From CP via the Prince George Citizen,
If an NHL team wanted to start contract talks with Pat Kane, they’d have to negotiate with him.
Kane, a possible first overall pick in the NHL draft Friday, doesn’t have an agent.
The 18-year-old forward from Buffalo, N.Y., said agents ignored him early in his career and he carries a chip on his shoulder about that.
‘‘The reason I don’t was because when I was a younger kid, the agents would come up to the bigger, stronger kids and talk to them,’’ Kane said Thursday at a prospects lunch with the media.
‘‘I felt that I was kind of left out. The last couple years, they’ve started to come around and really hound me. I got here by myself. I don’t need an agent to represent me now.’‘
