Wow. Just don't replace him with Sidney Crosby... *gag* It was actually a pretty violent crime too.

Wow, if this is true, when your making millions or soon will be, why would you need change on $15 for a cab ride.

That's exactly what makes me suspicious of the circumstances, that and Kane plead not guilty. Combine that with the lack of solid information and I'm not believing anything until I actually see some solid information.
Oh, well if the driver says so it must be true:roll: It sounds like, from the story I read on the Tribune web page, at the very least the charges are blown out of proportion, even the cabbie's lawyer admits that. He even said that robbery is, "a large distortion of what happened," just heard that bit on the local news.

Whether the person who was assaulted and his lawyer thinks the situation was blown way out of proportion doesn't matter. It's how the prosecutor sees the incident and whether it meets the criteria for the charges leveled on Kane. It seems they do or they wouldn't have charged him with those charges. It's a good thing for Patrick Kane that Roger Goodell isn't the commissioner of the NHL. He'd be suspended indefinitely while waiting for the resolution of his case and even then he'd still be waiting to see if additional punishment added.
I think every sports organization should just hire Goodell as it's commissioner.
To me this just sounds like the cabbie saw an opportunity to get some money...he recognized who Kane was, and figured he could get Kane to settle out of court and walk away with a lot more than $13.JML897
Oh yeah, Kane's a folk hero in the area now so that wouldn't surprise me.
