    No interest in Kane. The guy is overpaid and fallen off a cliff recently in terms of his production. Buyers market. You’ll be lucky to get a late 1st or 2 x 2nds. No chance you get a quality NHL ready prospect like Larsson with top 4 upside.

    Thanks for your input. I was wondering how Ducks fans might feel about this. Kane at $2.6mm isn't overpaid, tho. He also hasn't fallen off a cliff (4G in last 7GP). He's been saving himself for the trade as well. I think you'd be getting 1st half of the season Kane: 34P(15G 19A) in 37GP.

    I don't know if he would, but I could see it (small chance). My guess is he stays in NY. However, his uncle is arguably the greatest athlete in BUF history (Tavares was a ball boy for the Bandits) and his jersey is hanging in the rafters. I'm sure there's some appeal there. Tavares' jersey could be hanging up there with his uncles. Plus, he could reunite with Okposo.
