  1. I’ll add this. I know most of us didn’t want Kane, but I do feel like this is worth posting here since it was a discussion for a while up until like two weeks ago. If not, mods feel free to remove it. Also, we do play DET on Wednesday, but I highly doubt he’ll be ready to play by then

  2. I never have to see a “we’re getting Kane” “where’s kane” “bring back kane” take again, I used to pray for times like this

  3. We can finally move on from this. Onto hoping Ottawa continues to shit their pants since senko has nearly as many goals as kakko did and only 1 more point than laf has. Also seeing if duclair is available for cheap.

    I think duclair and senko (provided kakko is out for a while) and shift wheeler to center (if chytil is still not at his best or has a set back) would be a good deadline.

    Vatrano reunion as well is probably out of the question since he is tied for 3rd in the league in goals (3 players at 15, 2 at 14, 5 at 13)

    i personally think it’s a big mistake not getting Kane back but everyone has their take i’ll respect it

    I wanna give a quick shout out and an RIP to all the people who bought Kane Rangers jerseys I hope they’re worth some cash in the future but you guys are going to have to coordinate and space out listing them on eBay or whatever maybe start a Google doc because otherwise yeesh

    Thank god. Don’t have to deal w this baggage again this season.

    I think the team needs to be able to make a move at the deadline. Wheeler takes up the spot as a vet and that’s what the team wanted

    Time will tell but I think drury screwed this up. Seems like we could really use a RW now and you aren’t going to find a better one for the rest of the season.

    Good for them! This will lock them into the playoffs.

    Thank goodness. Now we can truly seek to address our needs rather than try to throw out a ‘Galactico’ style roster that doesn’t work in the playoffs. If Kakko is out long-term it opens up some cap flexibility if he’s on IR/LTIR so it will make it easier to bring in a target or targets with the necessary jam and two-way play that is key to playoff success. A trio of possibilities: Ryan Hartman in Minnesota (1.7m cap hit), Mathieu Joseph in Ottawa (2.95 cap hit) & Shane Pinto (unsigned & suspended until January). All three can play Center or RW, can fit under the cap and are all under 30

    Granted, the Wings could offer more $/term than us. But if Kane lights it up with Detroit now, and especially in light of the (hopefully not too serious) Kakko injury, I am going to be irrationally angry at the staunch anti-Kane takes in here.

    But if he sucks, I’ll admit you guys were right.

    I’ll take a Tarasenko though..

    edit: looks like a 1 yr deal….

    If he’s bad and we were right, great we dodged a bullet… if he’s good and we were wrong at least he didn’t go to Carolina or new jersey or toronto….
