Again I agree but that just wouldn't be the case here. The team would be held accountable in some way. I wonder what it would cost trade-wise to get him here and can we fit his contract in?

The beauty of being Jim Benning it doesn't matter what you do , people will scream. It is like a get out of jail free card.. How far could public opinion of JB drop?

Because Kane is a risk I would only go as high as Sbisa and Gaunce. If Kane screws up he is on his way to Vegas, but we still get rid of Sbisas contract. Kane / Vegas, there's a match made in heaven.

We are not on a playoff run


Tell the kid , you have two years left do you want to play in the NHL ? If you do smarten up.

as I wrote that, I was thinking that if Seguin can turn it around, why not Kane?

questions remain on where more grit and toughness is going to come from, and I only see what is in the lineup and ignore the fact nothing is written in stone, players can/will be moved.

can Etem step up his game?

It isn't enough not to hurt the team, he has to contribute more.

I would take Kane . Two years left, if he is a cancer , don't protect him at the draft.

I would as well, high risk/reward. Just what JB needs though, just not the distraction.

a winger with grit and can score...

I'm not sure how we acquire a player like this without moving a high pick, or impacting another area of the club, defense, trade Miller, etc..
