Sharks trade for Evander Kane
Looking for help in their playoff push this season, the Sharks on Monday reportedly traded for a player who might not be with them next season.
San Jose acquired forward Evander Kane from Buffalo Sabres in a move to upgrade their depleted forward group. A person familiar with the move confirmed the move shortly before Monday’s trade deadline. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams hadn’t announced the deal yet.
Kane has 20 goals and 20 assists in 61 games for the Sabres and is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent this summer.
