But not necessarily Cup contenders either
Kane doesn’t make sense unless we’re ready to go for the Cup

Goalie is number 1. Fix that and you fix a majority of the team losses we had this year.

Kane in ‘23-‘24 as a free agent makes sense.

Spending assets on Kane in 22-23 makes no sense.

I think I’d spend assets on one acquisition (goalie or top 4 rhd).

Which ever is not filled, goalie or RHD, with assets you need to free agent a guy.

I am not worried about the forward group. It might be nice. But it’s third on the list.

No, it does not. Goalie helps a ton.

We have a cheaper kane named skinner. Money can / should be spent elsewhere

The forward group needs an elite player. Tuch. Tage skinner are all in the halls of very good

Cozens is 2-3 center. More so 3C

I think so
But i don’t think it’s gets us past Tampa & Florida

So it would make more sense to go after a younger talent then Kane
DeBrincat (since we’re talking about Chicago) for example

Him & a 1A goalie gets us to the playoffs too
And it fits the timeline to continue developing our youth & building the team into a real Cup contender

Kane is unlikely to be here long enough for that

It does. But I don’t see that this off-season.

This off-season, fix the goalies.

Add a top 4 RHD. Slot joker as the third pair RHD.

Extend olo and Tage.

Use the year to see what mitts, cozens, JJP, Quinn, krebs develop into.

Evaluate in 2023 off-season and see what needs to be added to the forwards

I think it does, better goaltending alone gets us atleast 20pts this year and that's probably low. Lysowski had a article where the Sabres missed out on a possible 36pts this year.
