Kane is exactly what we knew he was the whole time. Who is surprised by this?

Kane is a selfish player. His off ice antics are most definitely a concern to GM's, even if he as been clean for a short duration. Also talks of him lashing out in the locker room. His on-ice play is something I would like to have on this team, but it isn't worth what he will be asking. I am not sure any other GM's would have gotten more for him in this situation. We got something, better than him walking. The last few weeks, his interviews were (in my opinion) unprofessional. I get he tried to always end with, 'I am doing what I can for the Sabres now', but any athlete is smart enough to do that. In general, he shouldn't be discussing the trade bologna with the media. It shows his apparent lack of commitment, and he also is throwing the organization under the bus by acknowledging it all. Keep it in the back office. I think it shows immaturity. I wouldn't want his attitude in the lockerroom-- because yes that goes a long way. As a former professional athlete, the best teams I have ever been on succeeded because of a tight team, while the most talented teams I played on stunk! I am glad to have Kane gone after weighing all factors.

Side note- I was told from a source that he 'thinks' we may have gotten Reilly. He knows we were one of top 2 bids. Be curious to find out. It's been really hard getting reliable information with new management.

Would you say that culture is important in a professional sports atmosphere?

But i was told it was impossible for him to fumble the ball this deadline. How can that be?
- TheHank


I don’t think this is a “fumble”

Kane just happened to go for the bottom of what we thought possible

Certainly disappointing
But if that’s all that was offered,
then that’s all we could get

Only reason I see him staying is that he didn't have enough value to essentially have no one to play the left wing for the rest of the season with CJ injured.

Yeah, this disappoints me a little bit more.

That said, if the Mike Reilly deal is true, it's not as upsetting.

He’s not that good. Ahl player. Going to Habs anyway

It's a disappointing return, no other way around it. If he walks from SJ, then their 2nd rounder we get will be most likely in the 50s, the prospect we received looks like career AHLer, and a 4th (we all know what a 4th is worth) The waiting and high asking price most likely screwed us.

But you don't know that. What if before the only offers were pure seconds? Does that shift your thinking? Because you're assuming that we were offered more in the past without anything telling you that other than people on a message board.

There's the chance that maybe Kane isn't as sought after as we would want him to be. He's a good player, is he amazing? Apparently not according to other teams.
