Evander Kane would be a welcomed addition on a hockey level although there are apparent "character" issues.

Question, Buffalo offers Kane for Beaulieu. Do you do it?

He has to be better than Flynn, Mitchell, Andrighetto or McCarron. Shouldn't be too hard.

He might be better than Mitchell given how Mitchell's play has completely imploded, but I think Ott has like a .27 GF/GA ratio.

Ideally he doesn't play much and somehow helps the team on faceoffs in practice, like Malhotra, I suppose.

Kane is older now though and the Habs have a lot of vets in their room. I don't think "character issues" would be an issue.

Yes. I'd do it. Dangle the playoff carrot in front of Kane's face and hopefully he'll straighten out. Lots of talent.

I never want us to make panic moves, but this deadline is one where we HAVE to do something reasonably big if we want any hope to make noise or even make the playoffs. The current roster as it stands is not enough. Not even close.

I would personally work with duos:

Pacioretty-Duchene-xxxx
xxxxxx-Galchenyuk-Radulov
xxxxxx-Danault-Shaw/Gallagher
xxxxxx-Ott-McCarron

Fill in xxxxx with Lekhonen et al.

- Lebrun = Habs looks for size upfront
- Habs needs scoring
- Many insiders = Habs might be looking to make a hockey trade more than rentals.
- Farber said that Duchene isn't getting traded today

Evander Kane makes a lot of senses for the Habs if he's available.
Only under contract for next years which also makes senses for the Habs
Buffalo gave up Strafford + 2 prospects + 1st round pick back in the days
