The market for Kane is pretty much every team in the NHL, as TLN's Nick Alberga and Jay Rosehill say on their podcast. Of course, he is linked to Toronto, but every team should be giving Kane a serious look because of the calibre player he is.
How likely is it that Kane will end up in Toronto? Rosehill thinks it's not very.
It would obviously be a difficult thing to sign Kane, with all the cap workings the Leafs would need to do to make it happen. But should they even try? Their roster is studded with all-star players already, and Alberga thinks they don't need him.
Alberga could be right, that it's not worth it to work the cap magic to get Kane, especially when Treliving has been making moves to change the way the Leafs roster looks this offseason. Signing Kane would seem to go against Treliving's new thesis for this Leafs team.
