Kane to the Rangers makes way too much sense. It's just a question of how they can make the cap work.

I'd love to see Kane to the Sabres, but probably goes as a free agent. But realistically I want him to retire a Blackhawk.

But I think Kane goes to a contending team in need of extra offense. As for Debrincat probably Los Angeles.

Don’t understand why they’d trade Debrincat now. Feel with his team control he’d return more in the offseason when more teams have cap flexibility.

Kane on the other hand makes total sense. A contending team would pay more to get him for 2 cup runs instead of 1. Especially at 50% which I feel Chicago would be smart to do. If they trade Kane they’re going to get a boat load and I think it’s the right decision.

Clickbait.

There’s no chance that sort of trade happens in the NHL over the next 3 days.

(I reserve the right to not look like a fool if such a trade does occur, but I’d be flabbergasted if one did)

Sorry, these reservations require you to use more ambiguous language than "no chance".

Bleh, not interested in Kane to Buffalo from all the stuff I've heard and seen around town about him - seems like he wouldn't fit what they're trying to build. Debrincat though? Sure.

If we were to lose Kane I would surely hope DeBrincat stays.

Team would only trade him if he asked for one and I doubt he will. Doesn't need to chase a ring. Only way I could see him wanting out is if he really wants to play for his hometown Sabres.

I suspect management will sit down with him and Toews after the season to see what their plans are going forward. (both are UFA's next summer)

You do if you want to post it on HFBoards.
yup, years ago I legit had Pete DeBoer tell me to my face that Parise wasn't coming back. I was at a Kitchener Rangers dinner and the talk at the time was the upcoming UFA Parise. Anyhow I mentioned that on here and was still got in trouble. So in hind sight even if the player tells you to your face, you can't use it on here if you are not a verified reporter.
