However hard he has tried, Evander Kane hasn’t managed to provoke much of a reaction from his former teammates on the Winnipeg Jets since last February’s trade.
Kane makes his return to Winnipeg on Sunday afternoon at the MTS Centre when the Buffalo Sabres visit. It marks the return of Kane and defenceman Zach Bogosian, sent to Buffalo last season for defenceman Tyler Myers, forwards Drew Stafford and Joel Armia and other prospects.
With the game now right in front of them, the Jets were presented with more Kane questions today, including the matter of the left-winger saying last year — jokingly or not, we can’t be sure — that he wouldn’t mind fighting former teammates Andrew Ladd and Blake Wheeler.
