Lol. It’s a good deal on ice, but a terrible one off ice.

Even on the ice as hes a locker-room cancer. So in fighting/frustration between periods about to rise 90% for the Oilers

Sure he will get you 20 goals (maybe) but the tension in that locker-room could reach boiling points.

Kane is the exact type of forward Edmonton needed (on the ice). I wouldn't be surprised if he scores at a 40 goal pace playing with Mcdavid.

Problem is he takes a lot of penalties and with the Oilers goaltending, PK numbers (77% or 23rd in the NHL) and defensive woes...

Could also be a big problem

Kane obviously has issues, but lets not act like this was a bad signing by Holland. He's going to go off in Edmonton, he makes them a better team.

I mean he already traded for Keith, so we shouldn’t be surprised when Holland acquired another garbage person.

If you look at the 20-21 season stats, he didn't take as many penalties as the previous two seasons. It's not a guarantee he's going to take a lot of penalties.

You're dying on this hill with penalties but it's pretty much a guarantee his offensive play driving and scoring touch will outweigh any penalties he takes.

WTF stats of the 2021-22 NHL Season
Flyers have had 2 10+ games losing streaks this season
Penguins have won 17 out of their last 19 games
Chris Kreider is on pace for 57 games this season. He's never gotten over 30 goals in a season (before this season)
Panthers have 9 players with 25 or more points this season. In context, Canadiens have 0.
Islanders are tied for the league best in goals against but are last in goals for
