Dabura 12,232 Report post Posted February 26, 2024 5 hours ago, kipwinger said: Soooooo, before we signed Kane I said something like "we don't need him, is he really any better than Berggren at this point". I was REAAAAAAAALLLLLLYYYYYY wrong about that. Woof. 100% my worst take in the entirety of my LGW tenure. Kane is still so unreal. In your defense (and, really, everyone's defense), who honestly thought he'd be THIS good? And I'm talking more than just the points; "He's a poing-per-game player" doesn't capture how huge an add he's been for us. Time travel back to before we signed him. Let's say right after we faceplanted in the Stadium Series. "Bro. We sign Kane. And, bro? Believe me when I tell you this: You're gonna be begging for two or three more years of him. I s*** you not. End of February, the game in Chicago - circle that on your calendar. Dude wins it in OT, on a breakaway, from center ice. That makes it 11 goals and 28 points for him through 27 games played. (He gets hurt on January 14, misses some time, comes back even better.) Eight-game point streak for him. And it puts the Wings at 70 points through 58 games played. The team's fifth win in a row. First wild card spot. A point ahead of Tampa, with two games in hand. Bro, believe me, bro." 1 kipwinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
