1- Sabres aren’t interested in trading assets for Kane, they likely will approach him as a UFA though
2- you’re asking for too much anyways, likely not moving Savoie
3- Sabres wouldn’t need retention, we have TONS of Cap Space
4- MUCH more likely to use our assets to get someone like Meier- who can be a long term part of our new core- not a declining player who’d be here for the twilight of his career
5- Even IF everything i said above is wrong, and the Sabres do want Kane & would overpay like that to get him-
KANE WOULD NOT WAIVE to come to Buffalo (right now)
Maybe- MAYBE- if we were securely in a playoff spot, but that’s unlikely to be the case as we’ll be fighting it out to the end with WSH, PIT & NyI for the last couple spots
He’s only waiving from the Hawks to play for a team he thinks can Win the Cup, and the Sabres just aren’t there yet
I know his family well & this is inside info i know for a fact
Summation:
YOU heard it here first: Kane isn’t being traded to the Sabres
You’re wrong pal
