With all of the scouts at last nights game and Kane playing the way he did I can see teams jockeying for added impact scoring from a power forward sitting up and taking notice. His contract, age and under the radar off ice since last summer all have added to his stock. If he'd take 5/5.5 mil at 4 or 5 years I keep him. I suspect however, he'll be looking for around 6 mil, even if only for 4 or 5 seasons. Every penny is going to count following next season with jack and Sam's new deals. While 500k to a mil per season doesn't seem that off setting, I suspect it will become critical down the road, in 4 to 5 years from now. My final assessment on Kane: Trading him for "the right" return (high caliber LHD for a Risto partner, or, subsequently an RHD OFD for McCabe's partner with an LW B+ near ready [20-22 yrs of age]) would be the ideal scenario. Keeping him is a larger risk at this time in my opinion, especially given his climbing stock. Either way this goes, one thing is absolutely a certainty at this point......this coming bye week is where it is all going to happen, if it does happen. Personally I see Franson, Kulikov and Gorges as possibly gone. Also looking at Girgensons and Ennis as possibly moved.

I wouldn't get ahead ourselves when it comes to re-signing Kane. He's going to want more than the 5.25 aav he's costing now on his next contract. Most likely 6 mil.

Sell......

I was kidding.....lol I was playing on the whole Sakic and Sweeney thing :)

Question: Why haven't we seen Baptiste?

And on that note......... Who has the pictures or video of Murray, Sakic and Lombardi in discussions?

Nice!!!!! On to the next, just win boys!

Wow, over a minute delay on wgr. ....... I'm reading your posts going wtf are they talking about lol

I'm listening on wgr through my ear piece and you could just hear that pipe by ROR

Could of, would of, should of...... Just finish! I'll wait for the nurses report ;)

Its been speculated by Datar that yes, they are. LA GM Lombardi and staff looking at Buffalo for sure. Kane? Maybe. Buffalo had 3 scouts last night at LA AHL game. Come on Kaner, hat trick with 2 helpers, 4 blocked shots, 5 hits and a bloody knuckler that leaves the opponent fetaled at the end of the bench sucking his thumb, crying and heard mumbling "momma, momma".

Yes they were.

7 - 0 Buffalo needs to run the table. They must get secondary scoring from lines 3 and 4 as well as the D.

Maxi-pads are like goalie pads, for women.

Just win boys!

18 scouts, including Buffalo, scouting Red Wings/Blues tonight.

Beer Mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Can the thread title now be changed to "Lehner is a starter, until he's not again"?

So did Murray step in and spank some pee pee's :D

Kane straight up. No way I'm giving them a top 3 round draft pick.

YEA!What he said....... #fake-thread-title :P

Eichel at $7 x 8 Reinhart at 5.5 x 5

I think the full moon and Lehner's bowel movement questions are valid queries. The shifting of the tides, both from the moon and Lehner flushing the toilet could hinder the opposition from getting fresh water. I wonder if Lehner does it pre game in the visitor locker room so one of them have to plunge the toilet.
