After the infamous bar incident in Buffalo during draft weekend, many on the hockeybuzz forum said we would be lucky if we got a second round draft pick for Kane. Then he got injured and didn't start scoring until late December. At the bottom, he might have fetched a 3rd and people would have been happy. Anyway, if we are out of it by March, I hope Botts trades him for a large haul. Assuming he stays healthy and continues to produce, we should be able to get a 1st plus a good prospect for him.

The other thing is that Kane is 26 and never sniffed a playoff game. Plus he is greedy and is a big city/big lights kind of guy. I don't think there is any chance he signs with Buffalo unless we severely overpaid in terms of tenure and $$. Hopefully i am wrong.

Why? Because he went gambling on Vegas?
I think your making a pretty big assumption there

“He’s the winger we’ve been waiting decades for”

The dude isn’t even top 10 in scoring for wingers THIS season, while off to his career best start.

You seriously don’t think he’s getting severely over rated ?

Yes and yes. Also that was the perception (rightly or wrongly) he left in Winnipeg. I don't think it;s a stretch to say that he would like the bright lights of a city like LA, New York or Vegas. Compound this with the fact that he has never been in the playoffs and the Sabres look like they are still "x" years away from being a legitimate playoff threat. I just think the chances are low he re-signs with the Sabres unless the Sabres significantly overpay.

You’re acting like he’s got 40 Saves
I’m not saying he sucks
I think you’re overrating him though

But u can’t argue he was out of position on the tying goal

Lehner has more rebounds than Taylor Swift

she has had 130

Lehner has been flopping around quite a bit. Looks out of position to me.

You don’t think saying BS like he’s “one dimensional” is underrating him?
Certainly discounting all the aspects of his game where he’s effective

I think you’re reaching
Guys sign in places that aren’t LA or NYC every year
The playoffs thing is a lot more likely a reason than him “being greedy”

Kane is the new Chris Stewart
