Former New York Rangers star Patrick Kane has reportedly been placed on the trade block
Reports have surfaced that suggests former New York Rangers forward and NHL superstar has been placed on the trading block.
Regardless of only be a few weeks into the 2924-25 regular season, the trade talks never seems to go away.
As Joe Yerdon of the Bleacher Report has suggested that three veteran NHL wingers could end up on the trade black very soon.
One of those players being a former New York Rangers, and Stanley Cup champion, Patrick Kane who has just signed a one-year deal with the Detroit Red Wings this offseason with a $4.0 Million AAV cap hit.
Kane is undoubtedly a player who provides scoring depth to any contending teams that wish to make a deep push in this year's Stanley Cup playoffs.
Whether or not this means Kane returns to the New York Rangers considering his health isn't an issue anymore, and after an impressive 2023-24 season, where Kane put up 47 points in 51 games.
Yerdon suggests that Kane could be moved to "help a contending team go for the Cup," as his offensive talent and championship pedigree are well-suited for a deep playoff run.
Kane has once stated that he opted to play in Detroit after living there during his childhood:
But as Kane went through the process, in the back of his mind, he always came back to Detroit. At age 14 Kane moved away from home to play for the Michigan-based Honeybaked AAA program, where he billeted with Red Wings legend Pat Verbeek. Kane fell in love with Detroit, which was just as obsessed with hockey as he was. He adored the Red Wings' history and tradition.
So the answer still stands, would Kane leave his hometown for another chance of winning a Stanley Cup? As many teams this year seem to have a better chance at making the playoffs than the Detroit Red Wings.
