Ken Holland has scratched a lot of bothersome itches since arriving in Edmonton three seasons ago. But the time has come, after futile attempts the past two summers, to acquire the goalie who can open the Oilers' Stanley Cup window. By SportsnetSpec:
Still the best choice, Kane has proven he can find success next to Connor McDavid. Kane’s arbitration with San Jose still presents a murky situation, but he’s tough, he can score, he can trade pucks with McDavid, and Kane played at a 42-goal pace last season before notching a league-high 13 playoff goals.
In today’s game, Kane is a unicorn. How many players are there who produce at this level and scare the bejeezus out of opponents?This one is a bit of a longer shot, but it is a situation where both player and team could use each other.
