If it's a 3 year deal, and they have cap. Why not 15mx3, so he can be the highest paid player and ruin MacKinnon's year?

If Kane were to sign for 3 years, unlikely, it would be more then that. Also pretty doubtful he goes to Buffalo. Nonetheless, the what if scenario is your point and that's fair

Realistically I think Kane signs in New York because he wants to win.

i doubt ullmark goes back.

Don’t think he comes here unless we make the playoffs this year- and even then, it’s still just a maybe

He’s still a great player & wants another Cup

Actually it's a fair offer for Ullmark....if he waived. Bruins would save 5m in cap (minus 2nd goalie cost of 1m) and be able to sign Swayman long term. Again let's not confuse "trade" value and "on ice" value.

Kane...if he wants "big" money he may not have many options next summer. Hawks, Sabres, Wings and Ducks off the top of my head. Other teams have cap issues, I just can't seeother premier teams that have the cap for him....Florida, Tampa, Rangers, Colorado.

I think Bruins would love to get out of Ullmark deal, and run with Swayman as 1A.

That Bluger signing blocks Kulich and Savoie

I think Florida will get most of Bob's contract off their books next year, so who knows, maybe they could be a player.

Maybe, maybe not. But it will take more than a 4th for a guy that was in the top 15 in GAA SV% GSAA

That offer gets you Martin Jones.

If that’s all they can get for him they keep him. They save that cap hit dumping Forbort and Reilly.

I think it’s 50/50 he gets traded in the off-season. But that offer is a joke. Anything less than a 2nd will be ignored.

Kane will sign a friendly hometown deal with Buffalo. 4 for $26 mil. 6.5 a year. He wants to win a cup for his hometown.
