Thread: Edmonton Oilers signed Evander Kane (4 Years / $5,125,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>Firstly: not what libel is. You aren't a lawyer stop using words you don't understand.

Third: the nhl investigated the gambling on games, not the rest, and after the Beach stuff do you really trust their investigations anyway? Come on now don't be silly.</div></div>

If it's a false statement then it's libel. What makes you think I don't understand that term?

"Evander Kane denied abusing his estranged wife after the claim became public and <strong>in a recently concluded investigation, the NHL said that allegations of domestic violence made by Anna Kane could not be substantiated</strong>."

*Clears throat* lol please stop replying

I can see you're emotionally too far-gone already (given the "shred of decency" line), but hasn't this already been investigated and nothing came of it?

Agreed - the injuries are the biggest concern, but really - who cares when his breakout season was?

Isn't it more relevant to ask what can he provide and what's it worth?

Are his career stats what you would expect to see from a decent back up? I think so.

I know it sounds like I'm defending this signing as if it's a bulletproof plan, which it's not, but I'm just wondering - what are the better options? Holtby or Halak?

The only thing I can think of is Fleury at $2M - but I gotta think he's gonna get more than that somewhere else.
