Notice his ice time diminishing as well. Nice way to pump him up for a trade eh

Kane is playing the way he always has. He's good in stretches. Then he's bad in stretches.

I know someone posted that kane was holding jack back and everyone laughed and jumped all over the poster, but look at jack's stats with out kane on his line. Look at kane's stats without jack.

He needs to be traded yesterday. Each game kane's value drops.

Don't worry, other teams will assume Kane's production being down is just because he's in Buffalo. And they will assume it will be 5 fold just by being on their team.

Lehner doesn’t suck
That opinion is exaggerated

His stats over the past 2 years say so
And he’s done it on a pretty bad team who has been badly outshot over that time period with a weak defense (at best) in front of him

Do i want him as our goalie?
No

But your hate has gone way too far

- jdfitz77

We have 2 wins with back up goalies .When was the last game Lehner won ?

Shannon - The other name I'm hearing is Sam Reinhart. There have been a lot of scouts at #Sabres games, and you think they're watching Kane, but they're really watching Reinhart.

Would really hate to lose him. He seems to be finally growing into the game . although a year late .

Shannon - there's certainly an interest in Kane from a few teams. St. Louis is a team at the top of the list, Calgary and Carolina are also interested. #Sabres

If Kane was scoring like he did earlier in the season, would his value be going up?

And: I get the supply and demand angle

And : I get that no one can convince you that he's not great, because he was nice to your son and signed his jersey. I'm not trying to convince you, it's your opinion.

I just can't see scouts and teams are as high as they were on him. Scouts go the games to see a player that can put them over the hump and either push for the playoffs or go for the cup. He's not playing like that guy right now. Just my opinion.

My sources have been saying that the sabres are heavily scouting the shared ahl team ( chicago wolves) blues / vegas and that kane was the guy be moved out.

Also nj . Severson
Jbotts and shero are in deep discussions. They are friends, which makes sense as a trade partner.

He's not Eichels long term answer at wing, which makes him totally expendable imo.

He had a really nice game yesterday tho

Listen don't be a smart ass, giving my son a jersey and signing it has nothing to do with it, you know how ridiculous you sound. The guy has high value and is still high on 5-6 teams list, problem is some of those teams can't take him on.

Wake up already.

He is a hot and cold guy, some GM will take a risk on him for him to get hot for a 10 game stretch in the playoffs. We aren't getting the moon for him but I would think someone will give us a nice return taking a risk on him.

He can be effective in the physical game, even when he isn't scoring. The real risk is when will he get hurt?

My point is that his play is definitely affecting his value. Plain and simple , he has been pretty much irrelevant for the past 12 games.

His value is dropping , period

Definitely, he is worth the risk for a 1st rounder in the 20s and a prospect, IMO.

He is a guy that can put you over the top if he's hot. He can be pretty dominate at times when he is on.

He hasn't been moved yet because some teams do not want to give up a roster player for a UFA unless they can resign him, Botterill is looking at 2 different kinds of deals. Not saying they are being offered,( he''s turned down 2 already) i'm saying the players, picks, prospects will be different depending on the deal. I don't see a 1st round pick coming but you never know anymore in this league.

As long as they get some value for Kane that's fine, there's always a GM willing to over in value for a player.

teams have seen kane's production on a very bad top line with the sabres


teams have seen kane's production on a worse second line

teams have seen kane's production on a pathetic 3rd line


as well as special teams


his value is not dropping because his center is larsson instead of eichel


you guys are better than this

A 1st and a young guy not on a roster is my guess.

Not sure there is a lot of other guys out there who can help a team out like he can.

We shall see.
