I hope when he is done, it's on his own terms and it happens quickly and he just walked away. It will sicken me to ever watch him in another teams sweater.
I can’t imagine that scenario, Pat Kane will retire a Hawk and not wear another teams jersey. When his contract is up, Stan will sign him so he never leaves this franchise.I hope when he is done, it's on his own terms and it happens quickly and he just walked away.

Ass over teakettle, Lord I don’t think I ever heard that expression but man did I laugh when I read it.With respect to the bolded, he proved that very early in his career. I forgot who the 'hawks were playing and who did it, but Kane was checked ass-over-teakettle into the bench as a rookie. He immediately got up with a smile on his face and was right back on the ice as if nothing happened.
At that moment I knew he'd be fine with respect to his size.
I am hopeful the same for the rest of the core still here. Although, I saw what happen to Crow. Even the photoshop of him in the Devils sweater was painful. It's different for goalies for sure, but i'm glad he got out while he did.I can’t imagine that scenario, Pat Kane will retire a Hawk and not wear another teams jersey.

Exactly. Kane and El Gato may be small, but they're not weak. Not to mention, El Gato willing to chuck 'em when someone ran Keith a couple years back.When you see Kane(Cat too for that matter)do an interview in their under armor,it's plain to see both are put together like 'brick shithouses' (not all small players are built this way) and Kane's always been as good as Keith in allowing an oncoming checker to take the brunt of most hits and I loved seein' Kane go to the two handed chop the other night after the 2nd bad hit he received.
El Gato got dumped HARD after Kane's goal the other night too so his gettin' one late to pile on didn't surprise me a bit.
I mentioned his size in relation to the media pundits. Kane dominating the OHL was one thing going up against the best in the world was another. Kane never did play small but a player who is 6’3 220 could definitely punish you over time if you were Kaners size. When he was drafted like all number 1 picks you will certainly have your skeptics out there. He know doubt proved them all wrong and still is, that is what is so special about him as a hockey player.Exactly. Kane and El Gato may be small, but they're not weak.

Conversely, the Sedins and Mike "Greg Luganis" Smith got knocked over by a stiff breeze and stayed down.
There's a difference between being small and playing small.
CC in a Devils uniform did not look right in so many ways, but I have to think as many have posted on this subject, this was one of the reasons he decided to hang them up, certainly not the primary reason but it did make an Impact on walking away with 7.2 million dollar contract sitting on the table.I am hopeful the same for the rest of the core still here.

There's something to be said for "it's not how hard you hit, but how many times you get up."
Plus, I think Fiddy is still around on other boards...the guy who thought we should have gotten Turris over Kane.
Thanks for the image. I don't ant to pile onto him needlessly, but I can picture him disappearing into a cloud of typos.Really? Wow I thought that dude disappeared into the ether long ago.

That kid, he drove me crazy.iknowpuck disappeared too......not that I mind...LOL!
He never knew when to stop. The topic would come to a grinding halt and he would keep pressing on to either hate the kid or certainly ignore him on the following topic.I didn't mind IKP that much, but I remember you two having some doozies!
I am not sure who Bob hasn’t had doozies with lol.I didn't mind IKP that much, but I remember you two having some doozies!
