My money is he signs a team friendly deal with the Bruins, the only USA original 6 left he hasn't played for.
Confirmed with Link: Kane to Detroit
- Thread starter Ricelund
- Start date
Ya seems alot of ppl have written off soderblom. I haven't. I think hes someone who plays better in the nhl with better talent than the American hockey
He wasn't awful a few years back when he was here, gives us a big body we lack.
Think he can get close to the 20 goal mark on a full season. I'd say danielson plays a full ahl season just because we cant have 5-6 rookies at once
This is yzermans doing by overriping everyone longer than need be. We'll have no choice to add 3-5 new kids next season as it is unless we deal some which I wouldnt at this point
Anyways topics on kane so wont be going back and forth a bunch and pissing some ppl off lol

Nothing can really be gleamed one way or another from this. It's all gonna be vague until his decision has been made

Hockey players get PR training on what to say in public. That is nothing more than platitudes and very carefully crafted to say nothing. It's possible he didn't even write it, his agent or social media branding department probably did.

Show me one instance where a player publicly thanks the team and city on twitter (or any social media) for the year, while being UFA and then resigns. Im holding my breath, wait no i wont or you would have to engrave it on my tombstone. There is 0% chance Kane is a Red Wing next year.

So you're telling me the chance he is a Red Wing is between 0% and 100%.

Not gonna lie, I'm very impressed with the vagueness of that message. One can take it as a goodbye message, yet at the same time it could completely mean the opposite.
Thanks for the memories... and The work doesn't stop for me to prove I'm still one of the best ....on another team lmao
Think he used us since debrincat was here to test his hip , if experiment fails at least he went out with his buddy
Now he feels good and it's off to win a cup somewhere. I'd be surprised to see him back

This may be true, but why even post it if his plans were to stay? To me, it sounds like hes made up his mind in leaving.
Very likely he's gone. Better to expect that now. Four days ago NHL.com posted a headline that Kane is "unlikely to return to Red Wings." How often does NHL.com throw out an actual hot take that an organization would disagree with?
Patrick Kane unlikely to return to Red Wings next season | NHL.com
3-time Stanley Cup champion with Blackhawks 'was great for our team,' GM Yzerman says
www.nhl.com
“It was a great year,” Kane said Thursday. “It was fun to be a Red Wing and in this organization. I’m definitely going to have some memories to last me a lifetime."
Yzerman also sounded like someone reflecting back on Kane’s time in Detroit.
“Patrick was great, wasn’t he?” Yzerman said during his end-of-season press conference Friday. “He’s like a wizard with the puck -- his skill, his sense, his calmness in high-pressure situations and in the danger areas.
“He was great for our team, and I think he brought a lot of what I guess they call swag.”
[...]
“We have four unrestricted free agents up front (forwards Kane, David Perron, Daniel Sprong and Christian Fischer)," Yzerman said, "and we’ve got (defenseman Shayne) Gostisbehere on the back end, plus James Reimer in goal. I told them I have interest in bringing all of them back, but we have some restricted free agents to sign (most notably forward Lucas Raymond and defenseman Moritz Seider, each completing his entry-level contract) and they are going to have a significant impact on our (NHL) salary cap.
“It’s really a puzzle.”
Kane said he's willing to wait and see what the free agent market brings during the offseason.
"Yeah, I mean, you know, obviously, I'm a free agent," he said. "So I'm not under contract, but I'm sure I'll just kind of explore the situation here. Talk to my agent, kind of go over everything and kind of see what makes sense to go to one one way or another.
"It's hard to say right now ... really fully understand the situation, but I guess we'll kind of see what happens. And I'm sure my agency will have those conversations and kind of go from there."

Holy smokes now I can't unsee it.
It's pretty obvious that Kane is running for president in November.
