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.

To be fair, when has Kane ever taken responsibility for anything he does, or even doesn't, do?

Thanks Tryamkin!

hate to see an injury that severe but if BFG is using/throwing his weight (literally) around like that ... cleanly i must add ... look the fuck out

Haven't seen the BFG take too many wrong steps so far. The hit on Richardson was pretty innocent.

Whatever he was doing over the first 10 games or so in the press box, maybe Jake should follow the same plan.

Arizona loses on back-to-back nights to Calgary and Vancouver where they never trailed in either of the games.

Never say never. They trailed when it mattered most.

My best wishes to the Andersons at this time. Cancer is such a rotten illness.

From the "I didn't see this coming" file...

Michael Grabner just scored his 11th goal of the season.

I read something this week where he used to apologize to the coaches every time he got a penalty.
They finally had to tell him to stop it and it was ok to be meaner.

Raleigh easily could've been a Nashville-like market had the Hurricanes not gone on a suck streak of epic proportions just as they were building a fan base in the mid-aughts.

Having said that, unless the new owner is content with losing money for a few years in return for breaking even or making a modest profit afterward, this team is gone.

I agree totally with that but what also helps Nashville (like it will in Vegas) is they are tourist destinations, not sure Raleigh could have become that.
