If I was the gm of San Jose listen to offers if they don't make sense or meet the value the draft is somewhere I can revisit offers from 31 teams. I still have rfa control.

Reading between the lines of three things, I believe Kane will agree to be moved.

1. Kane said several weeks ago that his wife supports his decision to go anywhere.

2. Kane said a couple weeks ago that he wants to do right by the organization.

3. Kane played the other night like he had something to prove (his health / ability). His skating, shiftiness, creativity on and off the puck, etc, were "the Kane of old."

Sure, he probably preferred NYR/TOR for the chance to parlay it into a long term deal. But now he will just focus on where he can go for the next 2-3 months. Where can he win, where will he fit, and where can he boost his production to earn a new contract in a desired place this summer. That will inform his list. Honestly, NYR/TOR being off the table might grow the size of his list and get the Hawks a better return.

He has the support system and resources to make it comfortable on his family for a few months.

They compliment McCabe and like clockwork turns over the puck

Add to that the fact that Chicago may not be a lot of fun the rest of the year with the coming fire sale, and it definitely is not the best place for his to showcase his talents for a new contract / desired location for next year.

I actually hope they don't trade him, he's the perfect fit for the tank.

I feel worse about having Murphy for 3 more years than S. Jones for 7 more years.

That's right Barry, keep pumping Patrick Kane and his value to whichever team decides to trade for him.

I don't know Murphy will help us get better draft picks, Seth is a good defenseman but he seems out of sync with his teammates in the offensive zone, almost always

Nice article by a Toronto writer describing why the Hawks rebuild with Kane & Toews worked and the Leafs rebuild hasn't so far. Basically, better bottom 6 and defense.

I can only imagine one scenario where KD could move Murphy. I guess retain 1/2 salary and send a future 1st or 2nd with him. But I would rather just play him in the 2nd or 3rd pair for 2 more years. Then hope you can get a 7th for him at the TDL when he has an expiring contract.

Does Kane get a hat trick and then tells KD “move me”? He leaves on a high note.

If he played with some NHL level goal scorers, he would easily have 50 assists by now as well.
