It is clear that the Bruins will likely target scoring wingers to deepen their roster. Kane, who signed with Detroit last season, was rumored to be in the mix for Boston before the deal was finalized.
On July 1st, Detroit's superstar will officially become a free agent, and insiders say that Boston may approach Kane once again.
He played 50 games this season and finished with 47 points. While he is far from his prime days of scoring over 80 points in a season, his veteran presence and leadership remain invaluable to any contender.
More details will emerge in July, but there is also a significant chance he remains with the Red Wings.
One thing is for sure, Red Wings fans would be happy to see him next season, especially with strong prospects coming up; they could use his experience on the ice.
