Phil Posted February 23, 2023 Author Share Posted February 23, 2023 100%. And Motte-Goodrow-Vesey is a really, really good fourth line, too. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I expect this to happen now. Bring me Patrick Kane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted February 23, 2023 Author Share Posted February 23, 2023 Same. It's happening. My guess is they convince either Montreal or Arizona to jump in on double retention to make the dollars work. Probably like Kravtsov + conditional pick to Chicago, and then some low-end prospect + mid-round pick to either third party club for the help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't even have to be Kane to make that happen. Another RW that can play in the top 6 is what I've been saying for a month. Plops the guys who should be on the 4th line where they belong.

But Vesey actually scores the goals you want to see in the playoffs. He goes to the net. Scores dirty goals. If Kane doesn't pan out I'm OK with getting Bonino or Bjugstad Fixed it for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think there's still room to upgrade. Getting a natural top-six winger gives you better odds of those goals actually going in when you need them to and makes an OK fourth line a good one. It just makes a lot of sense. If Kane doesn't work out, I still think there's value to adding another player who can more reliably fill that role. If they don't, I'm OK with what they have now, too, but I think they can definitely improve still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Ummmm Stephen Valiquette just liked my tweet of When Can I Get My Kane Shirsey? Valley has to be all in on this trade. He can’t be just getting us amped up for nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) So Patrick Kane has 2 goals and an assist tonight against the 2nd best defensive team in the league in Dallas. I’m not sure enough people understand that Kane on a hot streak can win you a series almost by himself.

Sod16 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 He'd be amped up, not having played in a meaningful game in years, but, hmm, would his presence promote playing with more structure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieNextel305 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 7 goals in 4 games. The man is scorching hot at the moment. This could be a beautiful marriage, even if it’s just temporary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieNextel305 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Chicago goes out West after this, I believe. I wonder if it’s possible if Kane talks with Davidson before making the trek out to California? Personally, I hope this isn’t something that waits until the deadline just to give him more time to acclimate. If it happens. I would have to imagine that if Drury is investigating this, he has already spoken with potential 3rd party teams about potential compensation. I don’t think this is the type of situation where we wait until Kane makes his decision, then go out and talk to teams about that. And like others have said, if Kane says Rangers or bust, Davidson knows he isn’t getting top dollar back. I just want this to fucking happen already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieNextel305 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Another thing I’ll add is this. Recently there was a thread up asking how we felt about this team and how far they’ve come since the letter went out 5 years ago. And here we are, 5 years later, one of a handful of teams in the East expected to make a run, and we have an All-Time great who is pining to play for us. I know a lot goes into wanting to come to New York and play for the Rangers. But for a player like Kane, who has been there and done that plenty of times and has the resume he has, to want to be a member of your organization as badly as he apparently does, speaks volumes about where you are in your development. So while we may not know what the future holds both in terms of where we end up come the warmer weather days and even in the next week in terms of whether or not Showtime makes his way to Broadway, I think the answer to that thread about how far we’ve come since the letter went out is obvious. And that is that we’ve come a long fucking way. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to find a 3rd team and they still need to wait until the deadline for the cap space. 30 minutes ago, RichieNextel305 said: Another thing I’ll add is this.

TBH if Panarin were a Dallas Star, Kane would be one right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
