In other news, the Coyotes [not officially yet in post-season mode] should announce their sale before the game tonight.

PHOENIX -- A tentative deal by the NHL to sell the Phoenix Coyotes to former San Jose Sharks CEO Greg Jamison is expected to be announced before Monday night's playoff game against the Nashville Predators, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press.

Blues sale to local investors should wrap up this week or next as well.

Oh.

Here comes a lockout.

But did he tip his cabbie for the ride home?

But did he tip his cabbie for the ride home?

Not this time. Apparently the t-shirt is commemorating his shirtless limo ride:



Just baffling.

Also, name one person in any of those photos who couldn't knock him off a puck.

Ok, it's all just hearsay, but I've seen Kane out at bars (when Dustin Byfuglien lived in our neighborhood) and it kind of matches up with what I've seen of him. Sadly, I was in Madison just a week before and missed all the fun.

The Hawks really need to rein this guy in.

Kane's weekend in Madison.

Kaner was pulling down girls sun glasses and then going "ehhh, not good enough " just straight being a douche right to their faces. Pretty strong move if you can pull it off.

According to one friend he was 'ridiculous' and was just 'pulling random girls to him' and making out with them.

...

Later in the day around 5:30 pm he got in a confrontation with a group of guys over a some supposed anti-Semitic comments he made towards one of the other guys. I was working at the door and they were talking to each other in front of me and across the street. I couldn't really hear what was being said but it looked like a fight was going to break out but the cops showed up and threatened to arrest Kane and then he walked away.

After the police intervened, they were very serious about wanting to arrest Kaner. Fortunately for him, the other party in the quarrel was being equally as abusive to the cops. It turned into much more of a "everyone just get out of here" thing instead of anything more substantial. I promise you one thing, Patrick did have tears in his eyes. I wouldn't equate it to a full out sob, but it was absolutely in the whimper/misty category. I have attached a picture of him sulking. He quickly disappeared.

It's kind of disgusting eveyone trying to sell videos and pics to them though.



Other slow NHL off-season news cycle news:
Saku Koivu inked a 1-year, $3M deal/extention with the ducks.

Hawks fire assistant Mike Haviland. Met him a few times, kind of a shame, he was kind of told he was next in line before Q came in.
