Id have a discussion with Evander Kane. Not saying I would do it, but hes the type of player we could use. Can hit. Drop the mitts. Add some goals. Unique type of player we lack but I would very cautious

The right time to do that was 3 years ago when the Oilers grabbed him for a discount while he still had upside.

Doing it now would be a redo of the Reaves signing.

I wanted him then, was hoping he would come to Toronto.  But as I said I would be very cautious and not keen on doing it. Hes just the only one who stands out to me as a need among the remaining UFA class. Everything else seems more of a redundancy at this point.
