Apparently according to Renaud Lavoie of RDS in Canada, Evander Kane does not want to negotiate a contract with the Jets. Lavoie said he heard this from a teammate of Kane's.
If it's true that Kane wants out of Winnipeg I think he'd be a very good option, especially if Parise walks.
Kane would be highly sought after from many teams, but I think he's the type of player the Devils should be looking for. He's only 20 years old, a left winger, and he managed to hit 30 goals last year.
Kane I think has the ability to be 35-40 goal consistent kind of player with a lot of upside.
It doesn't mean much considering it's a weak free agent class, but I think he's better than anyone that's a free agent except Suter and Parise.
I do see Kane becoming a bidding war though, and a lot of piayers, picks, and prospects going the way of the Jets. If the Devils do get involved I hope they don't sell a lot of the farm for him.
So what do you guys think? Would you trade for Kane and what would you give up to get him? Let me know your thoughts on this.
