St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted June 18, 2012 Hes a potential superstar that the wings could build around for the future. Much younger than any other option. I wouldnt have any prospect off limits except maybe Smith to get him I agree 100% with you. 3 Red Crazy and newfy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kronstantinov Report post Posted June 18, 2012 Now that the rumor says he wants out, I would love to get him. I just again wonder that someone who might be in our division would trade him to us. Plus the cost. Just watch out, because he might be Holland's target over Parise. It is possible. Not because he thinks it Kane is better than Parise, just that it might be more manageable to get him. I wouldn't sign him but a manageable trade would be okay. Kane would be better for the Wings only thing is they woud have to give up some assetts to get him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newfy 695 Report post Posted June 18, 2012 I would add Nyquist and Jarnkrok to that list, but other than that, it's fair game. Nyquist is 2 years older, and Kane already has a 30 goal NHL season and nearly 60 points under his belt while being fast and a tough player. If that trade is offered straight up I take Kane every single time. 2 Majsheppard and redwingfan19 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Nyquist is 2 years older, and Kane already has a 30 goal NHL season and nearly 60 points under his belt while being fast and a tough player. If that trade is offered straight up I take Kane every single time. Yeah, but there would be other factors in my opinion. Such as if the player fits well in the locker room or if one is likely to be more cap friendly. Sometimes if the player is projected to put up 20% more points in the same position and role... and they want 70% more money, I would pass. I really don't know what a long term deal with Kane would llook like versus a long term with Gustav. I just assume if they had the same role Kane would get you more goals.

LeftWinger 4,953 Report post Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) First of all $5M would be a 1st, 2nd & 3rd round pick... Holland would NEVER do that...Besides, I don't think many players are worth that much in compensation... He would be better than Hudler for sure, but $5M? Whew! EDIT: Of course that being said, Holland did say he would trade for "rights" if the right deal came up! If Holland indeed traded for Kane's rights then I would be very excited! I would ship a 4th, J. Andersson & J. Mursak for his rights...call me crazy! Edited June 19, 2012 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted June 20, 2012 -1 for saying I doubt Kane is higher than Parise on Holland's priority list (if indeed Kane's on it at all), and that I like the idea of Blake Wheeler coming aboard? 1 Z Winged Dangler reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hatethedrake! Report post Posted June 20, 2012 I thought I heard on the radio today that Evander Kane's agent is denying that his client wanted to be traded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted June 21, 2012 From http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=398829 The reports of Evander Kane wanting out of Winnipeg appear to be greatly exaggerated. According to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger, Winnipeg Jets general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff has met with Kane's representatives from Newport Sports Management and dismissed the rumours of Kane's unhappiness with the team.

ChristopherReevesLegs 7,022 Report post Posted October 26, 2017 Thug Kane is having a good season so far actually. Most likely picking up his play to get paid again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
