“Hey Canucks fans, Evander Kane here. Looking forward to hearing you guys bring the passion and excitement you’ve always had when I was the road team—now I’m on the home team, so let’s hear it,” Kane said from the locker room.
“This was one of the loudest buildings I’ve ever played in. The fan base here is fantastic, they’re passionate, and they love their hockey,” said Kane, who now joins his sixth NHL team.
