Everyday I'm Byfuglien said:
Perry is great. Bobby Ryan and Claude Girioux are very very good. Good names. That's 3 guys.

Iginla? 7 Mil, 33 years old? Coin toss with neither side being wrong. He brings a lot to the game that Kane doesn't have, but he's older and not as talented a playmaker.

- Completely wrong. He is a much better goal scorer, which is what the Hawks need and is a leader. Kane is too busy drinking and diddling girls to know what a leader is.

St Louis and Selanne? Great players, but a 35 and a 40 year old? Does the concept of Kane being 22 not make sense to you? Would you trade Keith for Lidstrom today? Wait, don't answer that.

- Keith has nothing to do with this and actually I might do that. Keith's game has taken a TREMENDOUS drop, but that is a completely different argument. St. Louis is 10X the playmaker that Kane is. I'll give you Selanne as almost done... but he still had a better year than Kane this year. Kane, a playoff stud, as you admitted, can't outdo an old Selanne? Very impressive year!

Grabner...a rookie. Kane had 72 points as a rookie. I understand that you're in love with goal totals, but come on.
- Grabner is on one of the worst teams in the league. You want young talent, here is it. Grabner is a better scorer then Kane. Sorry if that hurts your feelings.

So you named 3 rock solid choices, 1 coin flip/more expensive older guy, 2 geezers and a rookie. I'm giving you a strong 4 right answers.

- Your count is a little off, based off your jaded opinion. And I just spent 10 minutes looking up people. I am sure I can come up with another 10+ people who have a ridiculously low contract compared to Kane and putting up similar numbers.

That's 4 wingers that could be said are better (all things considered... skill, age, salary etc) than Patrick Kane.

4 :clap:

Yeah, let's keep bitching about a top 5, 22 year old Stanley Cup winner :slap:

- You mean, let's complain about an overpaid winger who has shown very below average forechecking skills. With that in mind, he should be an elite goal scorer, which he isn't. He tries to be this "playmaker," which you keep naming him, waaaay too often and doesn't succeed. And yes, he is young so there is plenty of room for improvement. Unfortunately, this kid likes to chase skirts and get drunk, during the season as well as the offseason, instead of improve his physical stature and his game.

Is Kane good? Sure. Is he worth his contract, no way in hell.

Huge save on Ott. Might have been Staubitz who helped with that one. Nope - that was Theo.

what a crappy feeling knowing that Jose Theodore stands in the way of you making the playoffs?

Post a list of wingers that are so much better and so much more affordable that you feel the need to shit on Kane while posting on a Chicago Blackhawks forum.

I'd also like to narrow in and identify the problem with this statement.

People aren't allowed to be critical of the GM or a player on their favorite team?

What kind of a homer-attitude is that? Very lame.
