns (well, Nashville is but I'm not sure it's the kinda scene Evander would be interested in). It's more that the two markets he's played pro hockey in so far have been Winnipeg and Buffalo, neither of which anyone would call towns with much of a party scene. Or breathable air.

He's gotten in trouble partying in his hometown of Vancouver. He's gotten in trouble partying in Toronto. Those are the kinds of cities, like NY, like LA, where he would probably go full Manziel.

Not Arizona, because everything is apparently way too far from everything else.


I wouldn't mind him in Columbus, but only to break up the monotony of stories about OSU football players breaking every law known to man. A change of pace, y'know?

I don't think it's the fact he's wrong (because he isn't), but more that he didn't put any of it on himself. When you're pulling $5.25 mil per and you have 1 pt in 6 games, that shit's largely on you.
