We Now Know the Five Teams with the Assets to Acquire Patrick Kane
The market for Patrick Kane will be a hot one. The superstar forward is almost definitely leaving his career home in Chicago this trade deadline, and the package Chicago gets in return will be insane.
The Bleacher Report has laid out the five teams with the assets to pull off a trade. Kane could very well be in one of these teams' threads come playoff time.
These teams include the New York Rangers, Los Angeles Kings, Edmonton Oilers, New Jersey Devils, and Dallas Stars.
Although it is early in the season, it is a fair thought to believe that all five of these teams will make the playoffs.
The Rangers would be a great spot for Kane, as they made it to the conference finals last season, and he could be the boost they need. He was also a Rangers fan growing up.
The Kings have a massive pool of young talent struggling to make the team, and they could use a superstar winger to complement Anze Kopitar, and win one more time with their group.
The Oilers haven't been able to find a quality teammate for Connor McDavid in seven years, and Kane could definitely be the guy to explode on that wing.
The Devils have been a pleasant surprise this year. They are analytical darlings, and they are at the top of the league. They've had amazing draft luck recently, and they happen to have a recent 2nd overall pick they don't really need in Simon Nemec.
Finally the Stars have one of the most entertaining lines in hockey, but Kane could be a complement to their line with Tyler Seguin.
Wherever Kane goes, Chicago wins. The pieces they receive in this trade will be foundational for their rebuild.
