Garland would honestly be my target if we are looking for somebody, and preferably I'd try to get Christian Fischer with him too. Still think there is more of a player there than what's been shown so far.

It's not that Kase hasn't fit in with the Bruins... It's that he's been hurt almost the entire time they've held his rights. Kase is on his way to retirement, whether he realizes it or not yet. Off almost the entire season with a concussion. he didn't even make it through his first game back before what was essentially incidental contact sent him back to the beginning of his recovery. The Bruins desperately need a middle six right wing who can score, if Kase was a viable option they'd be keeping him. He's damaged goods. Might be worth taking a flyer if he's cheap, but you can't count on the guy staying healthy.
