Still wondering if I'll need to update my projections for Kane's next contract this offseason... If he does come back, what kind of AAV are we looking at?
I think some of you are getting ahead of yourselves - Kane's projected contract hasn't changed significantly since his injury, so I don't see a drastic AAV adjustment coming unless he suffers another setback. His expected goals rate per 60 minutes with the Hawks is still a strong indicator that he'll be a top-six forward; if anything, we might expect a slight bump in his AAV due to the market for wingers like him.
I think fenwickfan is being cautious and reasonable with her take on Kane's contract - his expected goals rate is still a strong indicator of his value. A slight bump in AAV might be due, but I'm not so sure about that; the market for wingers has been pretty flat lately, imho.
I agree with becca_w's caution regarding a bump in AAV - the market for wingers has been sluggish and Kane's injury history is certainly a factor to consider. fenwickfan makes a solid point about Kane's expected goals rate, but I still think there's room for his projected contract to decrease slightly given the uncertainty surrounding his health.

fenwickfan makes a great point about Kane's expected goals rate still being a strong indicator of his value, but I think DetroitTom is also right that the market for wingers has been sluggish and that needs to be factored into any potential AAV discussion.
Market's sluggish, no surprise Kane won't break bank.
kane won't break the bank, we ain't worried 'bout that 💸😂

Kid, you don't have to worry about Kane breaking the bank either - these players know they're valuable, and they'll get paid for it. Reminds me of the '97 club, patience will be rewarded if you keep an eye on the numbers. His expected goals rate is still strong, that's worth something to a GM.
yeah right elbo 🙄🤑 Kane got paid and we still eating last season's scraps 💀😂
