Mike Rupp: “Elliotte, if we head out to Vancouver, we saw Kiefer Sherwood, and we figured some more to come back. Any updates with Evander Kane?
Friedman: “Yeah, so Kane was form of amused in regards to the scrum around him . Rick Dhaliwal, who’s considered one of the reporters on the market, and indicated that his agent, Dan Milstein, has now has permission to consult with teams. And I believe we’ve known for a while now that they would love to maneuver him, and I believe he would love to go to a playoff team.
You understand, like, there’s Kevin Weekes, I believe reported Colorado and Dallas were up there. I definitely think those teams have shown some interest.
But I all the time hate to say this, because one phone call can change things, nevertheless it appears likely that he is perhaps a post-Olympic break deal at this cut-off date. You understand, we’ll see. They’re playing night. We’ll see if he does something that interests people, but a minimum of earlier ]Tuesday], that was form of the word I used to be getting.
I believe the Canucks are hoping for, like, a third-round pick or something like that. You understand, (Carson) Soucy just went for a 3rd rounder. They’re willing to retain if it allows them to get a bit more, drive the worth of that up. But that’s form of what they’re looking straight away.
Earlier today, I used to be hearing likely after the deadline. Although I all the time hate saying things like that, since it’s very easy to make me look silly.
