Funny enough… I grew up with a good friend of mine back in high school. He got into hockey very early and everyone believed he was on his way to the NHL some day. One day on a walk, I’m on Main (back in the 90’s it was contained). And some dude begs for change, sketching out on me. It was Michael. My heart still goes out to him today wherever he is, if he’s still with us… 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt they’d even put up much of a fight on his behalf. He can try and fight it in the courts. Good luck though. 52 minutes ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: You can't pick and choose who you represent and stand up for. To be honest this whole ordeal is kind of BS. We got slapped with the full penalty for the Luongo contract. I'm not happy seeing Sharks just get out under this 7 mil/year contract without any repercussions.

Has there ever been a termination of an NHL player due to not following AHL rules? is that really in the spirit of the collective agreement? I wonder if thats even been covered or if this is new ground. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 21 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Correct. How hard you fight for certain players is a different story. True, but they have to hold their noses and fight this one for all its worth. They can't let a precedent be set that any violation of some policy is considered a material breach of contract. Teams would start using it more and more to escape paying players. The union has already signalled its intent to fight the move. My guess it some settlement will be made for some significant portion of Kane's salary which will be charged to the Sharks cap. He would have to have tested positive for Covid, falsified the results, and then went around licking the rest of his team mates for a $22+ million dollar contract to just get voided with no consqiences. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It matters if people are unvaxxed as they are more likely to use the hospital ERs and ICU units. Oh wow... go read the definition of a vaccine. You should be immunized after getting the jab. And don’t say « it was never meant to stop people from getting covid » because severals months ago it was EXACTLY, word by word, what they say. and for Kane again way too much cdc judges, without any info. Give him the right to defend himself. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyotasfan Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Kane is planning to fight his termination, starting with filing a grievance with the NhLPA. I would think the ruling will go against him, the Sharks have lots of legal ammunition. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The variants on this thing are so different that vaccines which immunize you from one still leaves you susceptible to future generations of the same virus. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it Kane relevant and take your thoughts on Vaccines, Covid Policies, etc to the Covid thread. 1 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he did that I'd be willing to try a PTO if he actually was committed to being a better human. How many times does this kid have to be hit across the head with a 2 X 4 before he gets it? He doesn't seem to think he has a problem. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
