In a perfect world, Kane stays, we fix the D and have cap flexibility. Don't think it's easy

Get Nash for peanuts trade Kane for a defensemen?
- Stripes77

Idk that a "Kane for a defenseman" trade is a good idea...
Who would we get?
Bc if it's a trade like Hall for Larson, I'd pass
Instead,
I'd look to trade something like Fasching + and see what caliber defenseman that gets us

Just taking Anaheim for example...
let's say Kane gets us Fowler
But Fasching gets us Manson & we get to keep Kane
I'd rather have Manson than Fowler in that scenario

Can't imagine he takes such a short term though
- stashu

based on his past off-ice problems and his present on-ice production, there should be a lot of give and take...whether he wants to stay in buffalo or not is a big piece of the equation...understanding jack is the man and will be getting a significant raise is another

I would like to see a Kane Girgenson Bailey line just so we can have our own KGB line.

Based on his play/role you'd think the cost would be reversed. Manson's unreal.

Kane Fasching and a 2nd for Martinez and Toffoli

I get your point, but Manson is very valuable. He might cost a lot more.

Fasching has probably almost no value right now

my guess would be Moulson's a buyout and ennis is moved...

bogo out of necessity stays on one more year

I only say that based on age. With the fast/physical game he plays, I think he only has 1 more chance to make the big bucks, I think his next contract after that will be a downswing.

Of course, he could sign a short term (2 year) and still have time for a big payday after that one at 28 years old

Kane can go from 0-60 in 82

Hypothetical question, Kane says he won't resign and Tavares says he won't resign with the Isles. Is a one for one trade realistic? Or do both teams just trade for the most they can get?

Irrelevant....Tavares is required to go to the center of the hockey universe....so says TSN

Oh yeah, you're that, "Kane has No Skill" guy

Uh oh, what year was Nylander born? '98 right? 13,000 Swedes born in '99 will be conscripted next year. (frank)ing Russia. Sweden can't find enough people to be in their military, so they're reintroducing conscription.

40-60 year on year from December.

good point, he'd be 30 at the end of a four-year extension

No, Tavares is only a year older. Tavares is a C. Tavares has no public issues. Tavares is better.

I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

Dude you're as old as me...zombies?

Let Kulikov walk. I would sign Gionta on a 1 year $2.5M deal.

Re-sign Kane 6 years at 6.5 per.

Buy out Bogo and Moulson, hope Vegas takes Ennis.

Get two dmen, a LHD and a RHD. Both young guys on existing contracts no UFA's. One should be an offensive type of dman and the other a stay at home guy good on the PK. With Guhle coming up next year that would be a nice re-tooled d group.

Improve the PK next year, it's awful.

Get a new coach.
