This is probably the most coverage the Sharks are gonna get from ESPN this year lol. Only two national games and only one on actual TV
Maybe more if they make a playoff run or even if they make a run for the Cup they'll definitely get national attention
@goosey THEY DON'T NEED a draft lottery. The pandemic shortened years were a low for the Sharks. I believe in them to win it all they may be a long shot to win it all, BUT the team has a bright future. The team just needs to have the physicality which they always lack on the ice, if they keep that up they WILL WIN GAMES and THEY WILL WIN THE STANLEY CUP.
@goosey NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER Underestimate a team that is DEDICATED to come back stronger than ever. San Jose is ON A MISSION to win and get back to playoffs and win the Cup.
@@zanemarte9877 there's barely any star power or leadership. Even if every player on the team had a career year at the same time it still wouldn't be enough
@@zanemarte9877 I think getting another high end prospect would be very good for San Jose. They're not a playoff team and they're not a contender. If they get in, it'll be because the Pacific is awful
Bad contracts and now Kane’s situation. This is frustrating to watch.
Thanks for the upload. Was looking for the full interview. I still want the whole investigation to complete before I decide what or who to believe. I do say there has to be a reason for her making the claim in the first place and I want to know that as well before I as a sharks fan if I want him on the team let alone in the league
Gambling is obviously true he admitted. Throwing games? He was our best player... Teammates don't like/can't play with him? excuses we suck all around. Should we get rid of our best player at the moment? I guess we could lose more kinda use to it now.
He's had recurring issues in several places he's played about showing up late for practices and games, not showing up in proper attire (I don't necessarily agree that there should be restrictions on that but if the team has rules on it and he's breaking them that's still on him), and he allegedly had an altercation that almost came to blows with Rocky Thompson (at the time associate coach). I don't really believe the throwing games thing but if everybody's being held to a standard and one guy just breaks the rules and gets no penalty from the team (also a failure on the part of the leadership) then it can absolutely drag on the team. Despite the fact that his on-ice performance was fantastic, I can absolutely understand frustration from his teammates about double standards.
@@jonmendelson1104 agreed, that still doesn't change the fact that we should be getting rid of his problem and the rest of the players who dont show up at game time. What good is showing up to practice collecting a check and we arent winning. This is why the Sharks havent done anything.
I think you're confused. Your "BEST PLAYER" is NOT the one with the most points. In this case, the player with the most points is also the ONE player who the other players do NOT want in the locker room.
@@steveking8548 kane had 49 points, 22 goals and 27 assists. He led the team in all 3 categories. Second was hertl who already went on record to clear up the media saying he doesnt know how kane played so well going through what he did and the rest of the team needs to do the same as wel as vlasic. If its couture then that’s reasonable hes the captain but they also played lights out together on that line so i wouldnt want that line to be broken up as a GM.
@@steveking8548 Night in and night out, Kane was the best Shark on the ice 85% of the time last season.
goat for putting this
Kane is a great all around hockey player. But his attitude is his Achilles heel
there is something wrong with this guy. He has been a problem everywhere he's been.
Exactly what I was thinking. He was a major problem in buffalo a big big problem in Winnipeg & looks to be a HUGE PROBLEM & DISTRACTION in San Jose. These type of players kills team chemistry kills morale.
Another really good talented athlete that's done nothing but destroy himself his reputation & his teams....but somehow he's the poor victim.
I do hope he will turn it around & better himself. & I'm no sharks fan. I pull for them sorry stars that can't seem to get their act together. 🤦
DW is thinking "best player you better damn well figure out a way to play with him" hahaha!
Of course he has to pull the race card
Yep. The question he was asked had nothing to do with racial issues whatsoever
I actually wasn't against Kane during all of this but once he pulled the race card for no reason other then to be manipulative I said nope.... don't care what happens.
Of course u notice that
@@otuolu7021 pretty hard not to notice
Maybe he brought it up cuz
It’s true. Racism still happens believe it or not
The eyes don't lie bruh
Let the investigation play out first before jumping into conclusions
His team mates still hate him no matter what the investigation says. He still treated his wife , baby, and unborn baby like crap. He needs help. He should quit hockey and get his life together .
He was hated everywhere he went. He was run out of Winnipeg for being a piece of shit, and I've heard many stories
dude this is hilarious. which investigation are you even talking about?? dude is so controversial there are literally multiple issues surrounding him. whether or not they’re true is one thing, him being a dick is already confirmed.
@@HogEnjoyer What is true is: His teammates from every team he has played for do not like him. That tells me he , at the very least, is a distraction.
Refs don't have any problem sending this guy to the penalty box.
A lot can be told when every team mate he has played with doesn't like him. He has no character .
I hope he’s not guilty. Kane was our best player last year and we need him to do well this year.
@juiceboxer100 wife beater? I thought his wife was a lunatic!
I hope he does well this year as well 🙏
@juiceboxer100 your a clown those accusations were proven false
I don’t believe a single word of this interview.
He’s made $60 million dollars and now he has financial problems? How?!!!!!
See what happens when you play in the snow lmao
If Kane threw Sharks games, he did a very poor job of it. In the last half of the season, he played fantastic hockey, he was their best player. He's one of the best power forwards in the NHL and, as a fan, I hope to see more of him wherever he lands.
80% + Of the Sharks games he was the best Shark on the ice.
Welcome to the Oilers Evander
With bad contacts and kanes problems, it's tough to be a sharks fan right now, to think that we were near the cup finals to this, why did this have to happen to the sharks?? Does the hockey gods hate the sharks so much??
When you make "taking players with some issues" a part of your team's identity like SJS has for the past 15 years or so (Kane, Heatley, Merkley, Torres, Scott, C. Lemieux), this sort of thing can happen. San Jose is kinda lucky that this is the first time it caused conflict and drama.
^^^^^ well said. Keep playing with fire eventually something will burn down.
Wherever he goes trouble follows...
He is lying. check his eyes before he answers
Yep. Any body language expert knows he’s lying
Ahhhhhh, Dougy dougy dougy....
The leafs will take you man.. they are clueless
Didnt know he spoke so well, but had to bring the black card up
Just curious, why did you seem surprised that he speaks well?
@@alexbeltran5815 Honestly i didn’t think he was well spoken because he kinda just comes off as a meathead lol. And all the accusations of course… but just my opinion, glad he is somewhat smart, still a fan.
[Chris Rock "he speaks so well"]
I don’t think he was trying to say people have issues with him because he’s black, but more the traditional culture of hockey and how much of a contrast his personality is against the norm.
him being a target his whole career has absolutely nothing to do with his colour. The NHL has been dying for people of colour to enjoy the game and to be successful, its really good for the game. This excuse is because people in America have been brainwashed and played, into thinking its a racist society. EK isnt smart enough to make the distinction
I absolutely DO NOT believe he would bet on his own games.
But, he's definitely downplaying obvious character issues. And downplaying his gambling addiction.
Why? I don’t think he threw games purposefully but why do you believe he wouldn’t bet on himself…?
San Jose should trade him to Vegas lol! Only thing is this guy on the right team could be 40-50 goal scorer a year! And can muck it too! Too bad he got ran out of Winnipeg
I can see it now. The phone rings. Kane picks up. “You have been traded to Las Vegas”. “Oh I’m actually here now”.
That's funny . . . trading a gambler like him to Vegas. Makes sense. :)
No team is gonna want this joke. SJ is in a bad situation, they don't want him there,like the other teams he played for, however this works out, he will always be questioned about this. Should have saved your cash phone for a rainy day lol SJ is probably hoping he gets banned, desperate to get him out of there, somehow get out of this contract, anyone who says he's not playing for free, no but how will more money help? He will just dig a bigger hole for himself, he's a joke
Evander Kane can get his life back on track. Gambelling problem, and partying. U got to get your life on track and fix your problems.
Black player in a white sport?
That was WEAK!
Rumor is the sharks players couldn't stand him before all of the recent allegations, he wore out his welcome in Buffalo quickly and was hated by Jets players (maybe you've heard the classic track suit in the shower story involving Byfuglien). Lots of stories of him dining and dashing/ straight up taking merchandise in Winnipeg and refusing to pay, often resorting to the "do you know who I am" strategy, fights with bouncers and banned from bars, he had an assault charge for choking a woman in a bar, multiple affairs, including one where he paid a woman multiple times to get an abortion. It's not just his gambling- but that's a major sign of mental issues (you have to have a crazy problem to blow thru that much money in gambling losses). Even if the gambling on nhl games is unfounded (considering his history it's better than 50/50 chance tho,) he's just an OK 2nd line, 20+ goal a year winger: not worth it for any franchise, doubtful he'll play many more, if any games in the nhl.
Well put.
Wife just mad she's not getting any alimony
I hope he gets help with his gambling problems for his children's sake. Sadly for him there isn't a cure for being a c*nt though.
It's almost as if once that DW got EK9 and then EK65, this team sold its soul to the devil and we did not know what was coming.
This guy is an embarrassment to the league. Get him out.
What a goof
*Cohen*....
Hopefully he gets this mess figured out bc hes a talented player
Lying through his teeth
great atituide Patrick Kane. Thats the way to go.
kinda funny how both kanes have been involved in serious allegations. patrick's were clearly false but evander may be screwed
@@bigdaddyd6592 Lol I am rooting for Evander. People make mistakes but it seems like he realizes whats up. To change a situation you have to change yourself to change others. Its simple as that.
@@deneshbhaskar3944 I wish all people had this mindset
@@bigdaddyd6592 yeah most people don't which is sad. Shit happens but u got to.get up and change your situation.
@@bigdaddyd6592 Maybe the rape was trumped up by the alleged victims mother. But he definitely beat up that old cab driver.
Sorry paying for a woman to abort a child is wrong. Kane is a womanizer.
I could understand why his teammates want to be traded if he returns. He isn't going to change, gambling addiction doesn't just disappear. Abandoning your children so you can travel across country is stupid. Kane will always be a POS to me. Leopard never changes his spots.
Check if anyone bet if he would get thrown out lmao
He’s lying, can’t look her in the eye.
I wish Evander Kane would gamble with me. Obviously he's not very good at it. And I could use $7 mil per year in my checkbook.
Evander kane is a winner plain and simple!
I hope that is sarcasm!
Classic meathead!
Guys such a beta
He is so guilty and not a very good liar..Terrible team mate to boot. Should be bared from the NHL!
Guilty of?
He is clearly lying but don't jump the gun
Synchronized parasiting is investing.
Get you a woman outside the West. Don’t deal with the drama here.
