Feel free to add your own Canadian NHL cities then. I can only speak from my experience. I was just comparing Canadian cities I wasnt doing a comprehensive list or anything.

Fair enough.

Calgary's 2014 1st is probably gonna be a better player than Kane... No way we include that as part of the deal. Reasonable chance that it is 1st overall.

Party cities in Canada for Kane: Toronto and Montreal. Vancouver is definitely not a party town. Walk on Grandville on a Friday night around midnight and see how much you'll enjoy either the homeless people, drugged or spaced out freaks, or the $20 dollar drinks after waiting in line for 90 minutes after being poured on.

When the heck did TO become a good party town?

That town is Westminster English uptight, so fricking lame. The hot woman ratio is pretty crappy too.

"Well it's 6:45 on a Friday I better get to the beer store before it closes and check out their vast selection of all 7 of the Labatt and Molson products." stupid government run poor selection.

Worst 3 years of my life living there

Do some of the posters have memories like a goldfish? Trade a 1st rounder!

Have you seen and learned nothing in the last 5 years?

People have to realize that "1st rounder" will be a name soon and a person that will take time to develop. If you can get a guy like Evander Kane (not even close to his prime yet good player already) you make that move.

Sven and 2014 for Kane? done deal and I really like Sven.

Now you can play Gaudreau on that line and see if he develop into something good.

Kane-Monahan-Gaudreau Could be a dominant first line in couple of years.

Of course the ideal situation would be to trade Glencross and Cammi for 2014 1sts.

Sven + 2 2014 (non Flames pick) for Kane. Us getting a top 5 pick

Reasons to not like this thread.

1. The value people are giving our 1st round picks. (Kessel/Seguin thing is terrifying)

2. The Need/Desire to pickup a player that wont workout here/doesnt wanna be here. (Calgary Similiar to Winnipeg)

3. The need to rush a rebuild. (Trading prospects for established players)

Ya let's trade away a draft pick for a jerk who walks out on his bills, and locker room problem. To boot he's not scoring either. Pass.

Even further to the point is that he is a LW and we have far too many LW'ers in the system to just go and add another one, who has attitude problems to boot as Brannigans Law mentioned. Pass for me.

More than one way to build a winner. I would argue that LA rushed their rebuild by trading Schenn and Simmonds and so far its paid off. Not everyone is going to get pantsed trading picks and prospects for established players.

With Marchand potentially on the trade list, why not do Kane for Marchand +2nd?

I'm terrible @ trades - probably doesnt help the Jets much (dont watch them, not sure what they need) but Kane with Bergeron could be awesome!

this just screams for a poll. put me in the approves Sven+ for Kane camp. I wonder how many people here a couple years ago would have been saying no thanks to that other Kane, the one who showed up in way too many spring break pictures, beat up cabbies and was trending downwards in offense. yeah, that one with the incurable attitude problems, who is now 1 point behind Crosby for the Art Ross race.

I would be really, really, really against trading this year's first round pick which seems to be destined to be a top 5 pick. Hard to say for sure as the East is so bad at the bottom, but to better prove my point, I wouldn't give up a 10th overall for Kane.
