he also stormed into a local pizza joint last night demanding free pizza because hes patrick kane…

has someone checked to see if he is in any way related to the wirtz’s

“According to the police report, both Kanes took their money back and punched the cabbie in the face and head.”

“Kane, a Buffalo native, had attended a press conference with the mayor to announce funding for a local rink earlier in the evening.

WGRZ.com says the driver appeared to have suffered cuts to his face as well as damage to his glasses.

Buffalo’s WIVB is reporting that an attorney for the Kanes has entered a plea of not guilty in City court."

Did we have this conversation already?

Heh, mine was climbing a castle wall in Germany. I loved freestyle climbing, and those Hefe Wissen can convince you of anything. I didn’t realize it was a felony ’til the politzei caught up with me at the top. I won the 1 Mark bet though, (about 50 cents)

As I am tipping back a 20th Anniversry Sleeman’s while watching the NHL network’s “Tribute to J.R.” as they are showing the Hawks run to the Stanley Cup Final in 1992, on my birthday no less, I just turn the channel for a split second to the Jays game on Rogers Sportsnet and low and behold what do I see-THIS!
I cannot for the life of me believe what happened! Forget about ‘the summer of discontent’, how about ‘the summer of torture’. Just another chapter in the P.R. mess of the Chicago Blackhawks summer of 2009. Everyone collectively must be shaking their heads in disbelief over what has happened this summer.
As for Patrick Kane, this kid needs to grow up and NOW! There is no need for this type of behaviour 20-yrs. old or not. True I’ve done some pretty stupid things over my lifetime but never disrespect or punch-out another person over a little dispute especially in a case where someone was doing me a favour. I think anyone who went to the Convention can agree that Kane seemed a little arrogant, and with that it seems his attitude has finally caught up to him. Patrick has not only let himself, his family, his teammates, the organization in which he is employed by down, but most importantly the young fans that adore and most likely idolize him as well. Will he serve jail time? Doubtful, but community service? Most likely, and it would be pretty ironic that his community service would include in the help of restoring and improving his own community rink.
In the end, hopefully this serves as a life-learning lesson for Patrick Kane that will in the end help correct his attitude and ultimately make him a better person for life is funny in ways that it sometimes can humble you and in Patrick’s case hopefully it has.

seems more like something that would have happened when Fluery was on the team….

Well, there goes whatever cap problem we may have had next offseason.

Do I see a resemblance to the Great Theo Fleury? (minus the cocaine……or not who the hell knows)

Do I smell my hair burning?

1) Tallon would never have let this happen….

2) If it was Kaner who puched the guy, MANDATORY flask of booze before puck drop. That should help him be a little more physical. (worked for most of the guys I played hockey with….)

3) quote,

A torn $5 bill was found in James Kane’s pocket while in the Erie County Holding Center, the report said.

Hmmmmm. I wonder who the douchebag is…..

College-age kid does stupid thing…Red Wings fans called assholes?

How did we get dragged into this? I don’t go calling Buckeyes a bunch of douches* every time a Michigan player makes an ass of himself.

The Dave thing — Dave being the Der Untertan for all Detroiters — seems a bit uncalled for, man. Unless Dave is real, in which case, you need better friends in Detroit. Has Dave ever taken you to Slow’s when you visited? No? Then dump Dave.

That all being said, funny pic, and if you’re in the market for some friendly extra-rivalric advice from someone who lives and dies with college football, don’t condone, but also don’t take the actions of an over-adulated 21-year-old athlete too seriously.

• even if it’s true

I doubt I’ll make many friends on this site with this, but I don’t care how drunk he was, this is a good indication Kane has a brain the size of a fucking chestnut, and that scares the shit out of me.

Another reason why if you’re young, famous and a hockey player you don’t go to bars in Buffalo—or anywhere else for that matter—at 4 in the morning with your cousin.

Whatever REALLY happened, Pat Kane was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Everybody seems ready to judge the kid without knowing the facts. That said, the legal system will determine what happens next.

One thing is certain.

Mr. Kane showed bad judgment in exposing himself to this kind of situation.

and I seriously doubt the legal system we have will cast any more light on this. It’s gonna be settled/pleaded, whatever. Too many people have too much money riding on Kane to let him look bad.

I forgot to say, I don’t get why people think pro-athletes should necessarily be people to emulate. Many other professions have good role models to be found, it’s a shame people “look up” to athletes merely due to their famousness.

Who’s ready for EVERY nationally televised game next season with CONSTANT comments about “adversity”, “off-ice controversy”, blah, blah BLAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! Every. Single. Game.

I can’t wait.

QFT!
