DeNiro Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 San Jose still holding onto being a contender I guess. I'd rather save our cap space for our own players that we draft and develop. Then once those players are in their prime, make some trades and build around them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, for $7X7... Though we do likely have a couple years(and UFA's, more drafts, trades etc) to address it before it really matters, it sure wouldn't hurt add that element to our top 6 while our young guys are getting accustomed to playing here. A trade for Jenner might be a solid option (and could shelter Pettersson at C for a couple years)...but I'm sure Benning and Co. have some sort of plan to address it one way or another. I fully agree. With the Blue Jackets maybe looking for some changes I have mentioned Jenner as a target as well. He would fit in well. Maybe we should of drafted him instead of Jensen. Lol.

Alflives Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Walker and Rintoul discussing Evander. Boy, do they ever believe Evander was not liked by many of his team mates, even back in junior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastal.view Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 7 hours ago, Provost said: Not too much of an overpayment really. In a bad year he is scoring goals in the low twenties, a good year he hits 30... on a good team finally maybe those totals even go up. Really good fit for San Jose and e is young enough that it won’t likely be an albatross until right at the end. do you recall when his last good year was? it was also his last contract year? coincidence? maybe.. . maybe not time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never wanted Kane at all. He is not a player a team wins with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Canucks Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 So, has he officially signed the contract yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcam Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I like the style of game Kane plays, Natural goal scorer, gritty, speed,size.. Kane turns 27 in August so glad we never got into signing 7 million 7 yr deal for Kane as we are 2-3 yrs away from playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scheif16 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 thank you sharks for signing and overpaying him for 7 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Not sure if it has been mentioned. Deal includes a limited no trade clause where Kane can list three teams he would go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example what Kane’s 3 team list could look like if they want to trade him: - Winnipeg - Buffalo - Insert team name here Kane could list those two teams, knowing full well there’s no way either organization would ever want him back, ensuring he goes to one team or stays in San Jose.

cbdoubleu Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I'm shocked they signed him to be honest, but I guess some of the core guys liked him, and the move to continue to be "win now". Meier is maybe another season away from being at full impact, but I thought the Sharks looked better when Kane was out in game 2 against Vegas, and Meier took his spot on the top line. What's the over/under on how long it takes for Kane to be on the 3rd line and Meier in the top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
