The Vancouver Canucks are continuing their rebuild, through trading their veterans to acquire young talent, the next player on the docket is Evander Kane, however Kane is not happy with how the Vancouver media is going about reporting on the rumours.
Kane was the centre of attention today during a media scrum, but his attitude made it seem unwarranted.
"Veteran forward Evander Kane is one name to keep an eye on over the next little while as the pending unrestricted free agent isn't going to factor into the team's rebuilding plans beyond the 2025-26 season and is almost a guarantee to be moved by General Manager Patrik Allvin prior to March 6th."-Jaxon
Evander Kane wasn't pleased with his media scrum.
Adam Kierszenblat posted on X Kane's response to the added attention today, he claims that just because one person spoke on his trading rumours growing, all of a sudden everyone wanted a piece of him this morning. And Kane doesn't look to be entertaining the rumours.

It has been recently revealed that the Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche have a lot of interest in the veteran forward. He hasn't produced well at all with the Canucks, but on a better team with players who can feed him, he would be a lot more effective. The Canucks can use that narrative to maximize his trade value and get a decent return. It is almost certain that he will be moved by the Trade Deadline.
