Rumor: Patrick Kane will put in a trade request on Wednesday when the free agency is underway per Chicago radio insider.

Kings have no cap and he can easily get 8 plus

Next offseason, the Kings will have $17,529,166 in cap space (less whatever we sign Anderson, Durzi, Vilardi, and JAD for) with only Moore, Kupari, Bjornfot, and Quick to re-sign. I don't see the latter three receiving significant contracts. Not sure what Moore will get, depends on his performance this season.

Kings are actually in a pretty good spot cap-wise.

LA has no need for him at the moment

Yes we do, we might actually score goals on the powerplay with him

 

[kilowatt]

Yes we do, we might actually score goals on the powerplay with him

Every team in the league has need for him, I don't get it lol

 

[kerrabria]

I shouldn't be surprised, but I'm still a bit in awe to see it in writing.

Malkin leaving Pittsburgh
Kane leaving Chicago
Giroux leaving Philadephia
Keith retiring
Chara retiring
Bergeron (may be) retiring
Backstrom (may be) LTIRing

Truly the end of a era for those of use who came of age in the 2010s.

Ah, the days when anyone can post whatever the hell they want on social media and everyone goes in full speculation mode.

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

Kane @50% for Nemeth, Kravtsov, Lundkvist, 1st

Is that in the right ballpark?

 

[pman25]

A 1st and turcotte for one year of Kane. No thanks

A mid 1st and prospect who hasn’t yet broken into the league is a pretty light price to pay for Patrick Kane, even if only for a year.

 

[5 14 6 1]

I'd give a 1st + Bourgault + for Kane retained easily. McDavid/Draisaitl and Kane would be insane

 

[kerrabria]

Kane @50% for Nemeth, Kravtsov, Lundkvist, 1st

Is that in the right ballpark?

Kane has an NMC and only has one year left. It's going to be a Giroux situation where the Hawks will take whatever Kane's chosen destination is willing to give.

 

[dssource]

Kane - McDavid - Kane

Easily 150+ goals from that line.

 

[TheNumber4]

Eichel for P.Kane does Vegas chase the shiny new toy?

 

[Little Psycho]

Someone check up on Toews

 

[JKG33]

Someone check up on Toews

I see Toews going to a contender with 50% retention, and looking really good as a 2 or 3 C.

 

[hawksrule]

Kane @50% + Nemeth (cap relief which makes Kane's essential cap hit $3M)
for 2023 1st + Kakko

Just got rid of a reclamation project, not interested in taking back another.

 

[FMichael]

That joke got old 8 years ago.

It's still funny.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

If he gets traded, I'm betting on the Kings.

 

[EastVillageBlues]

If he gets traded, I'm betting on the Kings.

Maybe a dark horse team that comes out of no where,

like the Islanders.

 

[Wreckus]

the teams that lost the Gaudreau sweepstakes will be calling Chicago for sure.

Return should be interesting though.

Othmann/Cuylle/Korczak/Jones/Robertson/Lundkvist/Lindbom
depending on what Drury would really give up for a 1 year Kane rental, the Rangers will still have a full belly of young ELC players with potential, they'll be more than fine. So this idea of Sather style trading of youth is ridiculous because Drury is a f***ing Hockey genius and I have no doubt he's going to thread the needle and get this franchise a Cup in the next 3 years while still being able to retain longevity as a contender for the remainder of the decade

I guess this could work with max retention - for a one year rental Kane probably makes some sense for you guys as he could carry a second line (still wouldn't be sold with Chyttl as your second line center thou) and as an obvious rental probably would cost slightly less then Miller

 

[BrockLobster]

Kane @50% for Nemeth, Kravtsov, Lundkvist, 1st

Is that in the right ballpark?

Oooof. Thats worse than the eichel NYR fan offers

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Does anyone know what time Kouly said this? I have the Xm app so I can just rewind and fine it but im not listening to the entire PP lol.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Other then cap coming back my guess is Davidson is looking for picks as the return

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Kane to NYR is my bet. He loves playing in big markets and wants another cup.

 

[syz]

Kane to NYR is my bet. He loves playing in big markets and wants another cup.

Not if they're focused on Kadri as reported, though it could come down to a bunch of eastern teams taking whoever they can get out of Gaudreau/Kane/Kadri.

 

[Raze The Stray]

Guys, Kouleas isn't some random hack

He was on The Score! He's not totally random.

I'll heed to mother's advice on the latter.
