During his first press conference with his new team Evander Kane was asked by the media if there was much friction or arguments with his former San Jose Sharks teammates.
Kane was quick to shut down the rumours regarding having many arguments with his former club. Kane made it out that he and his team got along well, and was saying, "those were just rumours and things being taken out of context."
There was rumours that he got into many arguments with teammates in San Jose. Sharks teammates were reportedly unhappy with Kane's general disrespect for team rules, including routinely being late for games and practices, not adhering to the dress code, and having poor practice habits like with previous teams he played for such as the Winnipeg Jets and Buffalo Sabres.
Kane replied to the media saying, "to say that everybody in the locker room, I didn't get along with would be just incredibly false. It's less than a handful of guys, but it goes both ways. When there's leaks coming from the dressing room and in the media, I wouldn't say that's necessarily a good act of leadership or being a productive teammate. I mean, it definitely didn't come from me."
This got back to San Jose Sharks Tomas Hertl and he replied today saying, "I'd have to disagree with Kane. I've enjoyed every moment in the locker room this year. The locker room this season is better than before."
Referring to how much the team is better without the issues of former teammate Evander Kane and the things he reportedly did.
Though you may or may not believe Kane, he seems to of left every NHL team he's played on in bad terms, you wonder if that will be the same with the Edmonton Oilers.
