Why is our top paring Defenceman scratched?
Why is our best defensive forward scratched?
Why are we giving up Quinn for Kane?

This is not good at all

Vegas can hold that 3rd hostage all they want. I bet they'd ask for a 2nd minimum.

Easy no from Buffalo on the Kane trade. Not giving up 2 good prospects and 2 top 60 picks in a deep draft for a rental we might not be able to sign much longer than 3 or 4 years (if he re-signs at all). This would hurt the team and would be felt for years.
