Friedman: On Evander Kane's Future

[thewookie1]

adam fox and a 1st

Not bad

What would be the most you'd give (imagine bidding with another team or two)

 

[Riptide]

He's scored a lot of goals this year and last, I think he's worth a 1st and then some.

He will easily fetch a 1st+. He won't get a top prospect (we just do not see those going for rentals anymore), but he will get a 1st and some other pieces.

Kane equals at minimum a 2018 1st, a B prospect and a 3rd or an A prospect and a 2nd that can become a 1st (Think Pittsburgh)

No one is going to give up an A level prospect+ a 1st - even Pittsburgh for a rental. 1st, 2nd+, sure. But someone like Jarry/Sprong (from PIT), not a chance.

I was speaking from a buffalo standpoint. Idk it's interesting. If he agrees to an extension than you gotta increase the offer but rental price for a guy of Kanes caliber is probably around a 1st and an adam fox like spec atleast imo.

 

[Flameshomer]

I would do 1st+ fox for Kane, but the first wouldn't be until 2019

 

[Riptide]

Never played a playoff game in the NHL and I bet wherever he's traded to he'll be a serious playoff bust.

Just like Hainsey right?

Done deal.

 

[LMFAO]

Is Kane in Vancouver yet?

 

[Pierre Lebrun]

Montreal says 1st + Mete + Carr. By Montreal, I mean this Montreal fan.

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

Buffalo is way over valuing Kane.

I think Kane is a much better player than Andrew Ladd and Martin Hanzal were when they were traded, so I'm not sure how.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Playoff experience isn't necessary

Ask Ron Hainsey

 

[CatsforReinhart]

Kane for a late 1st and a prospect and flip the first for a top 4 or package with another player for a top 2 defender

 

[SabresSociety]

Montreal says 1st + Mete + Carr. By Montreal, I mean this Montreal fan.

Done deal

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Montreal says 1st + Mete + Carr. By Montreal, I mean this Montreal fan.

no lol. Mete is all we have at the LHD spot unless we pull a miracle and win the draft lottery to get Dahlin. Not to mention there's a pretty decent chance our 1st is top-10.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Flames don't have a 18 1st, or even a 2nd. I think someone else will be able to outbid them pretty easily.

 

[CaptPantalones]

Kane is easily matching what Ladd got, and then some. As much as I hope he resigns here

 

[BlueBaron]

I think a scary destination for him would be the Penguins, but I suspect he will end up in the West.

 

[itwasaforwardpass]

There's been some surprisingly decent offers in this thread.

Also surprisingly none of the "I wouldn't take Kane for free" posts yet.

 

[Shootica]

Flames fans, which of Fox or Andersson would you say is the more valuable prospect right now? I've gathered that Fox has higher upside and Ras is a safer bet, but I don't know a whole lot more about them. How would you value them in draft picks?

 

[Howie Hodge]

I would love to say Arizona is a great long-term fit for him and hope that Arizona trades Ekman-Larsson, keller, and the next three first round picks to Buffalo for him.

In terms of playoff-race teams I'd say either Nashville or Minnesota.

No way Buffalo makes this trade unless you throw in a 2'nd round pick also.....

 

[antiqueslivers]

I can't wait to watch what happens to the team that gets Kane.

 

[Der Jaeger]

adam fox and a 1st

Has to a be a 2019 1st.....

I would do 1st+ fox for Kane, but the first wouldn't be until 2019

I'd make this deal.

Montreal says 1st + Mete + Carr. By Montreal, I mean this Montreal fan.

I'd probably make this deal too.

Flames fans: Valimaki and a 2nd?

i could also see tampa or the islanders looking at him to bolster their roster at the deadline

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Has there been any reports , good or bad about Kanes maturity issues??

 

[Shootica]

Has to a be a 2019 1st.....

Flames fans: Valimaki and a 2nd?

They don't have a second to give until 2020. Honestly though, I think Valimaki and a 3rd is pretty equal to Fox/Andersson and a 1st.

I'd make the trade for Valimaki and a throw in.
