BREAKING: The Toronto Maple Leafs Look to Land Patrick Kane
Patrick Kane and his agent Pat Brisson may sign a new NHL contract soon, as his rehabilitation is going well.
As a result, the Patrick Kane sweepstakes may come to an end; however, we are eagerly awaiting the winner's announcement.
"Admittedly a longer-shot contender in this process, the possibility can't be ruled out entirely...
...they do boast an appealing sell in the form of fellow American Auston Matthews. Matthews grew up idolizing Kane, so there could be some sentimental appeal for everyone involved with bringing that duo together.

It's inevitable that this story, which we've been following closely all summer, will come to an end if NHL fans are to remain enthralled.
If he intends on playing within the month, he will need to sign a contract.
A recent article by NHL Insider Chris Johnston stated that five teams are pursuing Kane, with the Toronto Maple Leafs being one of them.
In addition to sharing a roster with Auston Matthews, Kane would be a perfect fit with the high caliber wings in Toronto. With one winger shifted to the center, such as William Nylander, Kane could make the top nine, a dominant unit.
Potential Leafs Lines With Kane
Bertuzzi-Matthews-Marner
Domi-Nylander-Kane
Knies-Tavares-Jarnkrok
A dominant top nine, as shown above, could be just what the team needs to win the Stanley Cup.
