The Patrick Kane sweepstakes have been months in the making, with seemingly every team interested in the veteran star, and now, one insider has linked him to a surprising team.
A three-time Cup Champ
After years with the Blackhawks, Kane was moved to the Rangers a season ago, and despite all the excitement, the team weren't able to make it out of the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Now, Kane has spent this summer getting healthy, and when he's ready to return, it's expected that at least half of the teams around the league will pursue him for the remainder of the season.
A surprising new team emerges
Despite recent links to Buffalo, New York, Detroit, Florida and many other teams, there's been few teams in the West linked to Kane, until now that is.
Friedman on 32 Thoughts says a reputable source told him that if he was putting down money on where Patrick Kane is gonna go he would put money down on Dallas.
With a wide open playoff race, perhaps it's best for Kane to go West, and now, Elliotte Friedman has admitted he'd put money on Kane landing in Dallas, and with great goaltending and an elite forward group full of talent and depth, this would make them a genuine favourite in the conference.
