Rangers cant afford Kane when he comes off LTIR, at this rate its either Tarasenko or Kane. Probably Tarasenko on a one year deal around $4M if he signs because he can make more next year when cap goes up.

Kane is going to sign midway through the year wherever he wants at league minimum/1y. There is no reason NYR couldn't sign him.

If Senko wants to stay he'll need to take a bigger cut on a 1y than this. It would be bad business for everyone (assuming he wants to be a NYR long term) if he forced them into a situation where they had to move someone important or force them into an inconvenient contract situation. Everyone can be paid in time. We can't have it both ways. If he even costs 3m this year it's too big of an inconvenience.

they actually can because they will acumalte cap space if they don't utilize all the cap room, then they just need to get to around 1.4m and send 1 person down and they have room

Vlad changed agents because Vlad wants $$$$$$$$$.
