Kane-Horvat-Boeser? that could be lethal. That would be great. But at the moment, I wouldn't want to take that risk in getting him via trade and him still being the way he is for the remainder of his career. Benning and Linden have talked about character on the team, and they're calling about Kane? Character and Kane don't go together. I don't want someone who will be a cancer to the dressing room, and the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I'd offer Sbisa and maybe a third tops. Not really a fan of acquiring Kane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Sbisa. And that is only done based on what Kane might be, not what he is. And he's got a ton of work to get to what he can be. I think Edler is too big a price; he's still a very good defenseman who eats a ton of minutes. It would be a noticeable hole for us. I mean if they wanted him, they'd have to add more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECKO Canuck Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I hope the Canucks trade for E. Kane we need a player like him desperately on this team right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Luxury Yacht Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I bet Hutton is involved if there is a trade, Buf will likely want a younger player back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck7635 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Kane's skill set is almost exactly what this team needs right now... a fast winger who can snipe and plays with a snarl. Unfortunately he also comes bundled with drama and injuries. I wouldn't be upset if the Canucks got him but I don't like the thought of him and Virtanen being potentially good buds off the ice.

Ossi Vaananen Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Kane should be dirt cheap with his value at an all-time low. I wouldn't give up more than Sbisa + 2nd as others have suggested, and even that might be too much. You have to think he's a big distraction outside the arena, so maybe he's not all that welcome in the dressing room. I don't think the Sabres are dealing from a position of strength here, but neither are the Canucks really. I doubt Tanev or Hutton are even considerations at this point. That said, Grady Sas is essentially saying just the opposite, quoting a McKenzie interview that I can't seem to find: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 What's the difference between Kane now and Kassian when we gave him away? Benning kicks the tires on everything. McKenzies statement is no surprise. What makes a deal between the Canucks and Sabres? A helluva bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocksterh8 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Knowing Jim it will be Tanev and a 2nd for Kane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Relax guys. It will never be Tanev for Kane. Not even close. Tanev is one of best shut down D in the entire NHL. He's not going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good defensive d-man for a current plug with dressing room and off ice issues. Agreed...trading Tanev,or any top prospects/ picks for Kane would obliterate any goodwill the fans would have for current management...Not to mention that Benning has publicly stated he would not be moving top prospects/ picks. The issue here is a player ,that has worn out his welcome off of 2 teams in 3 years....I'm not really into giving much of anything for another teams 'problem'.

Green Building Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 44 minutes ago, Lancaster said: Yakupov got a 3rd rounder plus an AHLer.... I can't really see how Kane can be worth anything more than that. Keep in mind that while Kane is bigger, Yakupov does have more skills, quicker, younger and without any off-ice issue. Benning should just offer Sbisa for Kane + 4th or something. Kane has scored many many more goals than Yakupov. 30, 20,19,19,17 are sample goal totals from previous years. I don't advocate moving our pieces for him, but that's why he's immediately worth more than Yak was at the time of Yak's trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I'm very intrigued by Kane's skill level. I think everyone would be. He may or may not blossom here, but one thing I am a bit hesitant about, besides the return that Buffalo might want is that he might influence Virtanen in the wrong way.
