Yes please kane
100% YES!!! WE WANT KANER!!!!
Not just bc the fans want it, but bc it HELPS THE TEAM. He’s a PPG player, is a franchise icon, WANTS to be here…the list goes on.
Clearly the young kids aren’t ready to take leadership roles, they’re too young. The leadership Kyle brought in is either no longer here, or hurt. It can’t all be on Foligno shoulders. There’s one other person in the league that has been in Connor’s exact shoes, that’s Kaner. He handled it and won championships. It would do these young kids some good to defer to a franchise icon, for it to be “his locker room.” And when Kane retires, it’ll be there turn and they’ll be READY. Give the fans something to be excited about COME ON KYLE
No Kane directive from foolish neophyte Faulkner.
Why is it a bad thing that it would go through Kane after a loss? Why is it a bad thing that it would be his locker room? It’s not going through Connor or any of the kids yet, they’re too young. Wouldn’t you rather it be someone w the cache and resume of Kane? I just think it’s such a mistake. Especially if Kaner was essentially shown the door when he didn’t want to leave. Kyle should make that right, I’m sorry it’s just wrong
Chicago Is Always Home For Patrick Kane
I just don’t get how fans loving Kaner and cheering for him is somehow a bad thing…the reality is, good teams have multiple stars, this need that it HAS to be “Connor’s team” is ridiculous… he’s 18, when Kaner retires, it’ll be his team. Fans can cheer equally for 2 players on the same team…we did it for years. It’s just creating an issue where there isn’t one and alienating our franchise’s greatest player in the process
Yes but why this franchise betrayed him let him play for championship
The Patrick Kane discussion is making people dumber.
75 points? The Blackhawks are not getting 23 more points than last year.
Trading Hagel was the turning point and catalyst for the rebuild.
Yes please bring Patrick Kane back home
Of course they should bring Kaner back. And I don't believe the locker room leadship excuse. This probably comes from the top from Danny or Jaime.
Beating a dead horse here… Time to move on and embrace the rebuild…
Kane never should have been traded. Period. That man should have been a career Blackhawk.
Hopeful for the Slag Demi Moore line.
If i didnt know better id say kaner beat the shit outa davidsson at some point. "We need to get guys who have been thru what bedards going thru…" seriously stfu kyle from chicago
Point is kyle from chicagos logic on kaner is beyond dumb. He makes no sense saying crap about leadership locker rooms and fan cheers. Stupid
"We dont want to stunt their growth, so instead of keeping our legends – we'll go out and get other veterans that are the same age to teach them"
Go ask Bedard who he'd rather have on his right wing.. Patrick Kane or Phillip Kurashev..
If he is still at 18 pick Carter Yakemchuk
