No, it's not close either. If Buffalo wants Kane, Cozens or Quinn needs to be included, a first, reinhardt and a cap dump like Montour or Risto (Risto has very little value to the Hawks plans). Hawks retain $2M on Kane.

Didn't Kane beat up a cab driver in Buffalo? Imagine what he would get up to if he was there all year.

If buffalo ever gets Kane it will be for Skinner + or he will be majorly retained and then might get close to the package above. Sabres done wanna trade for Kane to lose Dahlin, Dahlin is alot more valuable

Dalhin? Nobody said anything about Dahlin. Hawks would require Quinn or Cozens plus a first to get the conversation going and likely willing to retain $2M to $2.5M on Kane, but there is not a shot they are taking back Skinner. The entire intent is to free up cap for Chicago for the rebuild, obviously Kane is plenty worth $8m and plenty of teams would love to have him at that price but the Hawks aren't retaining more or taking back cap that is more then 1 or 2 years.

None of this likely matters as it is highly unlikely Kane would be waiving nor are the Hawks interested in moving him. The more likely piece to go is Keith out of Toews, Kane and Keith.

Well... My point is taking on a guy at 10.5 and having Eichel and Skinner plays doom to our future cap when it comes to signing Dahlin, or maybe we won't lose Dahlin but Joker or Cozens maybe Mitts depends on who's left. Ukwim?

Wouldn't you act out if you had to be in Buffalo?

You would hope that Kane and Eichel would together bring Skinner back to form and be able to trade him with some retention maybe or expose him to Seattle. That said, the best options for both side is Reinhardt, Cozens, 1st and Montour (cap dump) for Kane $2.5M retained. You're cap neutral and get Kane at $8M which is a steal for 3 years.

I'd do it without Cozens, send Ryan Johnson...I think in the current climate I could see Kane going for less than he is worth, It also would deplete out future 2 much. I wonder though if Hall would come back if we get Kane. Would be an interesting idea to be honest, I love the guy such a beauty...think he would bring a cup to buffalo, I believe Kane in buffalo would score 100+.

Cozens or Quinn. Johnson doesn't move the needle as much as you know. Hawks need a tier A prospect back and Johnson, I think you'd agree, is a step below. That first round pick, with Kane on board, isn't going to be a lottery. This squad looks to be a playoff team IMO.
