You can't call in "sick" on the Monday after Super Bowl.

You can't skip a court date because it was your girlfriend's birthday party last night.

And if you're Evander Kane, you can't miss practice.

But that's what he did, and he was suspended for one game.  He will not be bringing his tremendous talent to Tuesday's game in Ottawa.

Why did he miss practice?  Who can say for sure.  But by his own social media accounts, it may be that he was out REALLY late at a really cool event with his sister...

Woopsie.  The game was Sunday night in Toronto.

Unfortunately, rules are rules, and missing a practice is a no-no.  So he will be punished by not playing in Tuesday's game.

What do you think? Does the punishment fit the crime?  Is this hurting Kane, or the entire team?  Has anyone ever stiffed you at work, and you had to cover?
