"Centennial Bank filed an $8.3 million lawsuit in Florida federal court against Kane and the Sharks over pending debt."

The guy got an $8.3 million dollar payday loan. Borrowing against future earnings to invest in something profitable can be a very savvy move...gambling and buying ciggs with the money is a path to being broke.

Hey, that $1.8 million in legal fees for a counter lawsuit against the woman he beat up was money well spent I'm sure.

Should've called a good financial advisor

Yikes. Don't know what happened there, but the best thing these young millionaires can do is hire a trustworthy wealth manager. The worst thing they can do is hire an untrustworthy one...or your parents if you're Jack Johnson.

Apparently he has a major gambling problem. He is into some Vegas casinos for several million and I read that he said he lost over a million just over the Christmas holidays. This has been somewhat public knowledge for awhile, but I guess nobody could get through to him. Personally, I'd be a bit uncomfortable defaulting on all that Vegas money. I know it's not the old days, but there are still some shady characters in some of those casinos.

"The San Jose Sharks’ Evander Kane has filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, as documents in a California court this week shed light on his prodigious gambling habit. The NHL left-winger is $26.8 million in debt, according to the court filings. He has lost $1.5 million gambling over the past month alone."

26.8M in debt? It amazes me how irresponsible people can be with no thought or regards to their actions. That’s just nuts.

This story likely ends in 15-20 years with a self inflicted gun shot wound

What's even worse: I heard he lost all that betting on his weight loss @ HealthyWage.

Holy crap...I vaguely remember this...but damn his parents did him dirty.

Pens Flyers. DROP THE PUCK

Anyone else excited for the schedule setup of only division teams? Sure it's cool to see every team, but it's more cooler to watch physical, nasty, rival hockey and that's going to be non stop this season.

They need to allow one fan from each team to sit behind the goal and get them liquored up. I need someone banging on the glass

The worst way to start an NHL season is a speech from a damn ref. Put your little whistle in your mouth and shut it

Farabee is off to a good start. Hopefully somebody drafted him or i'm gonna lose it.

Unless its Wes McCauley calling a penalty.

Habs Leafs about to start. Gonna watch the shit out of this one.

My boy Konecny starting his season and my fantasy season off right

It's "my boy Travis Konecny"....get it right.

Farabee is on pace for 224 points this season. I think he gets there

I thought that My Boy was his first name.

FYI Leafs Habs 4-4 with 7 to go. Fun finish coming.

It is, not sure where Travis came from. Must be his middle name

Speaking of Farabee, has there ever been a trade that has worked as perfectly for both sides as the Schenn-Lehtera deal? The Blues rid themselves of Lehtera's cap hit and pick up a piece that is essential to winning the Cup in Schenn. The Flyers end up drafting Frost and Farabee with the picks they acquired in the deal.

No kidding. Now compare that to the ROR trade LOL.

Poor Nick Suzuki. Goes from Vegas to Montreal to now maybe Columbus. He'd hit the jackpot in terms of cool places to live as a young rich guy, but his luck might be running out.

No way I give up Suzuki. Montreal has plenty of pieces to deal. I’d give up Kotkaniemi before Suzuki. First offer would be Poehling, Mete plus draft picks. If it takes Kotkaniemi to get it done then I’d do it but no Suzuki.

Depends how bad the Habs want PLD. Supposedly the BJs are getting more interest than they even expected, so might as well ask for Suzuki.
