It would be a terrible move in my opinion. Kane is overrated and had a poor track record. Is it a shock he is playing well during a payday season?
Kane would join Monahan, Gaudreau and possibly Backlund as forwards making over $6M. Tkachuk, Ferland, Bennett need contracts the year after next and the Flames need to decide what to do with their goaltending as Smith also is a free agent.
I don’t think they can take the risk of signing Kane long term
