It's a question that's going to get asked but if this was a black local athlete would the white press in Chicago tread so lightly?

If they were as good as Kane? Yes, of course.

Starlin Castro wasn't exactly hammered for his issues with woman.

Kid gloves?
Pretty much the top story on every single station/show since the news broke. Non-stop reporting. The internet is blowing up with rumors.....and it's caused some people to label every single NHL player as the lowest form of human on Earth.
Not sure there is a kid glove treatment going on here.

There's just nothing to attack him on at this point. There's not even an actual allegation. Until we know something there's just not much to say.
