Bring Back Patrick Kane

[Rolo]

He doesn't need to chase cups, he has 3 already. Does he really want to bounce around teams at the end of his career like Iginla and Thornton? He has a young child. He can also get paid very fairly by Chicago, as most contenders are cap strapped.

He would be tremendous in the development of Bedard, Reichel, and Korchinski.. He's also a rink rat and would spend a lot of time practicing with them.

Kaner made Max Domi a near 60pt man last season, he still has gas in the tank.



He's also turning 35... He can be an effective player till 38-39.. Look at Pavelski, and Zuccarello just inked a 2 year deal @ 36. He might be around for one of our playoff pushes when Nazar, Moore, Rinzel, etc are in the fold.

It's a long shot, because both Kane and KD have publically stated there won't be a reunion, but damn it would be nice to have #88 with #98

Pretty much this.

I think Buffalo and Detroit will be the top suitors for Kane. Depends on where they're at in the standings.

Kane does not want to come here and lose 50 games a piece for the next 2 seasons.

He is going to do the Iginla and Thornton thing and chase Cups.

 

[Hawkaholic]

I think it's better not to have him around. Bedard would probably pick up Kanes bad habits, I'd rather him focus on being a two way player than just focusing on offense solely.

 

[Mrfenn92]

It’s over.

 

[Salvaged Ship]

The Hawks don’t want him and unless he is desperate he won’t want to come back to a rebuilding team. I would like to see it, unfortunately our front office doesn’t want it.

The bad outweighs the good, and I don't think it would matter, Bedard wants to be like prime Crosby.

He can retire and join the coaching staff then. The FO is finally making the right moves, backpedaling would be counter-intuitive.

How? He's actually won cups unlike those two. There's nothing for him to chase but legacy at this point.

 

[Pertti]

NO

New time, new heroes.

Tom Brady won how many Super Bowls in new england? He went to Tampa with the intention of winning more.

Kane is not signing with a rebuilding team.

 

[hawksrule]

Don’t know if he’d want to come back, but I’d definitely want him back.

Brady wanted to prove he can win without Belichick. That's a huge difference.

 

[cassac]

I don't think he is coming back. I don't think it would be the best thing for the team if he did come back.

But damn, he looked good in that video.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Kane should have been a career Blackhawk and broken the Blackhawks scoring record.

But now that he is gone he should not be brought back...at least not yet.

Hopefully in a couple seasons the Hawks are ready to compete again then you bring him back like Savard to retire here

 

[Blackhawksfirecoach]

honestly, I think we should bring back Tommy Wingels

 

[EbonyRaptor]

I believe Kane wants to chase the scoring record for a US born player more than chase another Cup. But it doesn't matter because neither party - Kane or KD - want him to play for the Hawks.

Time to move past this fantasy.

Kane and Kyle from Chicago have both moved on. Some Hawks fans need to do the same.

If Kyle “moved on” then he’s stupid which I can tell you right now this guy is not that bright, why the Frick would you not want a guy like Kane on your team it makes zero sense. Ya we have heard that whole leadership story and he wants new leaders bla bla bla, listen we need players on the ice who can perform and feed Beddard the puck, he can start leading in a few years when he’s 22 years old and Kane is almost retired. For now and the next couple years he needs to focus and become lethal on the ice and there is no one on this team to feed him the puck like Kane can. We need someone now, not in a year or two, this time is crucial. With Kane he woulda had like 6 goals by now, you tell me which one is more important for his development, performance on the ice or some illusion in the head of Kyle about “Leadership”?

Kane would not have increased Bedard’s goals at all. He is still recovering from surgery

He'll be fine.

Oh no way Sherlock is he really

No need to be an ass. I wasn’t attacking you but you said that Bedard would have 5 or 6 goals if the Hawks resigned Kane. He wouldn’t. I know you like to make bold proclamations and then get super defensive if anyone challenges them. Maybe try toning it down a little bit and interactions here would be a little better.

It’s not bold predictions it’s common sense if you have a deep understanding of the game. Not defensive at all, it was just odd how the point of the post flew right over your head.

Kyle HIMSELF has said that he and the franchised have moved on. Rather you agree with it or not, it is FACT. Kane deserves to play for a contender for what little time he has left in his playing career. Why would he waste it with the Hawks?
