NHL suspends Evander Kane 21 games for submitting fake COVID vax card

Kane will forfeit about $1.68 million of his $7 million salary for this season with the money going to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund.

That’s a heavy fine for “principles”

Missing 21 games also. (Back end of November)

Better just to get vaxxed than use a fake vax card.

Are you talking about the principle of lying about being vaccinated rather than standing up for the principle of not being forced to submit to a medical prescription that he didn’t want?

Falsifying records is never a good thing.

Better just to man up and saying hell no and taking the consequences.

There is a penalty for being dumb.

And Kane paid in full.

Fraud isn’t a principle.

You are right, it’s a heavy fine. (Actually it’s not a fine. It’s a forfeiture, but the cost is the same.)

But what he did wasn’t “principled”. It was fraud. (That’s what Samm was addressing.)

A principled anti-vaxxer would have refused the mandate and stood up to take whatever penalty his disobedience drew. This guy tried to have it both ways. That was shady, not principled.

Tossing out the word “principle” from the discussion, you are correct in saying:

This reminds me of an NFL player who used a rubber prosthetic called the “Whizzinator” to try to skirt a drug test

Onterrio Smith, a Whizzinator, and a Promising Vikings Career Cut Short

Onterrio Smith could have been the Minnesota Vikings' next great running back. Then, the Whizzinator incident happened. Just what happened?

They should tack on an extra 10 games for sheer stupidity.

Smart people just get the vax for free, and not pay the money for a fake vax card.
