If there is a deal involving Kane and Bennett (which I highly doubt), the Sabres are adding.
Kane + 2nd is maybe a more realistic return for the Flames. But does that even make sense for the Sabres?
The return for Kane, if there is a deal, will not include Bennett.

I wonder if a signed Kane+2nd for Bennett could be the deal.
The Sabres 2nd would be in the 30’s so it would net the Flames a decent prospect. Kane would sign an extension so Bennett is replaced on the roster with a guy that puts up more points and plays a similar style.
Buffalo is trying to move forward in their rebuild and probably would prefer adding a high upside 21 year old to replace Kane rather than another pick. They give up a pick because they believe Bennett is a future winger for Eichel
