Teams I think Kane accepts a trade to

Raty is a non starter for the isles.

Fair enough... not an Isle fan. Doesn't change the fact that I think he would waive for the Island.

I think a lot of these returns are unrealistic for one year of Patrick Kane. A 1st round pick and a good-but-not-great prospect is the best I think teams will get.

Do you think Kane gets more or less than DeBrincat? Personally, I would bet he gets less. DeBrincat is younger, cheaper, and will be an RFA, whereas Kane is older, more expensive (without retention), and will become a UFA. DeBrincat essentially will cost 9mil, whereas right now Kane costs 10.5mil. Unfortunately for Chicago, I think that the return on DeBrincat really shot them in the foot in terms of what Kane will get. My guess would be a 1st round equivalent along with a 3rd round equivalent at this point.

I would hope he would, and the Isles absolutely send their 2023 first for him. But for the cap to work Bailey has to go as well, then the Isles could include Koivula who is NHL ready center blocked by their depth and Holmstrom who has developed nicely and close to NHL ready.
