I'd be totally fine with trading Gaunce Tanev and Hansen for Kane...hear me out
- We would be getting the best player in the deal, and while Kane is certainly not elite scoring, he certainly improves our scoring depth, which is something we desperately need
- Gaunce is kind of redundant given we already have Sedin, Kesler Horvat Richardson and Schroeder (actually, they can have Schroeder instead of Gaunce heh)
- as much as I like Tanev, we already have 4 top-4 defensemen with NTC so we can't really afford giving him a raise and pay him like a top-4 to be a #5 guy...and for the record, I don't mind trading Edler instead but I suspect the Jets would want Tanev > Edler
- if we get Kane, then Hansen becomes redundant on RW since we would have Burrows Kane and Kassian
So trading 3 redundant pieces with trade value for a piece we actually need sounds pretty good to me
