Proposal: Kane to the Flames

[jputt99]

First, Buffalo is losing mostly because they can't score. Why would they trade their best scoring forward now ? Second, Kane's value will never be higher than near the trading deadline in late winter. Botterill will move Kane only after this team's season is essentially over, not before. the only way this changes is if someone else steps up and starts carrying the offensive load.

Don't see how we could even fit him with the cap.

Brodie and Bennett are no goes. We don't have any picks to give.

A defensive prospect plus a cap dump for a rental would be all that would make sense for Calgary but I'm sure someone would top that at the TDL.

I think Buffalo would prefer a developing prospect of Andersson's ilk more than they'd want a late-1st rounder at this point.

...why would the Flames do this? No. Heck no.

I'd rather give up Fox or Kylington than Andersson.

Cause he's one of the best ES goal scorers in the league

EDIT: I didn't see OP proposal lol that's bad

We can retain 50% no problem

This stat is no joke

Originally I would have been happy with just a 1st but

Now I'm starting to want more

 

[Flameshomer]

Kane and Johnson for Bennett andersson and lack

That agrees with me where I'd much rather get Andersson than Fox or Kylington.

Uh, no. Bennett's horrible.

Do not want Kane, the only situation where I take Kane is if Eichel is coming with Kane and we get to keep Monahan, Johnny, Tkachuk Dougie Hamilton, Backlund, Gio, and we know that is not happening.

Good thing GMs dont check with you first before making a trade.

 

[CaptainCrunch67]

Isn't Kane primarily a left winger, if so not really a need for the Flames. Plus he's an upcoming UFA. Plus with the Flames having traded a bunch of picks, I doubt that players like Andersson are on the table at all.

I'd say this is a pass from the Flames.

Kane+Eichel for Backlund and you'd turn it down then

Legit logic

So greedy.

This thread is hilarious. The guy has 12 goals in 21 games. He's 1 goal behind Ovechkin. He has more goals than Stamkos, McDavid, Tarasenko, Laine, etc. But some Flames fans don't want him for free.

Too early to judge, I think.

It's not that. I realize that the guy can pot goals rather well, however, what assets do we have for Buffalo to be interested in trading him to us? We don't pick until the 3rd round. We don't really have a decent forward to give back to grab Kane from you guys. I feel like he's a bit to pricey for what we are looking for.

Kane played well last year and so far this year. Gotta think he will be one of the prized wingers sought by TDL

Good you know. Bennett certainly isn't worth his value.

 

[soliak]

Can you tell us again what you think of Bennett?

 

[Lunatik]

I believe your GM is at the Sabres game again tonight.

He seems to be scouting for sure, but there is no guarantee it is Kane that interests the Flames. I think there is a better chance they are discussing Girgensons personally, as I think we could use a 4th line LW, but I don't know what his value would be. I also think discussions about Reinhart or Pominville would be before Kane as we really don't need the help on the left side.

Go home, you’re drunk.

It depends on if Kane comes with an extension or not. With an extension, that would not be a bad deal at all. Kane seems like he has been in the league a long time, but he is still just 26. I also say this as someone who doesn't want Kane anywhere near the Flames because I think he is a piece of garbage.
